A prefab beach house doubles as a weekend retreat and a seasonal residence.
When architect Jonathan Tucker of Resolution: 4 Architecture was tapped to design a waterfront home on Long Island with a focus on indoor-outdoor living and views to the bay, he needed both elevation and big glass openings. So, he raised the house and had Western Window Systems’ massive multi-slide glass doors installed.
Because the project revolves entirely around the indoor-outdoor lifestyle, Tucker says, customization options were imperative.
“In our experience designing homes, we are often limited by other window manufacturers’ size constraints that do not satisfy the clients’ expectations,” he says. “Western Window Systems’ capabilities give us freedom to connect large spaces to the outdoors in striking and unexpected ways.”
