WINDOWS— KEY MCM FEATURES

Windows in mid- century- era homes are often a challenge for renovators. Older aluminum and singlepaned glass in fl oor- to- ceiling windows can be ineffi cient. Nevertheless, their minimalist look and feel provide a certain authenticity that’s extremely diffi cult to replicate.

All the windows in Frank’s home are original, and he went to great lengths to restore and repair them to get them back in working order, because they're essential to the look, character and feel of his house.

“What many people don't realize is that newer, double- paned windows have a greenish tint and have highly refl ective properties. When you have a home with a center atrium, and one of the main features is to be able to view other rooms through multiple sets of windows or see mountain views, I didn't want to mess with anything that could interfere with the dynamics of that original feature.”
