NEWTON CUSTOM HOME
Contemporary Dining Room, Boston
This custom-built, modern home was constructed three houses away from the owner's original dwelling, which was a much more traditional and ornate structure. For their new home, the owners desired low-maintenance, single-story living with a contemporary feel. The house was designed to showcase clean lines, natural light and large open spaces to house their collection of paintings and sculptures. Integrity® Wood-Ultrex® windows, with a black exterior finish, met the design, aesthetics and energy requirements needed for the project. In keeping with the modern look, the Integrity windows helped incorporate large openings and glazing areas. As with most modern homes, bringing the outside view into the home is key to integrating the house with the landscape. The large window openings let the view be the artwork.
