Big Sky, Montana – USA
The rugged, snow-capped mountains of Yellowstone Club in Big Sky (Montana) are the envious setting for this creation by Pearson Design Group.
The project forges a knowing blend of traditional and contemporary architecture to produce a villa in which expansive glass walls flood the interior with natural light, further accentuating the connection between indoors and outdoors and making nature the true heart of this home.
Creating such expansive glazed walls required the use of ABX® Astec Bronze doors and windows by Astec that was precisely what the designers were looking for. ABX® D45 is a high performing thermal and structural range, properties that were key to creating the soaring doors, windows and glass walls envisaged by the architects, especially as this part of the world has rigid winters.
The profiles are very thin, but this does not equate to small windows.
In this project, large rectangular, triangular and pentagonal openings were used, accentuating the shapes of the building. The ABX® Astec Bronze profiles also fit in seamlessly with the other materials chosen for the villa – stone and reclaimed wood – and bring a sense of airy lightness to the whole building.
