When you’re building a new construction single family home just steps from Chicago’s historic Armitage-Halsted District, timeless design is a must. A few years ago, we had the privilege of helping the builders of this Lincoln Park property pick out a full suite of high-quality, vintage-style Quaker Windows that would blend in perfectly with the architecture of the surrounding neighborhood.
Each of the custom-size “Modern Vu” windows and doors feature SDL — or “simulated divided lite” — bars to replicate the look of traditional steel windows… with a few huge improvements over the real thing. Made of durable, light-weight aluminum, this fenestration is more cost-effective and offers excellent insulation against harsh Midwestern winters. We even provided a matching sliding door for the back patio! Sleek, classic, customizable, and energy efficient: what’s not to love?
