What is Hot in the Window World

The question usually circles “How do we get slimmer sight lines?” Often the issues of having larger glass windows with a more modern look are an issue in our climate here in Wisconsin. 

Sierra Pacific has the answer. They offer a mixed finish window where the frame is a different color than the sash of the window and this can give you the flexibility of making the frame disappear with your interior and exterior finishings creating the illusion of slim sight line.

Sierra Pacific’s window still maintains an energy conscious glass to frame ratio. It has an industrial chic & aesthetic look which is SUPER popular among homeowners. There is no additional charge to mix and match frame and sash color options. The outside has the ability to have a completely different look than the interior. 

With the modern design trend continuing to steadily rise, we are often faced with the question “How can I get more glass?”. While design professionals in Southern climates can happily breeze through an unlimited selection of stunning options, in Wisconsin we are faced with a variety of ever-changing and extreme conditions. Any service professional can tell you that too much glass and not enough window frame here is a bad mix, which can lead to severe condensation, stress cracks, and an overall bad day.

Sierra Pacific Windows has a creative answer to this problem. Their H3 line of windows offers a mixed finish option that allows for the frame to be a different color than the sash of the window. This offers the flexibility to make the window frame disappear and blend in with your interior and exterior finishings, creating the illusion of slim sight lines without sacrificing thermal performance. This provides the industrial-chic aesthetic which is SUPER popular among homeowners, while maintaining an energy conscious glass to frame ratio. As a bonus, there is no additional charge to mix and match the frame and sash color options, regardless of whether or not the interior and exterior color schemes differ, and it is very competitively priced when compared to products of similar quality in the market.
