The Addition of a New Sunroom
The family turned to JKJ Architects, headquartered in Rogers, Arkansas, to design the renovation. JKJ Architects and the contractor, Oconee Interiors Commercial & Residential Design, decided that by using aluminum framed folding glass walls from NanaWall, they could achieve this goal – and more.
“Bill and Patty Burns wanted to remodel their kitchen so that it would take better advantage of lake views and become a center of activities,” says John T. Mack of JKJ Architects, adding some details. “They also wanted to build a sunroom that also would focus on the lake views and support a new, private patio.”
This feature captured the Burns’ collective imagination. “The sunroom was the family’s number one priority in the remodel, so we realized that the link from the kitchen to the decks and new patio had to function almost like a breezeway,” adds Mack. “The folding door function and open views provided by the NanaWall SL60 system achieved the goals of maximizing views and allowing for easy circulation patterns.”
An experienced architect, Mack chose NanaWall because it was the market leader. “I talked to a contractor who had already installed one, and he raved about how easy the installation and operation of the window were,” Mack relates.
The client also had heard about the brand, adds Mack: “Bill Burns already knew about NanaWall’s reputation, as he was in the construction industry.” In fact, the Burns had assumed JKJ would use NanaWall all along.
