Set along a scenic river surrounded by trees and mountains, The Beach Restaurant and Riverside Pavilion in Buena Vista, CO, was envisioned as a space that fully embraces its natural setting. The goal was to blur the line between inside and out, allowing guests to experience the sights, sounds, and atmosphere of the outdoors while enjoying the comfort of an interior space. Completed by Buena Vista Contractors, the design called for multiple expansive NanaWall folding glass doors to create a welcoming, bright, and airy dining environment.

Riverside Pavilion Brings the Outdoors in with Seamless Glass Wall Design
Elegant Flexibility for Every Season with Folding Glass Doors
Five NanaWall Generation 4 folding glass doors were selected for their ability to merge elegance with functionality. When fully open, the 10-foot-tall, three-panel glass walls dissolve the boundary between the pavilion and its riverside surroundings, creating a seamless flow of air, light, and energy throughout the venue. When closed, the double-glazed panels provide thermal comfort and protection while maintaining unobstructed views of the flowing river outside.
Seamless Connection, Year-Round Comfort
“NanaWall offered a beautiful window that had the functionality we were looking for,” says the Business Owner. “The doors are elegant and add a level of class to our structure. The doors are stunning, both open and closed.” Throughout the year, whether the doors are open or closed, patrons enjoy dining in an immersive venue that welcomes the beauty of the outdoors, keeping them returning season after season.
“The installation of the folding glass doors created a seamless flow in and out of our pavilion. The guests can feel like they are outside while seated indoors. When the weather changes, we can close the doors and still enjoy the surroundings,” — Business Owner
