Two large sliding doors seamlessly merge the kitchen with a fully outfitted outdoor living space.
“Indoor-outdoor living and bringing the outdoors in means glass. It means I need to be able to see through things. I need to feel I’m outside when I’m not outside.”
A collection of large, fixed corner windows gives residents a stunning view of Scottsdale’s McDowell Mountains.
To merge the inside of the home with the outdoors, Gardon employed two Series 600 Sliding Glass Doors, one 15 feet wide and the other 16 feet wide, both featuring insulated, low-E glass to improve energy efficiency. Elsewhere in the home are three double sliding doors as well as dozens of Western Window Systems casement and sliding windows featuring anodized aluminum finishes.
The outdoor living space cleanly transitions to the kitchen and dining room thanks to Western Window Systems’ moving walls of glass.

“The anodized aluminum was compatible with the exterior and interior materials to provide a nice accent,” Gardon says.
The numerous large openings and big glass treatments were essential to Gardon’s vision of what a contemporary Western ranch should look like.
Western Window Systems’ casement windows come in all shapes and sizes.
“The sliding doors open up to plenty of outdoor living spaces, they create indoor-outdoor connectivity, and they provide panoramic views in many directions,” Gardon says. “All in addition to allowing in plenty of natural light throughout the day.”
The broad, shaded porch is reminiscent of traditional Western ranch homes.
