WINDOWS: MULTI SLIDE:
Pocket sliders, disappearing glass, multi-slide…whatever you call them, they really are becoming a mainstay for luxury San Diego homeowners who want to enjoy all that our spectacular locale has to offer. What distinguishes the Norwood 3050 from the pack, in addition to the fact that Fleetwood is considered by many to be the most advanced and innovative in luxury window systems, is the “hidden threshold” tracking system which creates a truly seamless alfresco environment. The narrow lines of the design keep the focus all on the view and not the doors themselves. This way they virtually disappear even when closed…I like to call them magic windows.
Fleetwood is carried locally at Suncoast Window & Door

FLOORS:
Shades of gray
Things in flooring these days are not so much black and white as various shades of gray. Bleached or whitewashed shades of Maple, Hickory, Oak and Bamboo are trending with gray being the new black so to speak. These selections from Armstrong® in engineered wood can be a great choice for basements or bathrooms where moisture is a concern. For those who want their floors to have some history, the American Barn Collection from Vintage Wood Floors are handcrafted from old barns and buildings, a dark gray patina that just gets better with age.
