Flush-to-Wall: Transforming Doors into Architectural Chameleons

 | Sponsored Content

Creating an unbroken line between floor and ceiling is one of the most elegant ways to manipulate the spatial qualities of a contemporary interior. Floor-to-ceiling glass is a recurrent motif in the modern high-rise home, offering views out to some of the most spectacular skylines in the world. Full-height doors, meanwhile, are just as contemporary and sensational, but have more nuance and engineering involved. They don't draw the eye outside and beyond a space; instead, they create an immediate impact when you enter it. Instead of creating a frame to pass through, from room to room, these doors rise vertically and occupy the whole span of a wall. They represent cutting-edge holistic interior architecture, creating a sweeping, art-directed shift as you glide through them.
