Sky's the Limit: How Weather Shield's VUE Collection is Redefining Window Design

When it comes to designing a truly iconic custom home, the difference between ordinary and extraordinary often comes down to one thing - the view. And when the view is the star of the show, your windows and doors need to step back and let nature take center stage. That's exactly what the Weather Shield VUE Collection was designed to do.

Ultra-modern. Seamlessly engineered. Infinitely flexible. The VUE Collection is turning heads in the architecture and design world, and for good reason. Here's a closer look at what makes this innovative product line so special, and how Mountain States Building Products can help you bring it to your next project.

A Super Thin Profile for Maximum Impact

The VUE Collection was built around a simple but powerful idea: when the outside views deserve to be the hero, the windows themselves should be nearly invisible.

Featuring an all-aluminum construction with ultra-narrow profiles and industry-leading sizes, the VUE Collection maximizes every view while maintaining the structural integrity needed to support even the largest expanses of glass. Even the hinges on casement and awning windows are completely concealed, delivering a clean, consistent look that never interrupts the visual flow from inside to outside.

For architects and designers working on projects where views are the defining feature - think mountain landscapes, sweeping valley panoramas, or dramatic canyon vistas - the VUE Collection is a game changer.

A Modular, Integrated System That Inspires Creative Solutions

One of the most exciting features of the VUE Collection is its innovative mullion system, which allows window types to be joined together in virtually any combination. Whether you're envisioning a massive glass wall with a unique size requirement or a dramatic ribbon of glass that wraps around a corner, the VUE Collection makes it possible.

The modular system minimizes obstructions while delivering superior structural integrity, giving architects and builders the freedom to create seamless walls of glass, or moving glass walls, that were previously difficult or impossible to achieve. The result? Design solutions that are as bold and creative as the imagination allows.

If you're working on a project in Colorado or the Mountain West and want to explore what the VUE Collection's modular system can do for your design, Mountain States Building Products can help you spec and source the right configuration for your build.

A Designer's Dream: Three Glazing Bead Options

The VUE Collection understands that not every project calls for the same aesthetic, which is why it's available in three distinct glazing bead options:

• Square Bead - A clean, modern look with squared-off edges for a sharp, contemporary feel
• Narrow Bead - Ultra-slim sightlines for the most minimalist aesthetic possible
• Beveled Bead - A soft appearance with a narrow profile that avoids sharp lines for a more refined look

Beyond glazing beads, the VUE Collection also offers a range of anodize and AAMA 2605-rated paint finishes, giving designers unsurpassed flexibility to complement and enhance any design aesthetic. There's even a two-tone option that allows for different interior and exterior colors - perfect for projects where the interior and exterior design languages need to speak differently.

Keeping the Elements Out - and the Comfort In

Beauty without performance is never enough - especially in demanding climates like those found throughout Colorado and the Mountain West. Fortunately, the VUE Collection delivers on both fronts.

All VUE Collection windows have been engineered to withstand the most severe weather conditions. The use of polyamide thermal-break profiles significantly reduces temperature transfer and promotes energy efficiency, allowing the VUE Collection to meet and exceed some of the most stringent energy code requirements in North America.

So while the views may be breathtaking, you can rest assured that your home stays comfortable year-round - no matter what the weather outside looks like.

Environmentally Friendly by Design

Sustainability is no longer optional in modern home design and construction - it's expected. The VUE Collection rises to the challenge, with all windows and doors constructed using recyclable aluminum that won't compromise the natural environment it was designed to celebrate.

For builders and homeowners committed to green building practices, the VUE Collection checks all the right boxes - performance, durability, and environmental responsibility.

Creating Windows of "Wow!"

The Weather Shield VUE Collection is more than just a window line; it's a design philosophy. Flexible. Modular. Ultra-low profile with high-performance engineering. It's never been easier to create custom, floor-to-ceiling glass statement walls that take full advantage of magnificent outdoor views and bring a design professional's vision to life.

The moment you see it, you'll understand why architects, builders, and homeowners are calling it a window of "wow."
