Banker Wire had the great pleasure of fabricating custom wire mesh panels for this beautiful Montana home. The S-15 stainless steel woven wire mesh was cut on a 45 degree angle to achieve a diamond orientation. The diamond mesh was then framed with 1/8" stainless steel flat bar to allow the frame to reveal itself once the cabinet maker installed the mesh panel into the door openings.
The S-15 product is a flat wire intercrimp wire mesh pattern that really grabs light and reflects it in a most beautiful and unique way to create a major impact. Inspired by a turn of the century home restoration project that we did where this sort of mesh was commonly used as radiant water heater grilles, the S-15 wire mesh is now classic in both the old and modern design spaces. Alternative spacing and pattern options are possible.
A representative of -Carl Erickson Associates stated "Banker Wire was used in this premier ski home to enhance the striking modern interiors in their play against a more traditional timber and stone environment. The owner's lifestyle and tastes readily harmonize with the strength, craftsmanship, and sparkle of the wire fabric panels. Whether during the day when it evokes the pristine and crystalline snow and ice, or at night when the warm glow of the soft ambient lighting dances on the texture of the weave, the sophisticated refinement of the home is pronounced with the Banker Wire panels."
This project in Big Sky, Montana, uses decorative wire mesh in the kitchen cabinetry as a prime example of how creative materials can really push the boundaries of interior design. Rather than just an artistic gesture, this clever design move increases the aesthetic appeal of the kitchen and adds some practical benefits that raise the functionality of the space as a whole. This kitchen has been perfectly poised between the timeless and the contemporary—standing out as an epitome of innovative kitchen design—by the conjoining of modern and rustic elements. Whether whipping up a meal or amusing guests, wire mesh cabinets will guarantee a kitchen that is as beautiful to look at as it will be functional.
