Wire Mesh Railing, BarnHouse, Northeastern U.S.
MATERIALS
Banker Wire’s M22-37 decorative wire mesh was installed in a U-edge profile frame and integrated into the specification for the stairway railing and airy loft space.
Inspired by the rugged look of cattle fences, the wire mesh maintains a refined aesthetic through its streamlined pattern that is on repeat throughout the grand room. Intended to complement the space, the products contrast the industrial metal and exposed wood construction and hardwood floors throughout. The high percent open area of the M22-37 wire mesh offers glimpses of the floating hardwood staircase and allows natural sunlight to flow through the space.

THE RETROFIT
The barn, which was built in 1905, was renovated with an open concept while keeping the original foundation and rustic charm. The lower level was transformed into a great room, featuring living space and the kitchen. The floating staircase leads to an upstairs office and recreation space that overlooks the natural wood interior.
