The Hunt Tower, a prestigious luxury apartment building in Gig Harbor, WA, is a shining example of modern design and functionality, accentuated by AS&D Aluminum Balcony Systems, Railing Systems, and Sunshades. Offering residents a luxurious living experience with stunning views, the building incorporates 42 AS&D Aluminum Balcony Systems featuring extruded aluminum decking for durability and aesthetic appeal. The careful selection of AS&D products provides both residents and property owners with long-lasting, low-maintenance solutions that stand the test of time.
Each of the 42 balconies at The Hunt Tower is equipped with AS&D Series 100 Round Top Railings, enhanced with picket infill that complements the modern aesthetic of the building. The Round Top Railing system offers a sleek and clean finish, while the picket infill ensures safety without compromising on style. These railings are the perfect blend of durability and sophistication, elevating the overall design of the luxury apartments while providing secure outdoor spaces for residents to enjoy.
The extruded aluminum decking featured on each balcony provides a low-maintenance, long-lasting solution that outperforms traditional decking materials. Unlike wood or steel, aluminum decking resists the effects of weather, rot, and rust, making it the ideal choice for coastal environments like Gig Harbor. Its lightweight construction also reduces the structural load on the building, ensuring longevity and minimal upkeep.
In addition to the glass balcony railing systems, The Hunt Tower features 18 aluminum sunshades designed to protect residents from the harsh elements. These sunshades not only provide much-needed shade on sunny days, but they also offer protection against rain, wind, and UV exposure, enhancing the comfort of outdoor spaces. Whether relaxing on their balconies or enjoying the view from their living rooms, residents can appreciate the thoughtful addition of sunshades that increase their quality of life year-round.
The sunshades, made from extruded aluminum, are highly durable and provide a sleek and modern aesthetic, blending seamlessly with the overall design of the building. With a long lifespan and minimal maintenance needs, aluminum sunshades offer an energy-efficient solution that reduces cooling costs while enhancing the exterior look of the property.
The first-floor and penthouse levels at The Hunt Tower are enhanced with AS&D’s Series 100 Railings, featuring 125 feet of glass infill and 36 feet of picket infill. The combination of glass infill on the lower levels and picket infill on the higher levels adds a sophisticated, contemporary feel while also ensuring privacy and security for residents.
The glass infill on the lower levels offers unobstructed views of the surrounding area, allowing residents to enjoy panoramic views of Gig Harbor’s picturesque landscape while maintaining safety. Meanwhile, the picket infill on the upper levels maintains the modern architectural style while providing extra protection and privacy. The glass infill system is especially suited to properties like The Hunt Tower, where residents desire an open and airy atmosphere but still require structural integrity and safety in their railings.
