Homes by Dickerson built The Founding at Blue Ridge, a custom 19-home community in Raleigh, North Carolina, using 400 Series windows and doors to align with the architectural vision and performance needs. The community was built to match the principles of New Urbanism, where neighborhoods are designed to feel intentional and connected; features such as walkability and ample public space make up this desirable new residential environment. The community design blends modern and traditional Southeastern home styles, and the 400 Series window product line provides the perfect transitional touch.
Known for its versatility, the 400 Series seamlessly complements any home style, making it ideal for this project. The homes feature private outdoor living spaces and windows designed to maximize natural light, creating a sought-after indoor/outdoor connection. With their refined profiles, the windows deliver a timeless aesthetic that balances contemporary elegance with lasting durability.

“Beyond performance and durability, the windows play an important role in the overall architectural expression of the homes. Intentional window placement and scale enhance the symmetry, balance, and indoor/outdoor connection that were central to the design intent. This resulted in a cohesive streetscape where each home reflects a sophisticated and purposeful design.”
— Katherine Trogdon, Design Manager at Homes by Dickerson
“Homes by Dickerson selected Andersen® windows for The Founding to support the neighborhood’s original design inspiration drawn from the architecture of Alys Beach. Achieving that vision required architectural elements that felt clean, timeless, and elevated, and Andersen’s high-end window profiles provided the ideal complement.”
— Katherine Trogdon, Design Manager at Homes by Dickerson
“Featuring a high-quality window, like Andersen's, in our upper-end projects helps differentiate and reenforce our brand.”
— Jon Showalter, Vice President/COO of Homes by Dickerson
