Gordon Kummer: Photographer Extraordinaire

The Heartlands website is full of photographic examples of the beautiful work we do. The photos are beautiful because the projects are beautifully designed and built. I take most of the photos, but the best ones you’ll see on our site and on our showroom walls, were taken by Gordon Kummer. Gordon enjoyed a successful career as an engineer, but upon retirement, took up photography as a hobby. Since then, he’s honed his technical and creative skills all over St. Louis and many other areas of the country.
Here is Gordon taking photos of one of our latest projects,  a fantastic outdoor room.

To see those photos and others he has taken, just visit the photo gallery on our website: www.heartlandshome.com.

Heartlands installs the Clearview brand of retractable screens. They feature extruded aluminum parts and come standard with a back plate (necessary for sliding door installations), hidden magnets inside the pull bar on French door applications, and most importantly, the built-in mechanical speed reducer.
