How Your Next Windows Can Improve Your Home’s Aesthetics

 

Great windows should bring out the best in your home. After all, they’re a very noticeable part of your exteriors. Pick them wisely and you can have a façade that stands out from the rest of your neighborhood. Here are two basic ways of using them to your advantage:

Complementing Overall Design

It’s tempting to make your windows the focal point of your exteriors. After all, when executed properly, it can work wonders for curb appeal. There is, however, the danger of overdoing it. You could end up with windows that totally don’t match the rest of your home.

If you’re using replacement windows in San Francisco as a major design accent, don’t forget to take cues from your architecture. In general, classically styled homes look best with traditional window designs such as the double-hung and casement. This doesn’t mean you can’t use these units to complement a modern house, although windows in more interesting shapes and sizes work better in contemporary homes.

Adding Personality through Color

There are ways to use interesting color palettes without making the visual elements of your home clash. You can, for example, use different shades of the same color. If you have a dark slate roof, pick a lighter shade of gray for your San Francisco windows replacement project. It will help you achieve a consistent overall look.

Brown and black framing look incredible next to creamy white walls. They make your windows ‘pop’ but not to the point that they look out of place. If you prefer understated beauty, you can opt for subtle, neutral tones for the frame of your windows. These mimic the colors of the outdoors and give your home a calming and nature-friendly vibe.
