When you want to emphasize the architectural character of your home, it’s essential to tie the design elements together in a harmonious and cohesive manner. That’s why if you’re planning a window replacement, your choice of window style shouldn’t look out of place.
While most window types can work well with both conventional and contemporary homes, there are some that work best in specific structures. Renewal by Andersen® of New Jersey-New York Metro discusses what they are.
Bay and Bow Windows
Bay and bow windows are usually associated with classic architectural styles like Ranch, Bungalow and Queen Anne. This is because their curved angles add a stunning dimension to the exterior. To create a focal point, some homeowners top them with specialty windows. They then turn the extra floor space inside into a seating nook or storage area.
Sliding Windows
The sliding window is popular in modern homes because of its neat, smooth lines. Its simple appeal allows for more glass area, which frames your panoramic views while bathing your interior with natural light. This helps create fresh and lively ambiance throughout your room. In turn, you can enjoy a seamless connection to the great outdoors in the comfort of your home.
Double-Hung Windows
Double-hung windows are the most preferred choice in traditional homes, particularly in Colonial, Craftsman Bungalow and Cape Cod. Their timeless grille patterns lend a warm, rustic vibe, which highlights the home’s vintage character. They also now come in a variety of designs to fit in contemporary structures, as well.
