HOW TO INTEGRATE DIFFERENT WINDOW STYLES

If you’re thinking of getting new windows for your home or company, this might be a great opportunity to give it a new look and boost its curb appeal. Some homeowners maintain their existing look, while others take advantage of the ability to incorporate some personality with different window styles.

Should you choose only one window type from the many options available, or do you switch up? Here’s what our experts had to say.

Windows With The Best Compatibility

Rather than combining window styles just for the sake of it, think of how practical you want them to be. Although you can choose a particular design, such as uPVC casement windows, you may experiment with various designs to make each room as functional as possible. This covers top and side hung windows, as well as the best glazing for bathrooms, such as frosted glass. Bay or bow windows are also options for large glazed areas in your front bedroom and lounge.

Combining Different Window Styles

When it comes to the appearance of the walls, maintaining some consistency is a smart idea. For instance, you may want to match the frame colours, use a single material (such as uPVC or aluminium), or have Georgian bars as a feature. Windows can be modified in a variety of ways to achieve the look you like, including chamfered or ovolo profiles, various colour finishes, and hardware. Keep to an overarching pattern that complements the décor of your home when combining styles. You can then create a mental image of the best window form for each room. Although sticking to one design will help you develop a sense of cohesion in your house, don’t be afraid to experiment in certain places if there’s a good purpose.

Choosing A New Layout For Your Windows

It’s not uncommon for homeowners to use the same style of window they’ve already had when replacing their frames. Some people think it’s a gamble to adjust something that works, so you should consider if the current windows are suitable for your needs. Although replacing the windows will solve many of the problems associated with older styles, it doesn’t mean you can’t consider the desired look and functionality. There are several common window styles to choose from, including sash windows, casement windows, bay windows, tilt and turn designs, fixed pane windows, and timber window alternatives.
