Bold and Dark
When it comes to window and door designs, we’ve noticed a huge spike in the number of people asking for black trim for their windows. These designs are typically best suited for modern and contemporary homes, but can complement a range of interior designs. With the right touch, bold and dark windows and doors can even look great in Victorian-era homes. What better way to accentuate one of the most functional design elements of your home than to have a bold and dark window trim?
Black window and doors often use the matte effect, which helps to achieve the bold and effortless look that many modern or contemporary styles are aiming for. Darker colours are a great way to seamlessly transition between interior and exterior. This option will stand the test of time and can work with a number of other design schemes. Overall, the bold and dark look is a versatile and functional choice for your window and doors.
Vibrant Colours
At Bavarian, we believe your front door is the perfect focal point to make your home stand out and leave a lasting impression on guests. The trend of using vibrant colours for front doors has taken over the design world. Today’s front door choices are more about bold colour with simplistic designs than anything else. Not only will your home look great, but you’ll have fun while choosing the right colour.
Vibrant colours can also work for windows and other exterior doors, but you’ll need to be careful. Select a vibrant colour when you want your feature to serve as a focal point, such as an entrance, or your design will end up looking busy and overwhelming. For most windows and doors, you’ll want to stick to more subtle colours to complement the rest of your design.
Natural Wood
If you’re interested in achieving a more traditional or even a rustic look for your home, then wood finishes are an ideal choice. Natural wood tones will create a warm and welcoming feeling for your home, whether they’re used for the interior or exterior. A wide range of staining options are available, including wood windows or wood-clad fibreglass windows, depending on your needs.
For those who want their home to feel like an escape from urban life, natural wood can set the perfect atmosphere. They’re a popular choice for cottages or rural properties, but they can fit in any situation. Choose from a lighter wood, like oak or pine, or go with a darker option, such as maple or mahogany.
Metallic Tones
Another popular option for window and door colours, which has emerged in past few decades, are metallic tones. Gold, silver, and bronze tones can add a feeling of luxury and glamour to your home. These tones work very well to complement modern and contemporary design styles. These colours are a great way to achieve that slick, matte finish look, which is a top choice for many homeowners.
Choose from a wide selection of colours and styles of windows and doors to find the right fit for your home. Contact Bavarian Windows to learn more about available products and custom options or to schedule a consultation.
