It seems that the colour of the windows does not matter, and many people emphasise that the most important thing is the parameters of the windows. However, it is worth mentioning that it is the colour of the windows that we notice at the very beginning and that catches our eye. More and more often, customers are abandoning traditional white and choosing more daring proposals. A small change can significantly alter the appearance of the entire house and give it a certain atmosphere or liven it up. Over the years, customers’ attitudes towards window frames have changed.
The importance of window colouring
In the past, windows were primarily intended to protect against the cold and provide security. Back then, nobody thought about the aesthetic value or style of windows. Today, customers perceive the issue of window frames in a completely different way. We want to feel good in our interiors and achieve a coherent style. The appearance of a house not only influences its perception, but also our comfort and contributes to relaxation. All elements, even the colour of the windows, should therefore be well matched.
Colour matching the facade
The style of the window joinery and its colour scheme must match the building’s facade. It is important that the colour of the windows and the facade match and form an aesthetically pleasing whole. Windows are viewed from both the outside and inside of the building. The chosen colour and material often match the building’s facade, but do not harmonise with the style of the apartment. The solution is to buy two-colour windows, which the seller offers. We will then make sure that the styling of the facade and interior of the house is consistent.
Windows matching the interior
Curtains are used less and less often. The colour of the windows is therefore becoming more and more important because it will be more visible. For bold interior designs, original window frames and colours will work well. Wooden window frames are perfect for Provençal, Scandinavian or rustic styles. The colour of the window frames should be as similar as possible to the colour of the furniture and flooring. Loft-style windows have metal frames or frames with muntins.
What colours are in fashion?
White window frames have been the most popular colour in recent years. However, this trend is changing and customers are starting to show an interest in other colours. Customers often choose coloured frames or frames with a wood effect, as well as aluminium and steel. Customers often opt for industrial-style windows. In this case, dark grey is a great choice. The offer also includes more decisive and saturated colours, e.g. dark green, red or navy blue. There is also a wide range of wood-inspired colours.
Invisible window joints and fittings
When planning to buy windows, there is one seemingly insignificant element that should be taken into consideration. We are talking about the corner joints of the windows. In the case of traditional welds, the joint is very conspicuous. In modern windows, manufacturers use practically invisible welds. Fittings with concealed hinges are also valued, as they significantly improve the aesthetics of windows. Invisible joints and fittings can be matched to any window colour and maintain a very aesthetic appearance of the joinery.
