If you’re replacing the windows in your Kansas City area home, you know that you have many options. While performance is always a top priority, design can often be overlooked when it comes to the big picture. While you might like the style of one window, it might not have the right design aspects to mesh with your home. All-Weather Window, Doors & Siding has lots of experience with this sort of problem. Check out these window design recommendations from the Kansas City window experts.
Capture More Light
A common complaint among homeowners is that they can’t get enough natural light to illuminate the inside of their home. Natural light not only makes everything look better and more welcoming, but it naturally attracts people. One way to harness the power of sunlight is to create a window design that captures more of it. Choose a window installment that includes transoms and sidelights to maximize the amount of light that comes into your home.
Use Windows To Freshen Up Your Home
Windows don’t just have to be a way to add light into you home. When installed correctly, they can also increase the amount of fresh air that ventilates throughout your home. Installing roof windows directly above wall windows creates updrafts that funnel warm air outdoors and away from living areas.
Proper Window Placement Is Key
Window placement is very important to get a more aesthetically pleasing look, both inside and out. Installing windows in a way that complements the layout of your home can take a room from drab to fab. Placing a window on a wall opposite your front doorway creates a warm, welcoming effect. When your exterior view isn’t the most desirable, proper window placement can focus your sights on the more appealing part of your surroundings, and keep the unwanted views hidden from sight.
Lastly, personalizing your windows is a great way to ensure that you’ll always enjoy looking at it. Little things like grille patterns, a splash of color, even latches and handles can make a huge difference. Play around with combinations until you find the one that suits your style and your home.
