Windows provide more than just protection from the elements. They also improve your home’s interior appeal. Homes have different architectural styles, so some interior window designs are only ideal for specific kinds of houses.
Find out how to pick your interior window design with these tips.
If you have a traditionally designed home, consider adding grilles to your windows. Window grilles first became popular in the 1600s and became a standard for traditional architectural styles, such as Cape Cod, Colonial, New English and Gothic. Pair these grilles with leaded or stained glass, and your interiors will look distinct. Additionally, double-hung and bay windows are also suitable for these kinds of homes.
The interiors of modern homes are typically designed with sleek and crisp tones as well as minimalistic features that focus on creating a simple yet sophisticated appeal. To make your window design blend well with this type of home design, consider windows with larger glass areas that provide an unobstructed view of the outside. Picture and casement windows are one of the most ideal choices for modern homes since they have a simple appearance and can enhance a room’s appeal without overpowering other design elements.
Regardless of what kind of design your interiors have, window shapes play a significant role in their overall appeal. Some traditional homes look good with circular or arching windows while modern homes create more impact using the clean lines of square or rectangular windows.
Adequate illumination is also important. Too much sunlight can make a room too bright and expose your flooring and other surfaces to ultraviolet (UV) rays, which can make their colors fade. Meanwhile, too little sunlight can negatively impact the ambiance of your interiors.
