Window Aesthetics
If you’ve noticed that your home feels dark, gloomy and somewhat claustrophobic, new windows can provide some much-needed relief. They can make the rooms look more open and can make all the difference in the world in terms of lighting. You can create bright rooms using natural light to create a friendly and warm tone throughout the rooms of your home.
The first step in determining the type of windows that you’ll need for the various rooms in your house is to figure out exactly what you want to get out of your windows. Are you looking for more light? Do you want windows that will open sufficiently to allow a nice cool breeze to enter the home? Do you need to reduce drafts? Perhaps your windows are simply very unattractive and not doing justice to your home’s look both inside and out.
When it comes to choosing the windows you have a wide range to choose from including the following:
Double-hung windows – These windows have two sashes and they can be opened from either the bottom or the top to slide either up or down.
Picture windows – These are large windows that are stationary and are commonly used in homes where a lot of light is desired or the homeowners want to have access to a large view of the outdoors.
Slider windows – These windows open from either the left or the right and slide along a track to open and shut.
Bay or bow windows – These are protruding windows that open up the room and provide more space inside. They are often flanked by casement windows or double hung windows at the side to allow a flow of air.
Stationary windows – Stationary windows can’t be opened and may be the best choice for a space where a view is desired but no open air is required.
Transom window – A transom window is a narrow, usually stationary window that is installed above a window or a door.
Awning windows – These windows have a top hinge and open outward so that air can enter at the bottom, the right or at the left.
Casement Windows – These windows use a crank mechanism to be opened and the hinges can appear either on the right or the left-hand side.
