Top Window Trends for Summer

Posted on | by nwfam

Summertime in Colorado is a great time of year to start your summer home renovations and highlight some of the top trending window ideas! The most popular time of year for home renovations is April through September, especially because the weather is normally perfect for planning those upgrades and remodeling projects for your windows, entry doors, patio doors, and siding.

Here are some top window trends that you may want to consider for your home this summer:

Natural Light

Emphasizing natural light is a major trend for summer. Welcome natural light into your home with larger windows, including floor-to-ceiling windows or window walls, to maximize the amount of natural light that enters their spaces. This creates a bright and airy atmosphere and can help connect you with the outdoors by allowing lots of fresh air and light into your home.

Energy Efficiency

With the rising concern for energy conservation, energy-efficient windows are gaining popularity. Keeping cool and saving money are some of the main benefits of energy-efficient windows while at the same time also being environmentally friendly. New, energy-efficient windows are designed to minimize heat transfer, keeping the interior cool during summer while reducing the reliance on air conditioning. Double or triple glazing, low-emissivity coatings, and insulated frames are common features. Save on your energy bill with energy-efficient windows and get an amazing return on your investment.

Expansive Views & Better Sight Lines

Consider installing a picture window as they offer a clear, uninterrupted view of the outside, allowing you to enjoy views of the outdoors. They also allow abundant natural light to enter the room, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. Picture windows are large, fixed windows that do not open or close, and are designed to provide beautiful views of the outside while maximizing natural light. Casement windows are another style of window that also provides unobstructed views of the outside. They have no dividers and are hinged windows that swing open. Casement windows are attached to the window frame on one side and can open fully, allowing maximum ventilation.

New Windows for America offers many options in different types of materials, finishes, and colors such as the still very popular black window frames. We can help you match your homes style, while still staying within your budget.

Going Green

Because it is less than half petroleum, vinyl is the most energy-efficient plastic.

Window Treatments

Why not compliment your new summer windows with a beautiful and creative finishing touch? There are several types of window treatments that can offer practical benefits, as well as updating the style of your home. To enhance the use of your windows, try adjusting treatments to let light in during the morning while keeping the heat out during the hot summer afternoons.

Consider summer window treatments such as shades, blinds, sheers drapes, or plantation shutters. There are so many types of window treatments to fit any budget or style.

Trending Window Styles & Designs for 2022

Posted on | by nwfam

Magazines, influencers, social media posts, and insights from homestyle professionals all point to what is trending for design ideas for our homes. Deciding on the best window style can sometimes be confusing.

Here are some of the current window design trends and ideas to give your house an updated change:

Black Exterior Trim

Using rich colors on window frames has become increasingly popular, adding drama to your home’s exterior, and elevating curb appeal. Black and colored exterior trim is commonly used to reflect individuality and a distinct personality for one’s home.  Choosing a colored trim can offer a bold contrast giving your home a unique look and feel.

Vinyl window frames require much less frequent maintenance than painted wood windows and are used widely by many of today’s top remodeling designers. Noting also that black windows can often add up to 15% more value than regular white windows.

New Windows for America proudly offers VinylMax windows in a number of different series such as Edison, Inspire, Trend, and Prestige that offer colored laminated exteriors. Please contact us to learn more about these trending window styles.

Flexible Living

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have quickly become a way to expand the living space for flexible use, adding on to one’s home, above a garage, or a stand-alone building on your property. To create consistency and uniformity in your home, it is important to coordinate the style, shape, size, and color with your main property.

The Team at New Windows for America can offer helpful design options to work within your budget.

Privacy or Translucent Glass

Privacy or translucent glass obscures the view from both sides allowing the light to still peek through. Depending on your home, some of your windows may lack privacy while at the same time owners still want the flexibility of having natural light. Privacy glass can be an option for those homeowners who may want to create private spaces within their homes. Some options for privacy glass can come in frosted, tinted, textured, patterned, and opaque glass.

Custom Shaped Windows

No two rooms are exactly the same! Give your house some unexpected character by adding an arched, or circular window.  The look and function of the windows in your home can be designed to fit your design vision.

Bringing the Outside, In!

Choosing floor-to-ceiling windows is an amazing option for optimizing daylight and enjoying sweeping views from the comfort of your home. It is important for people to interact with or be close to nature, plants, and animals. Having large windows can make people feel more connected to nature and the environment, in the privacy of their own homes.
