Using Windows and Doors to Enhance the View and Create Interest

Windows and doors are not just functional they create interest, inviting the outside in or leading us in to another space within the home.

So how can windows and doors, provide a facelift to your home:

• Make the home look bigger: Mirrors are not the only feature that makes an interior space appear bigger. Interestingly, windows and doors also have that effect on both the interior as well as exterior of the home, enlarging living spaces, bringing the outside in.

 A perfect example of this fact, are bi-folding doors – creating large expanses of open space, effectively opening our walls up to the outside. This is in a home we recently completed in the Isle of Capri – ahead of you is the river – amazing view. Capral Artisan series bi-folding door.

• Brightens the home: Strategically placed windows and doors, especially certain styles and sizes are very effective in bringing in more natural light into the home throughout the day and night, as well.

• Adds elegance and distinction: A carefully chosen window or door will go to a far way in making any space, in which it is placed, more elegant and distinctive. 

Make a statement with your entrance – privacy – light and pizzazz.

• Increases the property’s curbside appeal: Enhanced curbside appeal does not only make a property more saleable but it also means that the property is setting a tone of a higher caliber in the neighbourhood.

Windows and doors have significantly moved away from being just about
functionality. Nowadays, they are both functional as well as statement pieces. They
are being made with more aesthetic value to be impressive wherever they are
placed.

Even though factors such as climate, location, accessibility, lifestyle aspect, and
materials will determine the type and quality of windows and doors chosen; these
factors do not have to impact aesthetics in a negative way.

There is a saying that goes, ‘first impressions last’; and there is much truth in that
statement. A front door is arguably the most noticeable feature of a home and is
what greets each person when they enter or exit. For this reason, the style that is
chosen for the front entrance should be decided on after much consideration, why
