When the time comes to replace your windows, there is a lot to consider. One area that people tend to forget is how the windows they install will be trimmed. Both the interior and the exterior of your windows can be trimmed to add elegance and style.
In this article, we’re going to take a look at a few different styles of window trims that you can add to your windows to help make the decisions a little easier. Keep reading to learn more.
Your interior window trim works with the rest of the room to add style and character to your home. The style you choose will depend wholly on the style of interior design you have opted for within your home.
Below, there are a few different options for interior window trim to consider when you get your windows replaced.
Fluted interior window trims offer an elegant, mid-century addition to your room. The fluted trim adds both texture and colour to your window area and can be made modern or kept traditional. Fluted window trims can be left natural, in different wooden styles, or can be painted to complement the room around it.
Trimless windows are a contemporary approach to window trims and offer a cleaner and sleeker frame to your windows. This style of trim essentially integrates your windows into your wall for fluidity in your room design.
For a rustic approach to window trims, you could opt for wooden trims. These could be reclaimed wood or treated wood that matches the aesthetic of the room that it is in. Wooden trims can help to bring contrasting colours into the interior space and they add texture to the walls.
Whether you paint your window trims a garish green or stick with a classic black trim, a pop of colour around your windows can add a striking contrast to the room. Many designers use window trims to tie the whole room together with new and exciting colours.
The exterior of your home is just as important as the interiors and, as such, you should afford the same design considerations to your exterior window trims as your interior ones. We’ve hunted down some interesting and aesthetically pleasing exterior window trims for you to consider as you replace your windows.
Wooden window trims work on the outside as well as the inside. On the exterior of your home, wooden trims add a certain rustic charm to your house. Natural wood tends to be used for exterior frames and not only does it look fantastic, but it also lasts a lot longer than other trim materials if it is cared for correctly.
A stucco apron trim is when a window apron is added underneath the windowsill. It adds dimensions to your home and creates a slight ledge below the window. Though it is commonly made from stucco, a window apron can be made from many other materials too. So if you like this style but want to get creative with the material, then feel free to do so!
If you want to give your home that fairytale cottage feel, why not add some faux shutters? Shutters add a sense of consistency across the exterior of your home and can be painted in contrasting colours to ensure that they stand out from the rest of the exterior.
While these grids used to be functional, they now tend to be used for decorative purposes and they can add a whole other dimension to your windows. Black window grids are an incredibly modern touch to add to your home and can instantly boost your home’s curb appeal.
