White is such a neutral colour that it can be used anywhere without looking out of place or going out of style. The same could be said of double-hung windows – from farmhouses to California bungalows, the double-hung window enhances the aesthetics of its surroundings, adding personality to an otherwise bland space. By carefully fitting other elements of design along with your white double-hung windows, you’d be amazed at how well all the details will blend in together.
If you are wondering how you can style your white double-hung windows to enhance your home aesthetics, here are five ways to do so:
- Go with the “9-lite”
The “9-lite” pattern, also known as the colonial grid, is by far the most common design for double-hung windows. It can turn any wall into the star of its surroundings, yet still offer the functionality it was built for – getting cool, fresh air into your home.
- Mix and match patterns
You don’t have to stick to one design when it comes to double-hung window design. In fact, single-hung windows are just as clever at delivering a beautiful grid-pattern throughout your home while being able to be attached in hard-to-reach areas such as above tall windows.
- Ditch the grid & embrace the clean
If you don’t like the look of the colonial grid or a transom rail, don’t fret! A plain pane sashless double-hung window looks amazing. With its sleek and unobtrusive design, it will give your home a modern look and little “wow” – when installed closely together sashless double-hung windows to create the illusion of a window wall.
- Complement with white
If you’re finishing your double-hung windows in traditional white, a light-coloured wall will help the window blend with its surroundings, so bringing the outside view in. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenery beyond the window as you unwind in the peaceful aura your interior décor radiates.
- Explore your creativity
There really aren’t any rules when it comes to design. You can mix and match any colour, pattern, and design as long as it looks good to you. On the other hand, if you want to stick to traditions, contrasting colours such as white over black is something you might consider. If you want to give your home something a little more classic, then a double-hung window will do just that.
