Make Your Windows and Doors Part of Your Home Décor
Your home décor is made up of many different elements. From the furniture to appliances to accent pieces, every item plays a part in making your home what it is, including the windows and doors. When you think of your windows and doors as accessories, you can transform them from basic functional elements into stylish features that help define the character of your home.
Let the Light in with a Bay Window
A bay window is an elegant addition that brings maximum light into the home. The angled panes give an enhanced panoramic view of the natural surroundings and can also provide extra seating or storage space. If you have single hung windows on either end of the bay window, you can open them to get fresh air. Incorporating a bay window that’s in line with built-in shelves adds a smooth, continuous flow to the room.
Nature's on Full Display with a Picture Window
When you want nature to be the focal point, welcome the beauty of natural light and unobstructed views with an elegant, unadorned picture window. These windows don’t open and give you an unobstructed view of the great outdoors. Their airtight seal helps you save on energy, too.
Creative Control with Interior Shutters
Dress your windows up with interior shutters. They’re not just nice to look at. Interior shutters add beauty to any room, they’re easy to maintain and they give you better light control than curtains. Shutters also give you control over the internal temperature, allowing you to adjust the amount of sun and heat passing through the windows in the summer and preventing heat from escaping in winter. With unmatched style and function, they offer you the best of both worlds.
Doing Double Duty
A pair of windows on one wall has the power to break up the lines of a room and amp up the wow factor. Above, flanking 10-lite windows create an impressive accent wall while bathing the room in natural light.
Complementary Style with French Doors
Classic French doors framed by matching windows create a complementary style in this garden entryway. The coordinated, polished look flows between indoors and outdoors and the symmetrical placement brings balance and harmony to the space. It’s a design that works effortlessly and beautifully.
Where Modern Design Meets Rustic Charm
The barn doors that everyone loves with an updated, contemporary look. This eight-lite barn door uses frosted glass to add privacy while still letting light in. The beauty here is that any door could have been used to close off the bedroom. Instead of going basic, a black frame barn door plays off other black accent pieces to create a modern, interesting focal point in both rooms while playing off the hint of rustic charm in the living room.
Clean and Simple Lines of Shaker Style
Traditional and Modern: That sums up the versatility of this timeless five-panel shaker door. The simple design featuring crisp, minimalist lines blends in with this monotone, contemporary décor. The timeless design of shaker doors makes them the perfect complement to transitional, minimalist, farmhouse and traditional styles as well.
Designed to Glide, Styled to Impress with Sliding Closet Doors
Effortless style meets the ultimate smooth operator. When you have high-quality doors, it shows in every minute detail right down to the rollers for a quiet, seamless glide. Modern and elegant 5-panel sliding frosted glass closet doors hide the visual clutter that accumulates in your closet and gives your clothes the privacy they never knew they needed.
A Doorway to Unexpected Style
Once you’ve put that unused space under the stairs to good use, make sure it’s seen. This solid core 15-lite door is more than just a pretty face. The noise-blocking, 15-pane French beauty is built to last. It also offers excellent insulation which can help to regulate temperatures between rooms. Stain or paint the door or leave it as is to blend in with its surroundings.
First Impressions Are Lasting
Welcome visitors to your home with classic warmth and charm. This beautiful 4-lite single door made of knotty alder wood has a rustic, farmhouse vibe. Size, texture and placement of the knots will vary, making each door uniquely beautiful. It’s a durable door, one that will stand up to years of wear and tear.
Enhancing Your Windows and Doors
There are many ways to dress up your existing windows, or you can choose to replace them. Whatever you do, the right window treatments, drapes, blinds or shades can communicate your style and create the character and atmosphere of a room you desire.
There’s an endless array of door styles to choose from, so make sure you select the right one to suit your style and home décor.
Whether it’s interior doors or exterior doors, the door hardware also makes a statement. For interior doors, consider the overall theme and how you want that to carry from room to room. When looking for an entry door, keep in mind that the door’s materials, design and hardware all combine to enhance curb appeal. Exterior doors aren’t limited to entry doors. Think of the style and design elements when selecting patio doors and storm doors as well.
