They can make all the difference to how people perceive the exterior and experience the interior. If you choose a style of window to frame the latter, the effect can be unbelievable.
Choose the unusual
Many people criticise housing estates because of the lack of architectural variety. Often there will be a handful of different designs but they will repeat across the site. It can make the developments look quite boring. One thing that can really help to avoid this from happening on your project is to choose unusual feature windows. Why shouldn't you go for different shapes, unique lightwells, or dramatic glazing? Below we want to take a look at some inspiring ideas you may want to try to use statement windows to frame your interior.
Rectilinear windows
A great idea would be to try large windows with very clean, straight lines. The rectilinear design suits this perfectly, helping to create a large opening that can let in a massive amount of light. The right angles are also very neat and modern.
Round windows
Modern designs love to use geometric shapes to create unique lines, angles, and shapes. They can be incredibly endearing and even inspire different emotions. However, you can create a dramatic contrast here with round windows.
Tall lightwells
Many homes may struggle to get enough light into the ground floor. It can be a problem with residential architecture because of the amount of development and age of some of the homes. With the right design it can become a focal point of the whole home too, especially if you have glazing to allow the light to penetrate from the roof to the ground.
Arched windows
Sometimes a little change can make all the difference with a design. Standard tall rectangular windows can look a bit boring. However, if they have arches at the top it can transform them and the interior. Arching windows can look and feel classier.
Tracking the sun
Placement can also be a great way to add style to a building and enhance the space. A great idea would be to place your windows across the property so they track the path of the sun. It can keep the interior looking and you won't be placing them in the same standard locations as other buildings.
