Most people associate black window frames with modern-style homes. However, they are far more versatile and it would be a missed opportunity if you didn’t at least consider them for your window replacement project. In today’s post, Renewal by Andersen® of Denver takes a look at what black window frames can do for your home.
1. They can hide imperfections. If you have pets and small children in your household, you may already have scratched trim, baseboards and window frames all around the house. You’ve probably spent some time trying to retouch these scratches or have hired someone to fix them. While black window frames are not scratch-proof, they’re certainly better at hiding marks, which can help take a load off your daily tasks.
2. They create an energetic look. Black window frames add a bold and energetic feel to a space, much like hanging a stark black and white artwork on a white wall — they punctuate an exterior with an otherwise plain look. In homes with high ceilings, black window frames create a line that the eyes will follow, drawing the viewer’s attention toward the ceiling.
3. They frame a view. Ever wondered why televisions and most mobile devices have black frames or bezels? It’s because black frames draw the eyes to the center. Windows with black frames have the same effect, which makes them perfect for when you want to frame a beautiful view outside your home. Black frames are particularly effective when the interior color palette is similar to the view outside, as they clearly define the borders between interior and exterior spaces.
4. They look timeless. Some colors are associated with certain time periods or architectural styles. Black is not among them. Being a neutral color, black blends in with virtually any color palette and home style without giving your home a dated look.
