The new year marks an opportunity for change and renewal—not just for ourselves but for our living spaces as well. Replacing features on your home that affect how you experience your living space every day can bring a positive change into your life and help you to escape the monotony of the winter months.
It can also help you save money on your heating bill when you opt for an energy efficient option. If you decide to get a window replacement in the upcoming year, be sure to work with a company that offers a wide selection of new styles and can provide a professional installation service. In the meantime, here are a few of the most popular trends in windows to consider for 2022:
Floor to Ceiling
Many people building new homes or renovating old ones have accommodated windows that stretch the entire height of your wall from floor to ceiling or as close to that as possible. The practical consequence of this design is to maximize the amount of light that enters the home, which can help counter seasonal depression associated with winter; it also furnishes your home with an impressive façade.
Energy Efficiency
Every time you invest in new windows, you’ll be confronted with the choice of whether you want to choose an energy efficient option or not. The initial cost of windows designed to offer high performance when it comes to preventing heat from escaping the home is balanced with the long-term savings you’ll enjoy when it comes to your power bill.
While the desire to make choices that help reduce energy consumption is not new, it’s a trend that is only expected to grow in the coming years, given the widespread ambition to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change.
Dark Frames
Opting for black or dark frames for your windows creates a stunning contrast between dark and light that helps to catch the eye. If you’re into a modern décor for the interior of your home, this may be the right choice for you.
Skylights and Sun Tunnels
If you want to add light to your home with minimal renovation to the shape of your rooms, you add a window of just about any size, just about anywhere it will fit. A sun tunnel will allow you to bring extra light into your rooms, even if your house contains extra space between the roof and the ceiling of the desired room.
You may be considering such innovative installations purely for practical reasons, but you’ll gain the bonus of being trendy. Like most new home renovation trends in 2022, this design places less emphasis on showing off to your neighbours and more emphasis on
- Saving money
- Creating a Comfortable Living Environment
- Making Environmentally Friendly Choices.
No matter what stylistic trends motivate your choices when buying new windows, be sure to work with a company that can offer you the selection you need and the advice to help you find an option that will work best in your home.
