By GOBO shares 5 tips for selecting the right window style to install in your home. 

If you are building a new house or renovating, you will inevitably come to a point when you will have to select what type of window is best for your home. You may be overwhelmed with choices, and even a bit concerned about not making the right decision. To help you out, keep reading for 5 tips on selecting the best window style for your home.

Compliment the façade of your home 

For aesthetic purposes, it’s a good idea to match your window style to the architectural design of your home. Traditional homes may benefit from louvre windows, whereas more modern homes may benefit from sliding windows or awning windows. Perth homeowners can benefit from speaking to an expert when it comes to selecting the most aesthetically pleasing style.

Consider ventilation

Before installation, you should assess the airflow requirements for each room and choose a window style that will allow for proper ventilation. Installing awning windows in Perth is a great way to take advantage of seasonal wind patterns to optimise natural cooling. With summer temperatures averaging 32.3 degrees Celsius in summer, this window style can be a lifesaver! 

Account for privacy and views 

When deciding the style of window that is best for your home, you should consider the window’s location and the view it offers. You may opt for smaller windows, as well as frosted glass, for rooms such as the bathroom where added privacy is needed, or for rooms without a view. Large sliding windows are a great idea for rooms that face an appealing view, or for rooms where privacy isn’t as important.   

Consider security  

When selecting your windows, you should also take into account the security of your home. You should opt for strong materials, and consider also installing security screens to keep you and your family safe. Aluminium windows, such as the ones installed by By GOBO, are an incredibly reliable choice for home security.   

Stick to your budget

Setting a budget and sticking to is important when exploring your options for your window installations. A budget will help you to narrow down your options and prevent overspending. This will also help you more confidently select a window style that balances aesthetics, functionality and cost-effectiveness.
