Picturesque and serene outdoors, views of rolling hills, lush green spaces and vibrant sunsets are a homeowner’s delight. Capturing these vistas with a window might seem difficult, but with these tips from Renewal by Andersen® of Sacramento, you can enhance not only your home’s ambiance but also its overall value.
Strategic Placement Is Key
Want breathtaking views? The strategic placement of windows is crucial. Consider the orientation of your house and the landscapes you wish to capture. For instance, north-facing windows can bring in the softer, diffused light while showcasing the picturesque northern landscapes. South-facing windows, on the other hand, can flood your space with warm sunlight and vibrant views, perfect for homes looking out over rivers or lush local parks.
Embrace Large Window Designs
Maximizing your view often means maximizing the glass area of your windows. Picture windows are a perfect choice for framing a specific, unobstructed outdoor scene. Meanwhile, bay and bow windows not only add a touch of elegance to your home’s exterior but also provide panoramic views of the local landscapes. These windows create additional space inside your room, perfect for a cozy viewing nook.
Specialty Windows for Unique Views
Every home is unique, and sometimes capturing that perfect view requires thinking outside the traditional window box. Specialty windows come in various shapes, including arches, circles and unusual geometrics, offering a creative solution to enhance your home’s character while bringing in the desired framed outdoor views. These windows can serve as an architectural focal point, drawing the eye and framing your view in an unexpected, yet visually appealing manner.
Opt for High-Performance Glass
To truly capture the outdoor views, the clarity and quality of the window glass are paramount. Renewal by Andersen’s High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass is designed to provide not only exceptional energy efficiency but also reduce water spots and allow for easier cleaning. This means you can enjoy clear, unobstructed views of landscapes year-round without worrying about the glass fogging up or accumulating dirt that could impair your view.
Consider Your Window Treatments
Finally, the way you dress your windows can significantly impact how well you capture the outdoor views. Opt for window treatments that complement your desire to bring the outdoors in. Sheer curtains or retractable blinds allow for privacy without sacrificing your view. Alternatively, installing window treatments that can be easily pulled back or up ensures you can fully enjoy your views whenever you want, without obstructions.
