3 Window and Door Trends for 2021

Windows and doors can be statement pieces, improving the scope and scale of your home’s aesthetic. Changing these items not only has the potential to increase the functionality of your home, but it can make for some beautiful design choices, as well. Here are three window and door trends we’re seeing in 2021!

1. Large-scale windows. Increasing the size of your windows can add natural light and improve ventilation in your home. Floor-to-ceiling windows have become very popular; the trend this year is toward taller, wider windows and broader expanses of glass. And with today’s energy efficient windows, there’s less concern about unexpected increases to your hydro bill.

2. Seamless access to outdoors. Connecting the indoors to the outdoors has been a trend for years now, but it has become even more valuable during the pandemic. Multi-slide and folding patio doors create large, beautiful spaces and are easy to open. Sliding patio and French doors can also make for a seamless transition to outdoor space. Bring the outdoors in!

3. Controlling noise. With the recent need to work from home, the demand to have a quieter environment has never been greater. Using laminated glass for windows provides a thicker pane and reduces sound. If noise control is a high priority for you, talk to your window provider about recent developments in window technology that can help create calm interior spaces.

Upgrading windows and doors can be a fun and exciting experience! Not only does it provide you the opportunity to give your home a facelift, but windows and doors can increase the value of your home.
