π‘ What windows should you choose for a modern barn-style home?
Large glazed areas, clean lines and dark frames emphasise the modern character of the building while creating a striking contrast with natural timber cladding.
The best windows for a modern barn-style home: π
π€ Dark colours β anthracite, graphite or black.
πΏ Large glazed areas β let more natural light into the interior and open the home up to the garden.
βοΈ Good thermal insulation β especially important when using large areas of glass.
π A consistent look throughout the joinery β windows, patio doors and roller shutters should be planned as one cohesive element of the design.
β¨ Simple, slim profiles β perfectly suited to the distinctive, minimalist architecture of a modern barn.
In the photo, the combination of graphite frames, large glazed areas and timber cladding creates exactly this effect β modern, yet warm and timeless.
