Where Light Meets Personality

Windows do more than just let in natural light. They can add personality to your home that can't be found with standard rectangular windows. This is exactly what Colonial Homes specializes in: creating a home that is uniquely yours from the start.

Architectural Interest

Unconventional window shapes can add architectural interest to your home. An arched window can add a softness to your roofline and draw the eye upwards, creating the illusion of height and openness. A round window creates a focal point and helps your home stand out. Arched styles feel traditional and warm, and work well above front doors, in great rooms, or in gables.

Round and oval windows can add charm to smaller areas such as the stairway, bathrooms, bonus rooms, and hallways. Even a 24 to 36 inch round window can turn a plain wall into a feature.

Details Make a Difference 

Transoms and specialty accent windows can add a custom look to your room. Half circle or elliptical windows above your doors or windows can add natural light while still maintaining privacy. They add depth and interest to flat walls.

Inside your home, curved windows can help break up straight lines from walls and cabinets. Outside, accent windows can add interest to your home’s style. Traditional homes look best with arches and ovals, while modern homes can use circles and other shapes. These can be more expensive, but they are the first thing you will notice when you look at your home.

If you want a home with character, focus on the details many builders skip. Talk with the design team at Colonial Homes about where a specialty accent window can add personality and help your home stand out.
