What color for alu windows?

blog | 04.07.2023

Choosing the right color for your windows can make a big difference to the exterior appearance of your building. Alu windows are a popular choice due to their durability, strength and aesthetics. However, before making a decision, it is worth considering what color will best suit your home or building.

Architectural style

The first step in choosing an alu window color is to analyse the architectural style of the building and its surroundings. For modern buildings, a minimalist approach that focuses on neutral colours such as white, grey or black is often preferred. White aluminium windows are a popular choice as they match most façade colours and add elegance and purity to the building. Black alu windows, on the other hand, add character and modernity, especially if contrasted well with light-coloured walls.

If our house has a more traditional architectural style, we might consider muted colours such as brown, dark grey or green. These colours add warmth and naturalness and go perfectly with the wooden elements of the facade. Brown alu windows are particularly popular in residential buildings, where they create a cozy atmosphere and blend harmoniously with the natural surroundings.

Personal preferences

Another factor to consider when choosing the colour of aluminium windows is our personal preference. We can opt for bold colours that add character and individuality, such as blue, red or green. Such coloured aluminium windows are increasingly popular, especially in projects with bold and modern aesthetics.

It is also important to remember that the colour of the aluminium windows should be consistent with the other elements of the facade, such as the door, fence or roof. A harmonious colour match will create an aesthetically balanced appearance for the building.

The final choice of colour for aluminium windows depends on our preferences, the style of the building and the surroundings. It is also advisable to consult an architect or interior design specialist who has knowledge and experience in colour and material selection.

Choosing the right colour has an impact

It is important to remember that the colour of aluminium windows affects both the exterior and interior of a building. Light window colours let more light into rooms, creating the impression of more space, while darker colours can introduce a more intimate atmosphere.

Aluminium windows allow us to customise the character of any building, whether it is a private or public building. Thanks to modern technology, we can choose from a variety of aluminium window colours. The powder coating or anodising process allows any RAL colour to be used as the basic colour. In addition, it is also possible to create special effects with lacquers, such as subtle and distinctive textures or differentiated glosses. Even realistic-looking woodgrain coatings are available as an option.

In summary, the choice of aluminium window colour is an individual decision that should be well considered. It is worth taking into account the style of the building, the surroundings, aesthetic preferences and the impact of the colour on the interior. A good colour composition of alu windows will add character, elegance or modernity, while enhancing the beauty and functionality of the overall structure.
