Welcome to the Journey: Understanding the Landmark Windows Partner Program

Welcome back to Issue 34 of The Landmark Way!

In this edition, we bring you the latest colour trends and provide guidance on selecting the perfect hue to match both architectural styles and personal tastes.

Colour Trends - Breathe New Life into Your Sash Windows

Colour plays a significant role in creating a striking first impression through the exterior of your home. The right choice of colour for your sash windows can enhance your property's architectural features and elevate the overall appearance. Let's take a look at some of the current colour trends for sash windows:

Neutral Tones: Classic neutrals such as whites, greys, and creams continue to be a popular choice for sash windows. These versatile shades easily complement most architectural styles and create a timeless look.

Bold Accents: Homeowners are increasingly opting for bold and vibrant colours to make a statement with their sash windows. Deep blues, greens, and blacks as window accents add a visually striking element to the façade.

Soft Pastels: Pastel shades like pale blues, pinks, and greens have emerged as a refreshing alternative to neutrals. These understated colours create a subtle, calming ambiance and blend seamlessly with a variety of building materials.

Dual Colours: At Landmark we have the ability to facilitate our Sikkens 3 coat factory spray finish service in two tones, dual colour. This caters for the versatility of having a different shade of colour on the exterior to the interior. All done in house by our expert team, meaning you don't have to compromise by having the joinery hand painted to achieve a dual colour product.

Matching Your Windows to Architectural Styles

Selecting the perfect hue often depends on the architectural style of your home. Here are some popular styles and their corresponding colour recommendations:

Georgian Homes: Traditional whites, off-whites, or creams work beautifully with Georgian architecture, highlighting the classic, simple elegance of this style.

Victorian Homes: Victorian properties can benefit from bolder, darker colours such as deep blues, greens, and blacks for sash windows. These accent shades can add a modern twist to these grand, ornate homes.

Modern Homes: Contemporary homes offer more flexibility, with the option to go either classic with neutrals or experiment with bold shades to create contrast with the building's modern lines.

Actionable Tip for Sash Window Installers

As you guide your clients through selecting the perfect sash window colours, it's essential to be aware of, and share with them, the current trends and considerations to suit different architectural styles. Creating a portfolio showcasing various colour options and building styles can help your clients visualise and feel confident in their decisions. This personalised approach can lead to higher customer satisfaction and an increase in word-of-mouth referrals.

In conclusion, the right palette for your sash windows can significantly influence the aesthetic appeal of your home. By staying informed on colour trends and understanding the importance of aligning window hues with architectural styles, homeowners and sash window installers can work together to create truly stunning results.
