Spring is just around the corner, and now is the perfect time to prepare your home for the new season. At Premier Windows, we are double glazing experts, and in this article, we share our expert advice on how to make your home brighter this spring.
How To Make Your Home Look Brighter In Spring
While the worst of winter may be over, and we are enjoying a little more sunlight each day, indoor spaces can continue to feel dark and cramped as spring approaches. Finding ways to add more light to your home can make your rooms feel larger, create a more welcoming atmosphere and even boost your mood. Here are 5 easy ways to bring more light to your home and make the most of those precious extra minutes of sunlight each day…
1. Install New Windows
The best way to brighten up your home is to invest in stunning new windows. At Premier Windows, we bring Dorset homeowners a wide range of premium quality window designs. We install casement windows, sash windows and many other styles, all of which can be customised to suit your chosen aesthetic. Welcoming more natural light into your property is easy with a double glazing installation.
Large energy efficient glass panes welcome maximum levels of light into your home without jeopardising property security or thermal performance. In fact, the windows we offer here at Premier will boost your property’s energy efficiency, while also providing reliable protection from poor weather conditions and potential intruders.
New windows may not be necessary for your home right now, but what about a glazed roof installation? Upgrading your home with a roof lantern installation will instantly brighten up your space.
2. Clean Your Windows
If a window upgrade isn’t an option for you right now, you will be surprised by how much difference cleaning your existing windows can make. Glass can easily become dirty, and a build-up of dust and debris can impact how much natural light is able to filter into your home. With spring clean season almost here, try not to neglect your windows while you are busy scrubbing the rest of your house. Either hire a professional to do the job or get a squeegee and some water and get to work! For the best results, clean both sides of the glass and use a good technique to avoid streaks.
3. Bring White Into Dark Rooms
Do you have dark wood flooring, warm colour walls or furniture in deep tones? If so, there are many steps you can take to brighten up your space without needing to replace your furniture and redecorate. Rooms with a dark colour palette can benefit from soft textiles in brighter shades. For example, an effective spring upgrade could be to add a fluffy white throw to a dark leather sofa. Alternatively, a white or cream rug can add a bright burst to dark floors, and even a scattering of cream cushions can make a huge difference.
4. Welcome Nature Inside
Freshen up your home this spring by adding beautiful houseplants to your rooms. Adorning your shelves, side tables, and surfaces with house plants is a fun way to bring the essence of spring into your home. If taking care of houseplants feels like too much hard work, try high quality fake plants instead. Alternatively, decorate your space with floral patterned cushions or nature inspired artwork.
If you are interested in a larger home improvement project this spring, a glazed extension is the perfect way to blend interior and exterior spaces. Here at Premier Windows, we install double glazed conservatories, orangeries, and garden rooms designed to provide maximum levels of natural light all year round.
5. Take Down Curtains
Want to brighten up your home quickly? Remove your curtains! Don’t worry, you don’t need to compromise your privacy for sunlight, it is possible to enjoy both. Take down curtains made from heavy and dark materials and install blinds instead. If blinds or bare windows don’t match your interior style, opt for lightweight and sheer material curtains instead. These curtains have a less heavy appearance and will give your rooms a fresher vibe. If patterned curtains are a must, stick with the nature theme or choose bright colours inspired by the spring season.
