Advice On Infusing Traditional Character Into New Build Homes
Avoidance of a property chain is a serial motivator for buying new builds, but we mustn’t assume those who do are necessarily after a futuristic, perfectly-groomed abode.
Some desire a new build residence with distinct touches of traditionalism, the question is, how do you accomplish this and imbue one with vintage charm?
Recruit the expertise of Visual, that’s how, so that your new build is poles apart from others on your estate.
Wield the exquisiteness of heritage windows
Traditional dwellings get characterised by several elements, one of them being their windows, which customarily are intricate and timeless. Emulate this aesthetic at a new build using heritage cottage windows.
Cottage windows simulate the look of classic windows from a bygone era, intermingled with current thermal insulating standards and present-day functionality provision. Alert a Visual designer to any customisation priorities, such as the incorporation of glazing bars or divided panes to follow tradition.
Entrust cottage window designs to elevate your home’s exterior and immerse the interior with the natural rays of the sun, ushering a positively uplifting ambience.
Nominate an ageless finish
Traditional charm will also be underscored by the coloured finish employed on your window and door frames. Conventionally, modern properties exhibit minimalist finishes, ergo high usage of white, cream, and black, but it’s a traditional hue you want to implant a heritage-like elegance.
Chartwell Green conforms to this and could be considered for your windows and doors. It is the gentlest and most soothing of green shades, conjuring thoughts of countryside grounds and esteemed manors.
A popular selection for front doors, with an accompanying white trim, Chartwell Green prompts timelessness and will markedly edge your property ahead of others for kerb appeal.
Add some vintage touches
These can encompass things like antique light fixtures, ornate door fixings, reclaimed wood beams, rustic flooring etc., to infuse personality and a traditional feel within a new build.
Look to install a statement furniture piece that’s charmingly distressed too or decorate walls with classic artwork, patterned wallpaper, and framed botanical prints. Companion this with the natural materials of wood and stone to adhere to the historic theme.
Deployment of vintage subtleties has the potential to convert an impersonal space into somewhere that seems well lived-in.
Far beyond just uplifting aesthetic appeal, instilling a sense of the traditional with the harnessing of cottage windows and our other aforementioned suggestions will invariably ring in a nostalgic and comforting home spirit.
