The best developers and home designers know that you need to use colors on the opposite end of the color spectrum to create contrast, and that doesn’t always mean black and white. By using simple white-against-white window and trim combinations alongside a blend of warmer hues, they created an inviting home exterior with timeless curb appeal. Aside from the beautiful stonework and tapered columns, there’s nothing loud or boisterous about this aesthetic. The owner of this Craftsman-style home achieved the right balance of traditional style and modern sensibilities. This home is adorned by custom fabricated PVC accents that utilize parallel, vertical lines and brackets to create a stunning Craftsman-style home exterior. This bolder design creates adequate balance against the numerous tapered columns that wrap the span of the porch. The window trim pictured on this home is a bit wider and more straightforward than many of the prior examples. The white bracket used in the front porch gable adds singular focus and works in unison with the wrapped, tapered columns. There are no gimmicks or tricks, but the hard lines above the windows create distinct angles that add a touch of sophistication. Here at PVC Millwork, we love a unique use of stark lines and simple design accents, which is precisely what you get with this window trim design. This adds a subtle level of sophisticated dimension to the front porch, making an inviting backdrop for relaxing on a warm spring day. The portrait-style window trim offers a neatly framed look, where the sides are minimal and the top and bottom flair out. You can tell that the designer of this Craftsman-style home values elegance over flash. This is an ideal example of geometry and architecture in harmony. Notice the more stylized, dual matching designs above the second-floor windows, aligned symmetrically with the dark-hued brackets set within the gables above. This home is the first example on this list of a window trim that wants to take up space. Sophisticated Window Trim and Subtle Brackets Plus, it’s impossible not to notice the stunning gable pediment situated above the front door, which completes the entire look. This mirrored effect pairs well in tandem with the subtly darker-hued cream board and batten siding. The trim applied to the first- and second-floor windows of this home creates a dual-framed visual effect that is quite pleasing to the eye. This allows the eye to be drawn up to where the homeowner clearly spent some time perfecting the shake and gable pediment design aesthetic. Rather, the white window trim is kept to a minimal reveal, blending right into the white-cladded walls. The designer of this home had no interest in pulling focus away from the minimalist black windows. Gable Pediments and Complementary Trim Design For a more subtle element of the overlook, white brackets were installed above at outer columns of the front porch gable. This design choice is also carried into the garage and door frame, lending brilliant contrast and focus to woodgrain doors. This Craftsman-style home incorporates a wider window trim style to create a simple yet elegant silhouette.
