Black or Bronze Windows
Comments (16)Don't look at the bronze alone, or the black alone to make your decision. All the elements; the brick, the shade of white, the windows, the front door color, the roof, these need to work together to create an interesting and harmonious composition. Don't assume you will be able to get a roof color that will 'have more bronze to it.' Each decision you make, each element you select will need to work together. I happen to like black windows. I have always liked black windows, this is probably the result of having a grandfather who was a blacksmith and growing up in homes with iron windows he made....See MoreBlack windows and Bronze metal roof?
Comments (11)Thanks all, the exterior rendering is here: https://www.houzz.com/hznb/photos/exterior-plan-phvw-vp~160335724 A few notes: - Windows are Marvin Essential (fiberglass). So the only real choice is Black and Bronze (https://www.marvin.com/products/design-options/exterior-finish). [ just exterior; interior will be white ] - Siding will be smooth fiber cement. Let's assume the color is Distant Grey OC-68. - Someone mentioned Charcoal Grey for the roof. It's actually something we are leaning toward as well. So three choices: black, dark bronze, charcoal grey. - One more detail is there is a bellyband around the roof line and two columns at the entry that should be painted with a matching color with the windows too. So what do you all think?...See MoreBronze or Black Windows?

Comments (2)Tough to say with just snippets of what you are using as one cannot tell cohesiveness. What does the house look like? Can you get someone to do a rendering? Are you locked in on Windsor Windows?...See Moremillworkman
