5 Striking Design Ideas for White Window Trim

When it comes to replacement windows, there are times when the smallest details are the trickiest to deal with. This includes picking the right color for the trim. It provides accent to your home’s design, which is why it needs to blend well with your walls and furnishings.

At Renewal by Andersen® of San Francisco, we suggest painting your trim white. Many homeowners opt for this hue because of its versatility. Let us show you ways to use it:

1. Combine With Wood

Wood elements surrounding your window will look better when you mix them with a white accent. Their intricate detailing will stand out, especially against the floor and decorative joists.

2.  Contrast

White trims can make your replacement windows pop if you have dark walls. For the best effect, consider using the same shade for your doors, shelves, and other objects. This creates a pleasing contrast in your interior.

3. Keep Them Cool

Keep in mind that not all white paints are created equal. If you have a crisp green or blue interior, find a white shade that registers cooler to the eyes. Put swatches of different white paints next to one another. Some shades will look beige-like while others will appear grayish with hints of blue, green, or purple.

4. Play With Neutrals

You can achieve a refreshing feel when you incorporate white trim into your minimalist design. Using them along with your neutral walls and cool ceilings help tie in the elements together while softening their appearance. In turn, your room looks more serene and spacious.

5. Match With Warm Colors

Choose a white with a touch of warmth for your trim if your interior color scheme mostly involves brown, red, orange or yellow. This will help tone down their glow, making your room more visually pleasing rather than jarring.
