friend,

Everyone cares about the wrong stuff nowadays!

Doors,

Furniture,

Decor…

Small detailed compared to this one fundamental but too often overlooked aspect of the modern farmhouse style…

BIG WINDOWS.

Yes , there’s no point in having a perfect interior design if there’s no natural light coming in!

So since so many people make the HUGE mistake of having a lot of small windows,

I’m here to list 5 reasons why you need to install big windows at all costs:

1. Natural Light

Windows are essential for letting natural light into your home, which can significantly affect your mood and well-being. Sunlight can boost your energy levels, improve your mood, and even enhance the aesthetic appeal of your rooms by highlighting colors and textures.

2. Ventilation

Good ventilation is key to maintaining a healthy living environment, and windows offer a simple, natural way to allow fresh air to circulate throughout your home. This can reduce moisture buildup, prevent mold growth, and diminish indoor pollutants.

3. Energy Efficiency

Modern windows can dramatically improve the energy efficiency of your home by providing better insulation and reducing your reliance on artificial heating and cooling. This not only helps lower energy bills but also reduces your carbon footprint.

4. Views and Connection to the Outside

Windows can frame views and create a visual connection to the outdoor environment, whether it’s a cityscape, garden, or street. This connection can enhance your psychological well-being by providing visual breaks and a sense of space and openness.

5. Property Value and Aesthetics

Aesthetically pleasing windows enhance the curb appeal of your home, potentially increasing its market value. Additionally, the style, quality, and placement of windows can dramatically affect the architectural character and interior ambiance of your home, making them a key element in design considerations.

So friend,

Let’s start focusing on the things that actually make a difference first…

And worry about everything else later.

See you on Thursday,

Your favorite modern farmhouse designer,
