During the dark, bleak winter months, we long for warmer days filled with light, bright sunny skies. So it’s no surprise that during the summer season, we want to make the most of each ray of sunshine, as we prepare for autumn to roll around once more.
From stretching out in the garden, taking a walk across the countryside, or simply enjoying a nice cold drink in your local pub garden, as a nation, we certainly know how to enjoy our outdoor spaces during the summer.
But when it comes to inside our homes, maximising the light across our indoor spaces can be a bit more of a challenge. From dull, heavy-duty furniture to dark interior colour schemes, there can be plenty of reasons why our homes feel gloomy, even during the brighter summer months.
Which is why the experts at Eurocell Home are here to help, sharing their top tips and advice on how to inject natural light into your property, making your home feel bright and airy, whatever the season.
Firstly, it’s important to note that your furniture, décor and overall colour scheme will have a huge impact on how light the rooms across your home look. Many interior design experts will utilise darker colours as a stylistic feature, but this must be done carefully so as not to overwhelm and make the space feel cramped.
By opting for a lighter, monochromatic colour palette, these soft, neutral hues will naturally reflect the light entering your home, therefore creating the effect of a larger living space.
And you can certainly maximise the natural light entering your property by opting for carefully selected windows and doors.
And a modern, stylish way of encouraging natural light into your home is with the addition of beautiful bi-fold doors.
Creating a seamless connection between your indoor and outdoor spaces, bi-fold doors have been designed to open up the inside of your home to your garden, freeing up additional living space and allowing light to flood into your property.
With floor to ceiling glass panels, bi-fold doors uniquely create a glass wall that allows for this natural light to enter your home, helping to make a space feel warm and welcoming, perfect for entertaining during the summer months.
At Eurocell Home, our StudioGlide collection has been designed to stand the test of time, in both style and durability, making this modern feature a key investment to add a unique focal point to your property.
Whether it’s opening up your doors to eat a spot of breakfast on a bright, sunny morning, or enjoying a late-night lounge with a glass of wine in the evenings, bi-fold doors are the perfect luxurious lifestyle partner.
In a range of colour options and bespoke designs, bi-fold doors can really become an extension of your home, offering a contemporary, stylish solution to bring extra light into a property every season.
For homes where the modern look of bi-fold doors just don’t reflect the period of your property, French doors are a favourable option to still allow for endless amounts of daylight to flood your home throughout the summer months.
French doors are another perfect way of opening up your living space to naturally encourage light into and around your home. Offering a timeless, classic look, French doors remove ‘sight lines’ in your living space, ensuring nothing gets in the way of the sun rays.
Opening your French doors on a beautiful sunny afternoon, your home will benefit from additional living space, allowing homeowners to experience alfresco living, whether that’s entertaining with friends and family or just lounging alone on a summer evening.
And with the highest level of durability and security for your home, the range of lifestyle doors from Eurocell Home offer protection against intruders and the elements, whatever the season.
So, why not make the most of the summer weather or sunny spells any other month of the year, by investing in a set of lifestyle doors to effortlessly work with your home’s interior design scheme, and, of course, your life.
