Does this grill pattern fit and make sense?

last modified: last year

I posted about colour before and love the feedback so I'm going with white. But am torn on grid pattern. Can I get opinions on these mockups?

(the front two are casements but I don't want casements on the entire main floor so I've mixed single hung for the sides of the house because I prefer how those work, the top floor windows are casements as well)

*** I know that making the windows the same on the entire main floor is nicer but I don't want casements there so I'm asking if the mix looks good or not? ***

Everyone will jump down my throat for telling you to repost, but I'd take down this post, then repost with the subject that includes retractable screens. Describe in your post what the challenge is - your price range, why you want the retractable, and what the limitations are with this company. I bet you will get a lot more advice that is specific to your screens and windows and may better help you figure this out.

Very cute house by the way and I can see why you want two over two grids in these windows!

I would prefer the same style window in the whole house.

Your windows should be consistent. Double hungs on the house seem appropriate.

I think your front canopy could use some help. More substantial uprights for your canopy would be a good first move.

All double hung windows with no grids.

Consider going double hung on the front and sides, and have grids in just the front, to mimic the cute front door. Ideally, I think the preference would be to use all the same style windows. Our first home was similar in style to yours, and we had double hung everywhere except over the kitchen sink, I had a casement window there where it made sense. My pet peeve in this house is the double hung windows, the top window is fixed and doesn't tilt in for easy cleaning.

This is a classic cape/ American small house. Why are casements being considered? These always have double hung sash windows. I prefer 6/1 if you have the budget for sdl. All four sides the same.

The reason for this mis match of window styles is because I would really love to have retractable screens and there is a company here that does them in my budget but the down side is they don't offer grids on the glass for the double or single hung, only for casements. Ideally I do prefer single hung with 2 over 2 but I just hate having screens so I'm torn but sounds like this option isn't really a good one.

@BeverlyFLADeziner thanks for the ideas, I'd love to update the front, it's still the original from when it was built. It's not top of list right now since we have a limited budget but it's definitely something I'd love to do and I love the images you shared.
