Complement Current Design Trends With Steel Windows and Screens

June 5th, 2024

In this blog, we discuss how steel windows, steel doors and screens can be used to complement, or strategically contrast, interior design and bring a room to life.

Mixed metals

Big name designers, like ex-Dragons Den judge, Kelly Hoppen and American designer, Thom Filicia, have mixed warm and cool metals in a deliberate layered effect to create risky but stylish interior finishes, coinciding with a boost in popularity for steel framed glass products.  Owners of city pads, like this London home in Clapham, have used a blend of metals and glasswork to incorporate contemporary products into their homes, with an industrial aesthetic that reflects the urban setting outside.

Designer favourite colours

Colour trends come and go, but some designers have opted for classic palettes and timeless colour splashes.  Some have used dashes of Mediterranean blue and 60s-inspired olive and orange as feature colours, while others have cited midnight blue and grey as staple winter colours.  As ever, light pastels have also been the rage: light aqua blue, pinks and purples.

Clement Windows’ products are available in a variety of colours and finishes to suit different exteriors and interiors.  Like our steel framed window ranges, which are suited to different property requirements, we tailor each window finish to complement a property.

Lateral living

More of us are living in lateral flats, especially in dense cities.  Demand for dividers and screens has increased as more of us find new and interesting ways to break up a sidelong space.  Clement Windows has noticed a rise in UK demand for steel framed glass products in the residential and commercial markets to ease lateral life.

Tiny tremendous

Certain interior design trends emerge as answers to modern living issues.  As land values in the UK rise, so do property prices, and Britons have found creative ways to live within increasingly tight spaces around the country.  If you have a small home, there are a few staple rules that give the illusion of space, for example, installing large windows and painting your interiors light, airy colours that beautifully bounce natural light around a room.  Why not go one step further by introducing slim, interior glass screens and doors rather than chunky brick and wood to add square metres of interior space?

Collaborative commercial space

Room dividers shouldn’t be restricted to residential homes.  According to Inc.com, business giants such as Google and Dropbox encourage more open office designs that prompt team collaboration and a flow of fresh ideas between departments.  The team at this Central London office recognised that one of the best ways to boost communications in the workplace was to opt for strong but sleek steel framed glass doors, rather than solid brick.  They did so with the use of Clement steel sections in Anthracite Grey.
