Either will look good, it really just a personal preference. Do you want to match the neighbouring houses or do you not mind? Are there any planning restrictions that limit your choice?
Here is a red brick cottage where we replaced old timber windows with modern aluminium frames. They opted to have a clear glass face to the windows for maximum light into the home.
Highland Road · More InfoOn this house they chose to opt for glazing bars within the windows as the home owners preferred the traditional appearance and wanted their home to continue that design.
Swakleys · More InfoYou can see that both options can look great but it will depend what finish you would prefer.
You can view some more images of windows with and without glazing bars at our website: www.hedgehogaluminium.com
We also have a large glazing showroom at the Sky House Design Centre in Amersham. Let me know if you would like to arrange an appointment to visit and you can see these examples in person.

Need help with choosing which type/style of windows
Comments (0)Hi, We have a 1930s red brick house in the South East of England and the current uPVC (with lead bars in them) windows need replacing. We have decided to go again for uPVC but in white woodgrain. However, my choice would be for plain glass (without any lines of lead or with bars) in as few panels as possible to let as much light in as possible and also not to overcrowd the windows considering that we will have horizontal blinds inside. My husband thinks we should keep the led lines or add Georgian white bars inside. I need help as I don't want the new windows to destroy the look so I want to get it right... Thanks!

Comments (4)I think it's safe to say that the crux of the matter is the 80's extension roof. If you're going to the trouble of a new extension then the roof needs to go and then both bits tied in properly. The doorway through to the back garden is too close to the Front door, and the roof is larger than that of the front door. They at the very least need to be identical sizes, or preferably under one roof the same pitch and proportions as that of the garage. The porch needs to be grander and centralised. I'm no expert plan drawer by any means, but i did a mock up of what i had in mind, the rest would be down to the architect and budget....See MoreGeorgian office has become uninspiring dumping ground
Comments (22)Hi Karis, It would be good to see a plan of the room as the photos can distort perspective a little. I agree with you, the room does look a little off kilter. It's too heavy to the right of the fireplace -to balance it out you need something to the left (of the fireplace).- reflecting the height and width of the bookcase. One way you could achieve this is by using paintings or some kind of wall art above and slightly behind a chair. (small relaxing arm/reading chair would be ideal. A floor light in this corner even, if its only a plug in floor spot light will make a difference. Option A will also feel a little more balanced, but also a very tiny bit like the reception of some private practice. If the desk isn't too big, can you try turning the desk slightly diagonally into the room? Alternatively, position the desk where you had it originally and create a picture wall full of all the photos you love behind it (on the door wall). You will also need either a desk light either positioned on the desk or on the wall to give you the lighting you need, making your desk a pleasant place to work at. Hope this helps, please keep us posted. Annika...See MoreNeeding help designing a dining room wall - plain white, no windows
Comments (6)I'd go for a lovely big artwork. If it were me I’d go for something quite colourful, geometric and simple to enhance your minimal and monochrome kitchen design. Not a gallery wall as I think that would be too busy....See More
