We all know what it's like to pick a colour for things we consider significant. That includes the paintwork of our car, house, and office space because the colours on these typically last a long time and they tend to reflect our preference.
Similarly, choosing the best colour for your fabric awning depends on numerous factors such as the architectural style of your home, the size of the building, and your preference. All these factors play a role in defining whether the selected colour is suitable.
While learning how to choose an awning colour may seem daunting at first, it will be a relatively simple process once you understand the steps to choosing the perfect awning colour for your home.
When you choose an awning colour, you will need to consider your house’s architectural style. Is it contemporary or cottage-style? If it’s the former, you’ll be glad to know that they go well with modern awnings crafted in bright colours.
Meanwhile, cottage-style homes are more suited with subdued colours such as black, navy blue, and white. This is because the architectural style can make a statement on its own, so you don’t want to overwhelm the style strength with bold or bright colours.
Your house’s fabric awning colour should not only match its architectural style, but also the size of the building. This is because it can affect the appearance of your fabric awning, thus making it an important consideration to ponder when choosing a colour.
If your house is a large cottage-style structure, you likely want the awning colour to appear as if it’s part of the structure because the simpler it is, the better it looks. Meanwhile, if your house is a small contemporary-style structure, adding bright colours can bedazzle passers-by (in a good way).
Aside from your house’s architectural style and its size, you can also choose the colour of your house fabric awning based on your preference. For instance, light colours like whites, yellows, and light blues are most resistant to fading, while bold colours such as red can fade quicker than you expect.
Cleaning is another factor you can consider because certain fabric awning colours can prevent unsightly stains and watermarks from standing out on the fabric. Dark colours such as black, navy, and dark grey work well in hiding stains on the awning.
The colour of your house fabric awning doesn't have to match the paintwork because it's usually not feasible to get an awning fabric that's the exact colour of your house. Instead of going through all that trouble, you should choose a suitable colour accent. Here are some of our suggestions:
Conventional colour accents are those that tend to complement each other, giving your house structure a balanced appearance. For instance, you can choose a dark brown fabric awning to accent your beige-coloured house or a navy blue awning to accent a powder blue house.
If you feel adventurous, you can opt for bold colour accents such as a deep red fabric awning against your white house or yellow for your house fabric awning against a beige-coloured house. Your colour selection can also work to match the environment instead of your house’s exterior. Try deep blue fabric awning over a pool deck.
In some cases, certain colour combinations just don’t work at all. Think orange against blue and red on green. These colours are usually found on the opposite spectrum, so they just don’t match. Hence, you should avoid these bad colour combinations when choosing a colour for your house fabric awning.
By considering the factors and colours combinations above, it’ll be easier for you to choose a fabric awning colour for your home. You can also consult a specialist like M & N France Fabric Awning for a flawless awning design in Malaysia.
