Well Dressed Home No. 51 - The Awning


I love when function and beautiful enhancement of architecture meet. They fist pump and show off their collaboration!  Too often I think we consider the benefits of function but opt out because we think we have to sacrifice style. Let's take awnings for instance. And then let's say this myth is debunked.





Whether your taste leans towards the traditional awning stripe with a scalloped edge treatment or amazing copper awnings. This is only one of the steps to awning selection.





Architectural enhancements must be done with the utmost in restraint and keeping in mind that these are some of the most permanent additions we add to our home. Don't be shy about the enhancements, do be wise. 






The location of awning application on a home's exterior, along with the style of architecture plays an important part in the selection process.





Enough of that precautionary text! Have you checked out these awning images in this post? I swoon!







Don't you just love architecture?!?
