Whether you’re adding or replacing exterior shutters on your home, picking the perfect shutter style can be difficult. You may already know of a few shutter styles out there, but did you know that certain shutter styles can accentuate the aesthetic of a home? Saddle up, as we dive into ways of going about finding the right shutter style for your home!
The Curb Appeal
Let’s face it, curb appeal is always a factor when you’re a homeowner. What’s a simple way to boost your home’s curb appeal you may ask? Two words; exterior shutters. They’re simple to install, tons of fun customizing, and a great way to tie together your home’s entire look. From farmhouse-style shutters to the more classic and even cottage-inspired styles, finding the perfect custom shutters will certainly not disappoint in the end.
Your Home’s Style
What vibe does your home give off? Something classic or more modern? Whatever the case may be, exterior shutters can help nudge the look you’re going for in the right direction! With a variety of custom shutters out there, you can go with a consistent theme or go against the grain. Let’s say you have a modern farmhouse, in which case rustic shutters are your best bet. On the flip side, for a simple ranch-style home, you’ll want to pair it with panel or louver shutters. While these are just a couple of examples, there are so many options to choose from!
Shutter Styles
Let’s cut to the chase, shall we? Panel, louver, board & batten, and combination shutters are the most popular shutter styles, and rightfully so! Each shutter style carries its own unique set of attributes which pair with a wide variety of architectural styles. If you happen to own a colonial, cottage, or ranch-style home, panel and louver shutters are a no-brainer. On the flip slide, you can never go wrong with board & batten shutters on cape cod or french country-style homes.
Choosing Your Style
Soak up everything mentioned above and find a shutter style you not only love but what speaks the most about your individualistic style. Narrow down your favorite style, which color looks best with your home’s exterior, and maybe even add some shutter hardware to jazz it up a bit!
