Like shade sails, choosing your awnings at Hunter Canvas can be a bit confusing with so many options available on the market today. Awnings are perfect for enhancing your home’s curb appeal.

By doing some research, you should be able to choose an ideal one to add to your exterior. Of course, seeking the assistance of a Hunter Canvas representative can greatly speed up the selection process.

Here are two important questions to consider when shopping for awnings:

• Do you prefer awnings that will add a pop of colour or blend with your current exterior?
• Where do you plan to install your awnings, at the pool or patio area or front of your home?

The answers to these two questions will provide you with a good reference point for your decision-making process.

Fabric Awnings

When choosing fabric design, consider the existing colours and patterns of your home interior, especially the foyer. You will want to provide your guests with a visual continuity as they enter your property.

Style

When choosing awning fabrics, consider the architectural style of your house. If you are working with a traditional design, go for conventional picks like neutral colours, forest green or navy blue. For cottage style and colonial homes, stripes can present a great complementary colour. For Southwestern style and stucco sided properties, salmon, beige and terracotta solids are highly recommended.

If you have a contemporary home, you may want to choose bright, bolder colours that provide a pleasant contrast.

Pattern

Aside from colour, you also need to pick patterns. In such case, choose one that is proportional to your awning and structure. If you have a large awning, choosing a fabric awnings Gold Coast with small stripe designs may make it appear too busy. In the same way, choosing large striped fabrics may look overwhelming for smaller structures.

Binding

Aside from fabric, you need to make sure that your choice of binding will go well with the awning and exterior design. Consider the existing colour of your primary paint, shingles and trim colour. If you have a nearby garden, you may want to choose colours that match it.

Without a doubt, choosing awnings Gold Coast can easily become a complicated task. Make sure to seek the assistance of a sales representative at Hunter Canvas to help you explore your options and provide expert advice.
