Decorative perennial favourite for design windows: dark tones

Colours characterise rooms

To better understand why window profiles in dark tones are so popular, it is worth taking a look at colour psychology. This states that colors send more than just an optical signal. They also trigger associations and feelings in the viewer. The latter, of course, play an important role in relation to one's own four walls. After all, they should offer a retreat that reflects the style and character of its inhabitants. Warm metallic tones such as gold are suitable, for example, if you want to convey values such as fullness, elegance or value. Earthy brown tones, on the other hand, are more associated with security, stability and naturalness in our brains.

Subtly dark tones

Dark shades of grey and black have their very own visual effect. While grey expresses harmony, restraint and seriousness, the colour black symbolises strength, elegance and prosperity. Anthracite, black and all shades in between have in common that they are considered timeless and minimalist. Rooms that are designed in so-called non-colours such as white, grey and black automatically look tidy and coherent. Their contrast directs the eye in the room. Unlike gaudy tones, they place the visual focus on surfaces, fabrics and shapes with their reduction.

Definitely a harmonious duo: dark colours + GEALAN-KONTUR® design system

Modern windows also use this power of simplicity. The right choice of colours enhances their trendy, simple look. Contemporary design windows in dark tones look even more angular, while the subtle colour scheme emphasises their straightforwardness even more strikingly.
This clear design language is typical for windows from the GEALAN-KONTUR profile® system. With their narrow face widths and maximum glass content, they ensure attractive facades and provide plenty of daylight inside the building. The profiles from this system are not only refined by the special surface technology GEALAN-acrylcolor® , but are also designed to be dark through and through. This means that the high-quality PMMA surface merges seamlessly with a colour-harmonising dark base body. The result is a perfectly designed unit in a noble dark look.
