This blog will cover interior design much more extensively, including design ideas, current interior trends and design news. Think of it as a huge addition to this web site, which will still be updated regularly with information on current trends.
When a new product is offered designer's minds immediately start turning over imagining how the material might be used, and what effect it will have on the feel of the home. Where do our design team draw their inspiration from?

When it comes to choosing windows and doors for your new home, what do you look for? Style? Price? Long-term durability or flexibility? Whatever your thinking, timber is a great option to consider.
Many people opt for cheaper materials for their windows and doors, however what they don’t realise is choosing timber actually saves you money in the long term. With natural thermal properties, the insulation timber provides to your home will not only keep you more comfortable but it will also save you money on your heating and cooling bills. Not to mention the fact that timber is a renewable resource that actually helps in the reduction of green house gases during its life.
Practicality aside, we can all see the superior aesthetic timber windows provide. Whether using stylish timber windows only on the front façade to impress the neighbours, or opting for a beautiful bifold door to enhance your living area, whatever the application, timber windows and doors add to the resale value of your home.
Some may choose aluminium for durability reasons, however many of the timbers used today offer great durability, along with the flexibility to allow for changing tastes should you choose to update your window colour at a later date.
Canterbury Windows & Doors have been designing and manufacturing quality timber windows and doors since 1944. We have a wide range of window and door styles to suit any home. For more information on Canterbury Windows & Doors products, visit our website www.canterburywindows.com.au
