Black or white trim?
If it comes down to it, I’d choose black – but let’s be real, I’d take any of these windows in a heartbeat.

Boathouse. Photographer’s Studio. Call it what you want – this seriously sleek home featured in this month’s Canadian House & Home magazine is unbelievable. Designed by gh3 Architects, I find the space completely inspiring.
The windows are phenomenal. I love the oversized floor tiles – wonder what they are? Anyone know? The “bigframe” dining chairs work perfectly for this space. A tub overlooking the water. Sigh. Vola faucets. Double sigh.
It might not be super comfy, but I could curl up with those views any day.
I just had a few jaw dropping moments while visiting the site of photographer Giorgio Possenti. See what I mean?
I’ve never paid as much attention to the windows on houses I pass by as I have lately. I discretely (sort of) walk up to stranger’s homes and touch their frames to see if they’re wood or aluminum. I used to just notice a house and comment on aesthetics. Now I ask questions like “are those aluminum clad or anodized?”
In any event, I’ve discovered a new found love for steel / metal windows. They’re stunning. Take a peek:

We want an industrial look, but we also don’t want to be freezing in the winter. I’ve been told that steel windows have come a long way, but given that we’re living in Toronto, we’ve decided to opt for something more practical / affordable. Exactly what, we’re unsure at this point. While we decide, why not check out these inspiring views:
