Choosing the right awning color may seem like a simple task, but in reality there are many factors that we must take into account.

A sun protection system is a long-term investment, so it must not only fulfill its function of protecting us from the sun, but it must also complement the aesthetics of our house and improve its visual value.

For all these reasons, from Toldos Guardamar, we want to help you by providing you with some advice and considerations when making the best decision when choosing the optimal color for your awning.

Consider the style and architecture of your home

The first factor to consider is the architecture of your home. If your home is classic or traditional in style, you may want a more conservative awning color, such as beige or white. However, if your home is more modern or contemporary, you can choose a bolder color, such as dark gray or black.

However, there are no strict rules. If you like a particular color, go ahead!

Consider the climate of your area

The weather is also an aspect that can influence the choice of the color of the awning. If you live in a very sunny place, as is the case on our wonderful Costa Blanca, contrary to what we normally do with our clothes, a dark color will better reflect the sun’s rays and keep your home cool, as well as allowing you to have greater comfort. thermal and visual. Therefore, a lighter color will allow more light to pass through compared to dark colors or special colors.

Think about the function you want to give it

What are you going to use your sun protection system for? If you are going to use it mainly to protect your home from the sun, you may want a different shade than you would choose if you want an enclosure to increase privacy, since in these cases, a darker color may be more appropriate.

Give importance to your personal tastes

Lastly, don’t underestimate your personal tastes! The color of your awning should be something that you love and that you enjoy looking at every day. If you have a favorite color palette or personal style in your home, choose a shade that complements that style.
