Frequently advantage of old houses is their attractive location. They are usually located on large plots, which tend to be a plus beautifully maintained gardens with old trees.

Elevation after facelift

Most strikes us schematic elevation of the ankles, their poor form: typical windows merging the gray plastered walls covered with flat roof. The impulse to improve the appearance of the facade is the insulation of external walls and footings. It is often necessary, because the cubes were built with poor materials weakly thermally insulating. Change in elevation also made during the window replacement. Most window replacement combined with thermal insulation walls. This type of architecture provides a much wider choice of composition window shapes than the traditional architecture. Their multiplicity makes the elevation properly designed to completely change its appearance. We can choose portfenetry, windows, strip, corner, curved, triangular and round. Combining different types of windows, fits well with a simple, closed block cubes, diversifies the facade, it enriches, creates her individuality. New shapes of windows allow the ankle to give the nature of modern villa. When we compare the windows of various shapes, you must ensure that their top edges were at the same level. Replacing windows on portfenetry or large balcony windows can also affect better links between home and garden.
