Plastic windows in anthracite or white?

We are still undecided whether to choose plastic windows in anthracite or white. The anthracite windows are made of through-colored plastic and not foil-coated. In terms of the house style (modern, shed roof, no eaves), anthracite would fit well.

Unfortunately, anthracite will cost an additional charge; I will only find out the surcharge during the sampling phase.

Are there any other disadvantages of anthracite-colored windows; can they fade?

Can someone tell me something about the surcharges?

Who has experience?

The additional cost was 700 euros plus VAT for 11 windows and a front door.

However, branded frames were laminated.

Should the windows also be anthracite on the inside? Seriously? Sure, possible, but I would think about it again.

Should the windows be anthracite on the inside as well? Seriously? Sure, it’s possible, but I would think twice about it.

Why think twice? My parents' house had black frames on the inside, my terraced house too... unfortunately, my current one has visible white plastic on the inside... there is nothing more elegant than dark frames in black, and anthracite already comes very close to that.

Have fun dusting - besides that, you have to make sure the wall colors always match (with anthracite).

I find it stylish as a contrast inside in some cases, but it feels a bit more oppressive and therefore smaller.

I would really think about it...

Also take a look at other colors - anthracite has now become a real standard color. Which doesn’t make it ugly, but what if you want something special?

I also wanted anthracite on the inside, but I couldn't convince my husband, so the inside is now white. However, I would still prefer it. I like the contrast and we have all the walls inside white anyway. The additional cost was 20% for anthracite on one side. Having it on both sides would have cost a bit more.

maybe you could post a photo sometime. I would be interested to see how it looks with white inside and anthracite outside.
