A Pop of Warm Color!
When I say yellow, I don’t literally mean only yellow! What I mean to emphasize is the fact that bright accent colors are just perfect for front doors during summers. You can use bright yellows, jazzy reds or striking apple greens. The idea is to add color to the dry and lifeless summers. Isn’t it nice if the front door brings a whiff of fresh air into the dull outsides.

A Checkered Pattern
Summers are all for transparency. Don’t we love to use light curtains and see through divider screens in our interiors? Well, the outdoor home deserves some transparency too! Use a checkered pattern as shown in the image below. Let the basic framework be carved out of wood and the square inserts be decked with glass. If you are worried about the door fitting into winter attire later in the year, use frosted or echoed glass instead.

Shades Of Vintage
Painting the front door in shades of vintage is another great way to greet summers in style. You can use a pale custard shade of yellow or a nice vintage blue to get the desired effect. ‘Theme Vintage’ complements summers perfectly so you don’t have to worry a bit about greeting your visitors this summer.

Create Some Drama With Iron Work
The Mediterranean countries, all known for blazing, ruthless sunny days, use wrought iron in their decor. The reason is simple. Wrought iron is easy to mould into most ornamental and elaborate shapes and blends perfectly with glass and wood to create a delicate, balanced and light effect. Try using the combination of wrought iron, glass and wood into your front door and create magic in your outdoor home!
