The Art of Windows, Shades & Drapery Design…
Windows offer so much character to a home, interior & exterior. An Architect or Builder will use them to give the face of the house style. The frames come in many colors, shapes & sizes. Accenting the windows with Transom Windows, Arches, Shutters, Stone Frames & Window Boxes for plants. Tall narrow windows, floor to ceiling heights, wide widths & some bay & bow for extra depth. So there are many ways to enhance the structure style of the house. But with all these gorgeous styles comes the challenge to dress them on the inside.
Windows give rooms natural light & are positioned for a pretty view. Though windows are the eyes to a room & make the space in a room feel grander, they can become an issue for the homes interiors. Too many windows can make a room hot in the Summer & cold in the Winter. Windows create a glare from the sun that affects the view on the TV. Sun damage on rugs, hardwoods, & furniture. The sun glare can make finishes on cabinets oxidize. There is a need to cover them & dress them correctly.
Window shadings offer a lot of solutions for sun glare, energy efficiency & most important privacy. We carry top of the line shadings: Hunter Douglas, Lafayette Interior Fashions, Hartmann & Forbes.
