Change the Look of Your Room with Window Coverings

 


 The New Year is right around the corner and we all could use a little change around the house. Blinds and shades can be real statement pieces and can even change the entire feel of a room. Here are just a few ways you can change the look of a room with window coverings. What look are you going for in 2021?

Make a Room Look Larger

Small spaces can be made to look much larger by choosing light, fabrics for your shades or blinds. Light colors and minimalist designs can really open up a room. Optimize the view outside during the day as if the outdoors is an extension to your room! If your view is not to your liking, use soft, light, sheer material to let the light in while keeping the view out. Hunter Douglas Luminette sheer shades would work well when you are trying to create a more open feel to a room.

Cozy 

Nothing makes a room more cozy than warm wood and/or textured fabrics. Natural wood shutters and blinds add warmth and a grounded feel to a room. Textured shades with the rich tones of nature make a room feel cozy and inviting. This look is great for rooms in your home where concentration or relaxation is the goal.

Structured/Minimalist

A structured look is great when trying to attempt a more minimalist look to a room. Wood blinds and shutters are great for this as well as vertical blinds and Panel Track Blinds. All of these window coverings are available in a myriad of colors and textures at Blind Solutions. Hard, clean lines are best to create the feel of orderliness and may even make a room seem larger.
 

Soft, Relaxing Feel

Soften up a room with fabric. Minimalize the hard lines and edges around your windows. Rich drapery side panels coupled with the soft folds of a Roman shade will create a relaxing feel to any room. Visit the Design Studio at Hunter Douglas for suggestions on the use of side panels, drapery and shades.
