Beautifully dressed windows add spectacular views to your home. Whether the window treatment is simple or elaborate, windows become the “eyes” to the outside world. They need to beckon, inspire and lure us to look out of them, to see the trees and sky, and whatever is beyond.
Many people come into a room and go first to the windows to see the view. Briefly stated, one of the major functions of windows is to frame that view, bring the outdoors inside and the inside outdoors.
Windows allow sunshine and greenery to come into our home, which can elevate our mood, make us feel relaxed or get us going in the morning. By the same token, at night, we need to limit the moonlight in our bedrooms so our bodies can rest, allowing us to feel restored the next day. Beautiful windows can make a major statement in our homes as an aesthetic element as well.
Problems arise when we don’t know what type of window treatment would work, how to design the window treatments, what types of fabrics to use, where to get the necessary hardware for our window treatments or the proper installation methods. These are some factors involved in creating not only beautiful windows and window treatments, but also treatments that actually function for the uses that we need. Many of us could use some help.
