Things to Consider for Specialty Shaped Windows
If you have a window that’s an unusual shape—such as an oval, an octagon, a trapezoid, or an eyebrow—or if you have a skylight or a Palladian window, you’ve got a specialty shaped window. It can be tough to figure out whether those windows need to have window treatments—after all, they’re beautiful and unique, and you don’t want to hide them. However, you might also have some light- or UV-control needs, so window coverings could come in handy. That is where Blinds & Designs serving San Francisco plays a key role. We’ll help you determine which blinds, shades, shutters, or draperies will work and perform to your specific needs and desires.
Less Is More With Window Treatments
A specialty shaped window already stands out in a room because of its shape, line, and light. If you use a contrasting color on it, the effect will be magnified, and the color will become the focal point in that room. When possible, work with the architectural structure of the window. Too many lines in and on a window can be confusing and take away from the beauty of the specialty window. If you don’t need privacy and light is not an issue, the specialty windows are beautiful untreated!
