With several technologies and trends popping out of nowhere, industries have been keeping up incorporating as many innovations as they can. While keeping your preferences and concerns in mind, designers keep incorporating amazing textures, styles, and preppy colors into their work.
While keeping up with trendy home treatment options is not an easy job, you must always ensure that your house is well updated and maintained years into living in it. This isn’t limited to sticking to maintenance tasks religiously. You have to choose the right materials off the bat. Remember that every little detail affects the overall design and functionality of your home.
Yes, that includes even the minute details you might not think about that much. Window treatments, for example, dictate how light enters certain rooms in your house as well as how you control the light (and heat settings) in each room.
Here are three window treatments ideas you should consider for your NJ home.
Roman Shades
These are made up of a single continuous piece of fabric that features horizontal folds running down the length of the shade. When you put down the window, the folds lay flat; similarly, when you raise the window up, the folds fold up in a nice and orderly manner.
As such, the roman shade window treatment option gives your living room the soft finishing of a fabric drapery, while at the same time giving you the functionality of a shade.
Solar Shade
Also referred to as window sunglasses, this option has an opaque design, which allows preservation of your outside view, and at the same time giving you considerable light control in your living room. They come in various openness factors that range from 3 to 14 percent.
Note that the more the opening allows, the more you will preserve your external view and the more light you allow into your house. Solar shade also allows you to block sunlight from entering your home in times you need to, such as when you need to sleep to when you desire privacy.
Shutters
This category not only ranks among the classic window treatments available today but also directly adds an architectural design to your windows. Window shutters are modern, economical and safe. They also exude an all-American feel that traditional homes look best with.
If you are seeking for a treatment option that will add value to your home, shutters are the way to go. Their elegance reflects on not only the inside of your house but also a picturesque view outside. It’s a two-way road, giving you benefits in more ways than one.
You might have realized that you were taking window treatments for granted all along. These home features control the light settings in your home, and we all know how important that is — not just in terms of utility costs and visual appeal but also in physical and mental health. So take your window treatment option seriously.
Additionally, when selecting window treatments, remember that children safety features such as motorized operations, and cordless treatments are now available for all categories. You should consider activities that will be conducted in each room and match them with ideal window treatment options.
