Living Room Window Treatments: Inspiration and Ideas
Your living room is the first room your guests see when they visit, setting the style for the rest of your home. It’s the room you spend the most time in – make it truly yours with custom blinds and shades. Whether you are moving into a new place or updating your décor, now is the time to focus on window treatments that pull your room design together and give you that finished look.
The first step is to consider how you really use your space. Do you snuggle in comfortably at night relaxing with your favorite TV show? Or do you primarily use it on weekends when you’re entertaining? Maybe you share the room during the day with kids, friends, and pets.
Next, think about what you need from your window treatments. Would you like more privacy from nearby neighbors? Do you have large windows that bring in afternoon light creating glare on your TV? Do you want your window treatments to make a style statement when you host parties?
Whatever your needs – light control, elegant style, complete privacy, or energy efficiency – we encourage you to order FREE swatches to ensure you make the right choice. Test, compare, and play with your options!
Living Room Window Treatment Ideas for Light Control
To determine how much light control you need, observe which direction your windows face. If they face east or north, you may want to simply soften the light. If they face south or west, you might prefer more light filtering during the day. And if your windows bring in outside light at night, you may need to block out the light completely.
Living Room Light Filtering Shades
Your need: Filter and soften morning or early afternoon sunshine and provide moderate privacy at night. Perfect for windows that face north or east.
Your Goal: Create a cohesive design with gently diffused light during the day and ensure privacy at night.
Your Best Choices: Feather-weight Sheer Shadings are available in Light Filtering to soften light whether the vanes are open or closed, and Light Dimming to block light and provide complete privacy when closed.
Fabric Roller Shades gently soften the light while maintaining your privacy. With our wide selection of colors, textures, and patterns, and your choice of light-filtering, room-darkening, and blackout opacities, you’ll find the perfect solution for your living room.
