April 22, 2016

You’ll want to take into consideration your window’s shape since many living rooms have beautiful arched or specialty shaped windows. You’ll also want to think about how you want the view outside framed, how much light comes through them, and how much privacy you desire. Your living room window treatments should give you control over light and privacy so that your guests get the feeling that they’re welcome.

Your living room window treatment options in Denver include:

Living Room Shutters In Denver

White plantation living room shutters 

Unlike shades, draperies, and blinds, living room shutters accentuate your arched, circular, triangular, octagonal windows - even your french doors. They’re custom made to your window’s specifications. All the angles, curves, and corners are intact. And your guests will take note of your eye for architecture - and appreciate that you thought about their privacy.

For a living room that will be used more for entertainment, how functional a window treatment is carries as much weight as how stunning it looks. You can adjust the shutter louvers using a tilt rod to get as much light as you want. And you can open the panels all the way to operate the window.

If your living room is formal, look for window treatments that are more sophisticated. Plantation shutters are easily recognizable by their wide horizontal louvers bound in a frame. Whether you pick a deep stain for Ovation® wood, weathered reclaimed wood, or a traditional white paint for Polywood®, the resulting custom window treatment matches the decorating style of your living room.

Living room shutters can keep your guests comfortably warm all through the evening. Simply close the shutters tightly for temperature control. And with Polywood shutters for living room shutters, you’re getting ultimate energy savings.

Barn Doors For Living Room Windows

As window treatments, sliding barn doors bring out the living room’s rich color palette. Choose midnight black paint or an espresso stain to contrast white walls and light colored furniture. For living rooms with dark colored walls or eclectic furniture patterns, a barn door with a fruitwood stain or snow white paint might work best.

Enjoy the landscape when you move the barn door panels on a track. With the panels on both sides of the window, they frame the view and become standalone pieces of art.

Shades For Living Room Windows
