Assessing your Windows, Doors and even outdoor areas for Window Furnishings/Coverings
What Window Furnishings or Coverings work best for your home, your circumstance and your lifestyle?
Here are some things to consider:
- Internal and External Colours of your home - you must know these first, before ordering shutters in order to match the colour tones.
- Where is the window/(s) positioned
- Window size and ceiling height can affect visual perception and spacial awareness
- Try work with your wall colours in order to create continuity by creating dramatic contrasts and you will impact on that spacial awareness.
- Street Elevation - anything visible to passing by traffic. The Window treatments should be in keeping, all with the same extended look.
EG: you would not want Sheer blinds and Curtains upstairs visible from the street and Shutters downstairs...they need to match - Air flow - opening a shutter at night will allow air to flow through effortlessly where a Curtain needs to be drawn.
