4 Custom Window Treatment Ideas for Your Living Areas

If you’re building, remodeling, or simply tired of the current window treatments in your living areas, you might be overwhelmed with all the choices available for window covering options. As with most things, one of the best ways to start the process is to think about how you actually use your living spaces. For most people, these rooms are for relaxing, socializing, and entertaining – but some of these uses will rank higher in importance than others.

Then we have the practical and aesthetic considerations, such as light control, energy efficiency, and décor and style. Does this sound like a lot? Maybe, but let the custom window treatment experts at GHT Group help with a few suggestions for your Roswell, GA home. Ready? Explore four popular options below.

The Green Option

If you're concerned about energy consumption and the environment, you might consider cellular shades. The cell design traps air between your window and interior, helping your air conditioning cope with the Georgia summer heat and keeping in warmth in the colder months. The concept is akin to the double-paned glass in your windows that similarly insulate. And with full motorization and control, you can filter the sun or let it in whenever you want.

Light Filtering 

Want the option to let in the light, filter it, or block it completely? Motorized roller shades are the ideal solution. For the front shade, choose from many fabrics with varying levels of translucency to filter natural sunlight. If your living area doubles as a media room, double it up with a blackout shade behind the filtering one. You can have the best of all worlds, with full light control when you want it. 

Hardwood Blinds

Love the traditional and warm look of hardwood blinds? Did you know those can be powered for tilting on command? Enjoy the look of blinds with easy control at the touch of a button or a don't-think-about-it schedule. Plus, you can enjoy the look of hardwood without the maintenance – today's faux materials offer realistic and beautiful finishes that won't warp or fade.

The Beauty of Drapes

You can add drapes to pair with shades or function as your window treatment. Go completely custom with your fabric and motorized drapery tracks that require no effort to open or draw closed. Alternatives like Lutron’s Kirbé vertical drapes give you the option of vertical installation to reveal the full window design and the view out. 

Effortless Control

Get the fully custom look you want with the effortless control of automation. The options we described here can be controlled by your choice of wall keypads, touchscreens, smartphone apps, and full smart home control systems. Whether you want to micromanage your window treatments to your whims or have a no-touch schedule do it for you, control is completely up to you.
