How You Can Cover Different Sized Windows In The Same Room In Dallas

June 07, 2021

Almost all rooms have standard rectangle windows that make it straightforward to find identical window treatments. But sometimes a space has different shaped or sized windows that make buying window treatments a challenge. If you have to cover different sized windows in the same room in Dallas, you can use the same style, neutral colors, and layering to create consistency. Or use separate treatments to break up a room or to spotlight a singular window.

Cover Different Sized Dallas Windows In The Same Room With Identical Window Treatments

The best method to give a space’s different-sized windows a harmonious design is to use the same window treatment style on them. This styling trick removes the focus from their varying sizes and achieves harmony in the room. To do it properly, use custom-made window treatments in a style that works on all window sizes and shapes, such as plantation shutters.

Plantation shutters have panels with a row of louvers made of faux wood or wood. In contrast to blinds and shades, you can have shutters custom-fitted for any window shape and still open and close them. Both real wood shutters and faux wood Polywood® shutters are strong enough to use in most rooms in your Dallas home.

Make Mismatched Windows Not Stick Out With Neutral Colored Treatments

When you cover different sized/shaped windows in the same room in Dallas, neutral colored window treatments work better. Neutrals like white, browns, or beige are calming and help balance unsymmetrical features. Subdued colored window treatments make windows blend into your decor so that their different sizes don’t stick out so much.

Neutral palettes present plenty of versatility. You could use beige or white roller shades for a minimalist look. Or add a bit of sophistication to a formal room with ivory or gray Roman shades. And plantation shutters with a natural wood or white hue match all types of decor.

Conceal Varying Sized Windows With Layered Window Treatments

You may also cover different sized windows in the same room with layered window treatments to hide their variations. If a room’s window sizes aren’t that different, hang curtains at the same height for all of them to make it appear that your windows are all alike.

Then layer the curtains over |plantation shutters or textured woven fiber shades to give interest to your windows and distract from their mismatched sizes.
