How to Match Your Window Treatments to Your Style

What Is Your Interior Design Style?

So, what is your style? If you’ve lived in your home for many years and have been collecting and updating things as you go, you may not be sure what your style is. Fortunately, it’s easy to discover your style in a few steps.

  • Take a look around your house. Do you love what you have? If there are things you’re not a fan of, can you change their appearance with fresh paint or new hardware?
  • Find pictures of rooms you love in your favorite magazines, on social media, and on interior design websites, and create a mood board.
  • Identify the distinct features of items in your favorite rooms, including furniture styles, paint colors, fabrics, and accents. Now, compare what you already have to what you want. If the two don’t align, it’s time to overhaul your home’s interior.

Popular Interior Design Styles

These are only a few of today’s most common styles, but they’re a great starting point to create your unique aesthetic.

Industrial

As the name implies, industrial design embraces a factory-like appearance. It embraces metal, leather, and exposed architectural elements, like beams or brick. When choosing window treatments for industrial style, you can’t miss the mark with the clean lines of Designer Roller Shades. Pirouette® Sheer Shades are another excellent choice with their minimalist aesthetic that fills spaces with natural light.

Boho

Also known as Bohemian, this style is for everyone who loves a unique, exotic look. It takes a maximalist approach to décor and has many colors, textures, and layers. Boho design accommodates globally inspired items, like handmade wall hangings or pottery. Provenance® Woven Wood Shades, Parkland® Wood Blinds, or long, flowing curtain panels look fantastic in Boho-style homes.

Mid-Century Modern

Mid-century modern design is an iconic aesthetic that became popular in the mid-20th century. It’s all about featuring functional pieces to create simple, comfortable, and practical spaces. Mid-century modern homes have a lot of warm wood tones, like teak and rosewood, with bright accent colors and a mix of geometric and organic shapes. Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds are a phenomenal choice for mid-century modern interiors because of their functionality and seamless appearance. Designer Roller Shades with bold, geometric prints are another great option.

Traditional

This is one of the oldest and most popular styles because it never goes out of fashion. Traditional design is more formal and features structured pieces and symmetry. The primary color palette is neutral, with pops of color and movement from patterns, such as floral or damask. Carole Fabrics™ Custom Drapes are the quintessential window treatment for this style, but Carole Fabrics™ Roman Shades are another luxurious option.
