While some rooms demand form over function and others work best with minimalism, sometimes you need grand window coverings. Whether you are decorating your dining room or upgrading a master bedroom, sometimes you just need something a little more elegant rather than basic.

Elevated Window Coverings

If you want something a little grander, you cannot go wrong with some chic curtains or drapes. Drapery itself is inherently elevated. It adds a lot of dimension to a room and brings rich layers of color and texture. Curtains are not just visually elegant, but they add a tactile element to a room, too.

Shutters, with their architectural interest and sophisticated design, are also a great way to elevate a space. These window treatments also add dimension and interest to a room. They embody both clean lines and a sophisticated style all at once.

Which Treatments To Avoid

Though there’s not really a “wrong” window covering, there are some styles that are more associated with functionality and a basic style rather than elegance. For instance, blinds are a great aesthetic choice for many rooms but aren’t necessarily the most elegant or posh design choice. The same is true of their vertical peers, the vertical blinds.

What To Know Before You Buy

Make sure you have a clear handle on what you want from your window coverings. From style story to functionality to maintenance, consider all aspects of having them in your house. Do you want something grand and timeless? Perhaps drapery is the way to go. Just be sure you know your color and material preferences, along with room dimensions and your preferred amount of maintenance, first.
