Hunter Douglas Parkland® Wood Blinds

A window seat offers a cozy place to unwind, to read, or to just enjoy the scenery. If there is a window seat in your home, you probably want to preserve its style. That’s why it’s important to get the right window treatment. At F&R Interiors serving the greater Los Angeles area, we have many different solutions. Check them out below, and be sure to contact one of our specialists for more info.

Things to Consider

Window seats can be very sought-after spots, so they might get a lot of traffic. Here are some things to think about:

  • Often when people sit, they’ll lean, so think about choosing a treatment that’s able to withstand the pressure, especially if your window seat has three sides of glass; also think about a treatment that is soft and comfortable.
  • If you add drapery outside the opening, you can create a cozy, hidden-away feel.
  • If the seat is deep, think about adding PowerView® Automation for the operating system, to make opening and closing the treatment easier.
  • If your window seat is an area for your plants, look solar shades, which let in nourishing light but block the heat and glare.

Additionally, you can customize your cushions and any throw pillows by matching or coordinating the fabric in the Hunter Douglas Design Studio™.

Woven Wood Shades

Due to the natural materials that Provenance® Woven Wood Shades are made from, each shade is entirely unique.
