Add Elegance to Your Kitchen with Window Treatments
The kitchen is often the most popular and functional room in your home and having it compliment the rest of your home decor can sometimes be challenging. One way to add style, color and function to your kitchen is to add beautiful window treatments. There are a variety of kitchen window treatments to choose from, and the right option will consider both your functional needs (light, privacy, accessibility) and design preferences. No matter what style you choose, kitchen window treatments can help you create a space that is both functional and stylish.
Whether you’re looking for something modern or something more traditional, there’s sure to be a kitchen window treatment that’s perfect for your home. Let's explore some window treatments that can bring elegance to your kitchen!
roman shades
These fully functional unlined linen shades shown above, not only add an elegant look to this kitchen, but provide the perfect light filtering element and privacy the client desired. Choosing classic roman shades offer the opportunity to introduce fabrics with color, pattern, and varieties of texture to the kitchen. Roman shades are a versatile kitchen window treatment option that can be made for light filtering or even blackout options, making them perfect for any kitchen whether traditional or contemporary.
In addition to their aesthetic appeal, roman shades are also highly functional. They can be raised or lowered to control the amount of light and privacy in the kitchen, and they can even help to reduce energy costs by keeping the kitchen cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Pleated shades
Graber’s Pleated Shades inspire textiles from a broad spectrum of colors, patterns, and textures, all folded into crisp pleats. Liners can also be added to create the full range of privacy and light control levels.
Intriguing fabrics are what set the pleated-shade category apart. Playful new fabrics by Graber provide an opportunity to enhance your decor and feature either one inch or two inch pleated styles. An option that other shades do not offer is the Sun Up/Sun Down feature that combine two fabrics for versatility in style, light control and privacy.
cellular Shades
If function is the priority, no other shade can compete with the cellular shade. This shade continues to be a favorite for versatile functionality and energy efficiency. With cordless and motorized options, cellular shades can function top-down or bottom-up and also provide minimal stacking for an open design. Cellular shades are fully customizable, with four cell sizes and four opacity levels in a variety of fabrics that offer a combination of elegance and functionality. As featured above, Graber cellular shades can also be an option for sliding glass doors.
sheer Shades
Sheer Shades present a distinctive and elegant look. Clean and modern, these “soft blinds” combine the gentle, light-filtering attributes of fabric shades with the reliable light control and functionality of conventional blinds. When open, two layers of sheer fabric provide light filtering and protection from damaging UV rays. When closed, the lightweight fabric vanes overlap to diffuse or block the light. What makes these shades so attractive is the softness and variety of colors. Sheer Shades are also available cordless and motorized.
top treatments
For many kitchens you simply don’t want to obstruct the view and light of a window. A top treatment can add the style you desire by either being mounted outside the window or inside the window. These window treatments can be customized in a variety of styles with the fabric of your choice. Top treatments are perfect for adding height to a window and bringing color into your kitchen. The top treatment above beautifully accents the kitchen decor and is customized to look like a roman shade.
