Will seems I still don't know how to upload several photos at once so I will have to send them all individual. Sorry.

Here is a good pic of the window and you can see the smaller ones that flank it

And lastly here is a picture where you can see the windows in the French doors that are in the living room, next to this banquette area. Please note that I would not get a full length Roman shade, I would just get it stationary because there is nothing but woods behind us and I don't have to worry about people seeing in the house.

I would leave it as is if privacy is not an issue. The view is wonderful. I have to say, though, that I never use window treatments other than on the front windows which face the street, so my opinion is not exactly unbiased. ;-)

Thanks cyn. I think my main reason for maybe wanting to do it is to just add some texture and color.

Your home is so beautiful! And what a lovely view you have out that window. I agree that you could go either way, but I think I would like the fabric just to tie everything together and to add a bit more softness to the space.

I'd add a valance out of the same fabric as the kitchen window, but I'd probably do a softer style, something a little dressier so it would go with the beautiful dressy chandy there. Love the soft colors.

I like it with no treatment. I think it would be fine with a treatment, but then you also have to factor in the two small windows on either side of the banquette. Someone more graphics-savvy than me may be able to do a mock-up, but I'm thinking that there may be a disconnect when there is a treatment on the large window and the small windows inches away are left plain. Or maybe they're small enough and recessed enough that it wouldn't be a problem??

Part of my question did ask if I did put a roman on the big window, should I also put them in the small ones

Yes, i would treat the large window with a stationary roman shade or modified roman shade. You could either treat the small windows or not, i dont think it is a dealbreaker either way.

This is the kind of window where I would suspend a large, framed, stained or beveled glass piece.

Agree with others that a shade on the big window would tie it to the kitchen and complement the seating fabric. I wouldn't do the smaller side windows.

What a pretty home and setting. Your fabrics and colors bring in the outdoors. I love it. I think adding the fabric to that window would look nice and, as mentioned above, show off your light fixture which I didn't notice until I read that. It will also cozy up the area.

At first I thought no because your view and chandelier are nice features. However because the window seems to have understated moldings, and the rest of the look is a little more formal, it does seem like it needs something. Unlike others, i think panels would be nice but thats only if the banquettes arent adjacent to the window (cant tell from photo). I think it would be nice to frame the view rather than have something on top of the window taking away somewhat from the chandelier. Good luck!

I love the window just as it is, but would suggest an area rug or two to give softness and color to your beautiful space. The wood flooring is wonderful, of course, but there is so much of it that the look is a bit cool and impersonal, and rugs would add character to this space.

I don't want to put an area rug because to the right of that window is my living room and it has a large white shag area rug so I don't want to right next to each other

Since this is an eating "nook", it really seems more like part of the kitchen. Beautiful room and fabric and I would put the roman shades on the windows in the eating area also. You can "have your cake and eat it too" with roman shades - you don't have to cover much of your lovely view.

Hi chloenkitty,

You have a beautiful home with wonderful views to the outside. As a Interior designer I would suggest to apply a soft, translucent fabric such as two sheer curtains for the window treatment to avoid obstructing the view. Additionally, if you want to tie the dining area with the kitchen you can add a topper with the same fabric you use for the kitchen window without applying anything to the small side windows. This suggestion coordinates well with the style of the overall space, such as crystal chandeliers, white cabinets, contemporary tufted dining seating, and contemporary furniture in the living area. With anything you decide to choose, please attach pictures of the final result.

Good luck!

I would tie the two windows together.

Gorgeous space and view!
