Comments (5)Plantation shutters do block a lot of light. It doesn't seem like you need much privacy. Interior mounted top down bottom up blinds would be great. Or roller shades to use only as needed if you think they could be up most of the time....See Moreneed help with window treatment for living room
Comments (16)All of your choices are nice and the floral is pretty. I am not clear on whether this will be for drapes and/or shades. The two smaller windows look like they are more candidates for shades or blinds versus drapes. Plus there appears to be a fireplace in the center of those two windows - and the whole setup there really doesn’t seem to have adequate room for drapery panels; at least not for adequate panels. You would like a sort of laid back, welcoming feel to the space and you are in California. I would recommend something along the lines of bamboo shades on all the windows, or maybe woven wood type shades or blinds - there are lots of great textures and styles in those. You could also go with some simple Roman shades. But the idea is - something neutral/open/airy on the windows - and then bring in some pattern and maybe a touch of more vibrant color in pillows and other accessories. I don’t know if you are planning on art for the space - but that could have color, also. But it could also be black and white photographic art - maybe a gallery wall. Or metal or fabric art. Whatever art you love and I really do not see art as an accessory. Art is art. Below: Not your color scheme here - but all the throw pillows + the throw could work with your colors and design....See Moreneed help for windows treatment
Comments (2)What do you need form the window coverings? Is it heat or UV control or just something to dress up the windows. You will need to but 108” drapery panels and hem them or go custom. I love the view outside so I think unless you need privacy I would not get much in the way of blinds that would block the view....See Moreneed help with window treatments
Comments (4)I'd suggest doing a roller shade or honeycomb shade on the windows and stationary panels on sides that go from floor to ceiling. I'd suggest ditching the valance or if you like the idea of a valance so something straight across and butt it up to the ceiling. Going all the way to the ceiling will add height to the room and make it feel bigger....See MoreDouglah Designs
