Spring Window Treatment Trends for 2023

People often overlook window coverings unless they clash blatantly with a room’s décor. Well-chosen treatments can complete and even enhance the mood you want to promote. The perfect materials can help create a cozy, calming room or a cheerful, light-filled chamber. Switching from vinyl blinds to drapes can help the mood change from utilitarian to homey simplicity.

 

When you want to redecorate but need to work in stages, a change in window treatments can have an immense impact with little disruption to your usual schedule.

 

Roman Shades

Fabric shades that lie flat when covering a window completely, and fold up neatly when open, were first fabricated nearly 2,000 years ago. Around this time, the Colosseum was under construction.

 

Roman shades can be made of almost any material to match the décor of any room. They are relatively easy to install and maintain and may provide added window insulation from the cold of winter and the heat of summer. These traditional shades are a preferred window treatment choice for many and remain a favored style, perfect for any room in the house.

 

Blackout Curtains

As the centuries-old contest between urban and rural areas shapes populations, streetlights and lighted signs tend to mark the more settled areas. With the lights that burn through the night come the occupations, such as first responders and medical personnel, that require some to work while others are sleeping.

 

Sleeping in a lighted setting can be challenging as light immensely impacts the body’s circadian rhythm. Room darkening is a trending tool ideal for combatting struggles to sleep well.

 

First popularized in World War II, window treatments made with blackout materials block most of the external light, allowing the body to slip into the deep sleep we need for mental and physical health.

 

Layering Drapes and Sheers

Another trend making a comeback in 2023 is hanging sheer curtains to let plenty of light in when desired, covered by heavy drapes that shut the light out when closed. These heavier drapes can also act as a layer of insulation against the heat of the summer sun and the bitter cold of winter.

 

This classic combination lends an air of vintage elegance and softness that invites you to enjoy the view of the world outside. Combining sheers and drapes can incorporate plain fabrics or prints that tie a room’s décor together.

 

Additionally, you can incorporate a splash of Viva Magenta, the color of the year, in the fabric of your drapes for the perfect touch of color without overpowering the rest of your style choices.

 

Wood and Natural Materials

Wood and natural materials in a home never go out of style and help to give a cozy feel to any room. Blinds made of linen can range from nearly opaque to translucence that fills a room with light.

 

Wood and bamboo blinds or shutters can add warmth to a cozy library or den. With and with age, these materials gain a patina that adds to the richness of your interior design. For homeowners wanting to move away from plastics, wood and bamboo may be the perfect addition to your decorating toolbox.
