Window Treatment Ideas for Maximalists
Are you looking for clever and functional window treatment ideas to match your maximalist style? If so, you’ve landed in the right place.
In essence, maximalism is about creating cozy and color-lucious spaces with your favorite patterns and textures. With so many options for this specific kind of interior design, finding the right combination can be tough.
Maximalism only has one rule:
More textures, more patterns, more color play. But when does ‘more’ become too much?
Although maximalism is an eclectic compilation of all your favorite colors and patterns, it can go sideways if not done right. And when the world is your oyster, it can be easy to go overboard and overdo it.
Window treatments are often the focal point of any room— and no matter your interior design style, it’s important to choose wisely. Read on for window treatment ideas and inspiration for your maximalist designed home.
Zebra Shades
Zebra shades, or sheer shades, can be an efficient and design-forward window treatment option for a maximalist’s home. Sheer shades are versatile in the way that they soften light but also offer privacy.
Aside from functionality, we love sheer shades for this style of decor because of the pattern play they offer. Sheer shades have distanced panels inside of them, allowing light to flow in between the panels. This is what gives the “zebra” effect, and why sheer shades work well in spaces where patterns and textures are appreciated.
Consider the color of your walls or a pattern you might like to feature. Sheer shades can also be a solid color so that other parts of the home can stand out instead. With over 200 fabrics and colors to choose from, our sheer shades can easily become a textured staple in support of a maximalist look.
Roller Shades
Roller shades have been an incredibly popular window treatment for a long time. Why? Aside from their superb functionality, roller shades can act as a blank canvas or become a sheet of pure color and texture.
When you’re choosing roller shades as your window treatments, the options and possibilities are endless. For practicality purposes, they can be wireless, be a total black-out option, and come motorized. When it comes to style and color? Roller shades offer even more options.
Our roller shades can be customized in tons of different sizes, colors, textures, and patterns. And when you’re working with maximalistic decor, the sky's the limit. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by your options and don’t know where to start, you can always book a consultation with our team to go over your preferences, space, and design.
Cellular Shades
Cellular shades are amazing window treatments for all around functionality, look, and value. We love cellular shades for a maximalistic window treatment idea because of how well it controls light but also stays on-trend. Budget Blind’s cellular shades can be custom ordered to fit any size or shape of window in your home. We can also create the window treatment in a plethora of textures and colors.
Layering Window Treatments
We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention drapes in this blog. Drapes and curtains can be staples in a maximalist’s home. Drapes offer an added element of design when layering window treatments, and give an opportunity to bring even more color into the mix. Patterns, fabrics, textures, and different lengths all contribute to a decked-out home full of pattern play.
If you know your patterns and color palette, any combination of drapes over the window treatments offered here could work. A few of our favorite maximalist layerings include solid colored roller shades with drapes that have a loud pattern on them. We also love to see sheer shades with interesting fabrics, layered with a solid drape.
Maximalism is a very free-form style, and that’s why people love it so much. It allows a person to bring out everything they love in their home and bask amongst their favorite things. Anything goes — but tastefully.
