Choosing the right window treatment for each room in your home is about more than just style—it’s about function, comfort, and creating the right atmosphere for how you live. At Made in the Shade West Cincinnati, we provide custom solutions that consider how light enters your home, your privacy needs, and the aesthetic you’re aiming to achieve.
Bedroom
Let’s begin with the bedroom, a space designed for rest and relaxation. Here, blackout shades or drapery are ideal. They help block out unwanted light and provide optimal privacy. Our cellular or roller blackout shades are a popular choice because they combine minimalistic style with maximum functionality. For added elegance, layering with soft drapery panels gives a cozy, luxurious look.
Kitchen
In the kitchen, functionality and ease of cleaning are top priorities. Faux wood blinds or roller shades are resistant to humidity and are easy to maintain. Light-filtering materials are a great option for allowing in natural light while keeping out harsh glare. For breakfast nooks or dining areas, consider woven wood shades for a touch of organic texture that adds character and warmth.
Living Room
Living rooms often serve as multifunctional spaces. You may want to maintain a connection with the outdoors while managing privacy and sunlight. Sheer shades or layered shades offer the best of both worlds. You can enjoy filtered natural light during the day and add a layer of privacy as the sun goes down. Add motorization for ease of use and an elevated experience.
Bathroom
Bathrooms present a unique challenge—they demand privacy and must withstand high moisture levels. Faux wood blinds, vinyl shutters, or top-down/bottom-up shades are excellent for maintaining privacy without sacrificing light. Materials used in these treatments are mold- and mildew-resistant, making them perfect for high-humidity environments.
Home Office
For home offices, light control and reduced glare are crucial—especially if you’re working with screens all day. Solar shades are a smart choice. They maintain an outside view, filter UV rays, and reduce screen glare without completely darkening the room.
Design & Style Considerations
Beyond functionality, window treatments are a big part of your interior design. Roman shades bring timeless elegance and a tailored look. They are perfect for formal rooms like dining rooms or sophisticated sitting areas. Draperies, on the other hand, bring drama and softness and can be paired with shades or blinds for layered luxury.
Children’s Rooms
When it comes to children’s rooms or playrooms, cordless and motorized options are the safest. We take child safety seriously
