Window Treatment Ideas for Traditional Interior Design

Traditional rooms have a certain weight to them: real wood trim, rich upholstery, and furniture that's built to last. The windows are part of that picture, too. A treatment that's too contemporary or too minimal for the room doesn't just stand out; it can undercut everything else in the space. Blinds Plus has been helping Springfield-area homeowners get this right for years. Here are the traditional window treatment ideas we suggest most often for homes with traditional interior design.

Hunter Douglas Parkland® Wood Blinds for Traditional Rooms

Wood blinds work well in traditional rooms because they relate naturally to the furniture and trim already there. Hunter Douglas Parkland® Wood Blinds are available in several stains and paint colors, so you can match the tone of your floors, cabinetry, or molding. They also give you practical control over sunlight and privacy without adding fabric to the window.

Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades for Classic Style

Roman shades bring fabric into a traditional room without the fullness of floor-length drapery. Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman shades stack neatly at the top of the window when raised and do not have exposed cords across the face of the fabric. A warm neutral works well with patterned furniture, while a stripe or a classic print can add more visual interest to a quieter room. Vignette® shades are also available with PowerView® Automation for hard-to-reach windows or for anyone who prefers to schedule light changes throughout the day.

Custom Drapery Panels for a Timeless Look

Traditional interior design usually treats the window as a full architectural element, not just something to cover. The classic approach is to layer a functional shade or blind at the glass with custom drapery panels at either side of the frame to add volume and frame the view. At Blinds Plus, we carry drapery fabrics and work with homeowners to find panels that coordinate with existing color palettes and furniture. Hunter Douglas Parkland® Wood Blinds paired with custom drapery is the most requested traditional window treatment combination we put together.

Hunter Douglas NewStyle® Composite Shutters for Traditional Homes

Interior shutters have been part of American interior design long enough that they feel genuinely at home in traditional rooms. Hunter Douglas NewStyle® Composite Shutters give the appearance of real wood with a composite core that holds up through Missouri's seasonal humidity swings. The wide louvers add an architectural quality to the window that fabric treatments can't match. You can tilt them to redirect light toward the ceiling for bright, glare-free afternoons, or close them completely for full privacy whenever you want it.
