Embrace the Sunshine: Summer Interior Window Treatments to Lighten Up Your Space
By John Akins, ShadeCraft LLC
As the sun dances high in the sky and warm breezes whisper
through open windows, summer invites us to embrace the vibrant
energy of the season. When it comes to interior design,
selecting the right window treatments can enhance the summer
ambiance, allowing sunlight to illuminate your space while
maintaining comfort and style. From breezy sheers to practical
shades, here's a guide to summer interior window treatments.
Sheer Elegance: Sheer curtains epitomize summer sophistication.
Delicate and airy, these translucent fabrics gently 昀椀 lter
sunlight, casting a soft glow that brightens up any room. Opt
for light pastel hues like soft blues or pale yellows to evoke a
sense of tranquility reminiscent of a sun-kissed afternoon. Sheer
curtains not only allow natural light to 昀氀 ood your space but also
provide a subtle layer of privacy, making them an ideal choice
for those seeking both beauty and functionality.
Solar Shades for Sunnier
Days: When the summer
sun beats down with intensity,
solar shades come
to the rescue. Crafted
from UV-resistant materials,
these shades block
harsh sunlight and glare
while preserving your outdoor
view. Choose from a
range of opacities to tailor
the level of light control
to your preference. For a
