Best Ways to Treat a Window Seat

Window seats are frequently the prized perch of a house, with great views, cozy settings, and the offering of a place to unwind. But just because they’re well-used doesn’t mean people should skip them—they have the same needs as any other window, from light and privacy control to protection from UV rays and more. At Blind Builders here in Feasterville, we know how important it is to strike a good balance of form and function for a window seat, and we’ll be happy to help you determine the right solution for yours. Check out some ideas below, and be sure to contact one of our representatives to discuss your unique situation.

Window Seat Considerations

Sitting at a window seat frequently means leaning, so be sure to think about window coverings that are soft and durable, to withstand the pressure, especially if you’re working with three glass sides. If you’re looking to make your window seat have a cozy, hidden-away feel, you might want to add drapery outside the opening. For a deeper seat, check out PowerView® Automation for the operating system; it can help make opening and closing the treatment easier. Finally, if your plants get to hang out on the coveted window seat, think about solar shades, which let in nourishing light but block the heat and glare.

A Few Options

Although we carry a wide variety of solutions for window seats, these tend to be the most popular:

• Roller Shades. With clean lines and a timeless aesthetic, Hunter Douglas Designer Screen Shades will complement nearly any style and are simple to operate. People appreciate their sleek appearance, and they’re made in over 370 fabrics from sheer to opaque. Plus, they’ll allow you to maintain your view.
• Roman Shades. Sophisticated and soft, Vignette® Modern Roman Shades are available in numerous textiles that will give your room a modern, elegant feel. With lovely teardrop-shaped folds and no exposed rear cords, Vignette keeps your windows uncluttered and safer for children and pets.
• Woven Wood Shades. Made from natural materials, no two Provenance® Woven Wood Shades look totally alike. The earthy, rich wood tones of woven wood shades are crafted from natural reeds, grasses, woods, and bamboo that will transform the flow of light into your space. With Provenance, you can choose from the lighter, refined weaves or deep-textured fabrics to add an “organic” vibe to your window seat.
