Dining Room Window Treatments
Soft light for the daytime, a proper room for the evening.
The Problem
Soft light for the daytime, a proper room for the evening.
A dining room is judged under two very different lighting conditions: flat daylight at lunch, and candlelight at dinner. The treatment has to flatter both, and it usually has to provide privacy at exactly the hour the room is most lit from inside.
This is the room where top treatments still earn their place — a cornice or a tailored valance gives the window architecture that a bare shade never will.
What We Recommend
What actually works in a dining room
These are the treatments we specify most often here, and why — not a catalogue, just what holds up.
Cornices and tailored valances
Our workroom builds them to the window. They hide hardware, correct an off-centre window, and give a dining room the finished look people are usually after here.
Honeycomb shades under drapery
Duette Architella insulates a room that often sits on an exterior corner, and disappears behind panels when it is not needed.
Hardwood shutters
Heritance hardwood shutters suit the formal end of the Gold Coast housing stock, and let you tune privacy without shutting out the light entirely.
Sheer panels for bay and bow windows
A bowed dining window is a shape problem before it is a fabric problem. Sheers cut on the curve keep the geometry rather than flattening it.
