Drapes in the Bedroom
Trying to decide between shutters or drapes in the bedroom? It can be a tough choice, as both styles of window treatments boast functional and aesthetic benefits that come from their distinct construction styles and base materials. Read on to learn more about adding drapes in the bedroom versus shutters below to see if this is the right fit for you!
Benefits of Drapes in the Bedroom
- Dramatic Aesthetic: There's nothing that grabs attention like a full set of flowing drapes in the bedroom. The rich fabric folds, the dominating spatial coverage, and a dramatic aesthetic that can be styled from romantic and elegant to soft and chic thanks to seemingly endless fabric options.
- Light and Sound Blocking: Fabric makes an excellent base for bedroom window shades because of its ability to block or absorb both light and sound. When opting for drapes in the bedroom, look for styles that have a blackout back liner for enhanced room darkening and sound dampening effects.
- Complete Privacy: When drawn, drapes in the bedroom provide complete privacy because they cover the entire window blocking any and all visual access to your room from the outside world.
Benefits of Shutters in the Bedroom
- Versatile Light Control: Shutters provide a versatile range of light control for the bedroom with their tilting louvers that can permit or block natural sunlight. Whether using the bedroom during the day or night, shutters can be responsive creating lighting appropriate to the time and activity.
- Natural Air Flow: With their unique slatted design, shutters in the bedroom can create cooler interiors by opening to permit natural air flow. They can even provide fresh air when partially closed and, when used in tandem with other shutters in the home, they can create cooling cross breezes without sacrificing privacy or light control.
- Smart and Sophisticated Style: Classic plantation style shutters have clean lines that translate into a sophisticated feel no matter how the window treatment is styled. From modern design with large louvers and dark hues to classic treatments in warm wood tones and discrete louver widths, shutters in the bedroom elevate décor as astutely as they control light and air flow.
Benefits of both Shutters and Drapes in the Bedroom
Layered window treatments offer the best of both shutters and drapes in a single window fashion for the bedroom. Together, the two treatments enhance their complementary features, especially light control, by blocking any light leaks that the other may let through. This results in a more comprehensively darkened interior with both the sophistication of shutters and the visual drama of drapes in the bedroom.
