2 Story Window Treatment Ideas – Hunter Douglas Country Woods 2″ blinds

Before

We have been designing a lot of 2 Story Window treatments lately.  They make such a statement in a room just because of their size.  Adding fabric to the wall in a grand scale helps to “humanize” the windows, visually bringing the top windows into the room and giving it a cohesiveness it may lack otherwise.  Over the next several weeks, I will share several photos of window treatment designs we have used in the greater Cincinnati area.

The photos today show the before and after of a challenging job.  I think you can see how the fabric treatments take away the empty feeling the room had.  These windows face west and the homeowners had a terrible sun issue in the afternoon.  Hunter Douglas Country Woods 2″ blinds were selected for all the 2 story window treatments, with the top windows using the battery powered motorized PowerTilt with Platinum Technology remote control tilt system.  The top windows are arched, so we used standard rectangular blinds and covered the top with an arched cornice – a great little trick to know.

A new paint color in the room, selected specifically to match the fabrics, ties it all together.  The clients love their new look and the light control they now have.

Motorized Window Blinds

I received a certification course in Somfy Motorized window blinds. What does that mean?

Simply put, adding “power ” to your custom window blinds adds a new dimension of convenience, child safety, and energy efficiency.  Custom Shades, blinds, or draperies can be motorized by either a battery powered or plug in motor.  If you are in the construction phase of a new house, hard wiring for window treatments is easily accomplished by an electrician.

This will eliminate the need for power cords or changing batteries.

Retrofitting motors into existing window treatments is also possible.

Battery Powered Wood Blinds

Battery Powered Wood Blinds are wonderful.  The can be purchased with “tilt only” capability or “tilt and lift”.  I had a call yesterday from a man who said his blind no longer worked.  I asked him if he had changed the batteries, and he hadn’t thought of that.  Depending on usage, every 1 – 2 years, the batteries will need to be changed.  Be sure and ask your installer how to change them so you will be ready!
