Need help designing window treatments for your home or office?   Contact Jamie Kern, ASID, President of DTIC at [email protected]

I’m not typically a fan of an overdone window treatment.  No swags, tassels, layers of gimp and bouillon fringe, tie backs, scarves or 18″ of puddling.   There’s certainly nothing wrong with these elements but my design style is a bit more streamlined.  I prefer something a bit more tailored or more relaxed.  I believe window treatments should be functional and attractive but not the focal point of a room.  I try to work with the exterior views and use window treatments as a means of framing the view and softening the hard window lines so that a space feels more comfortable and easy. A Roman Shade is one of my favorite treatments.   They can be tailored or informal, but they are wonderful for giving a homeowner the option for privacy when needed and simple beauty when privacy is not paramount.
