Home Office Window Treatments
It can be overwhelming to shop for window treatments—after all, all the rooms in the home are used for different purposed and have different aesthetics and needs. And that can be especially true when looking for window treatments for a home office. However, at Windows, Walls & More serving the West Bloomfield area, we’re here to tell you it’s easier than you might think. Read on to learn some of the ways you might approach your search for home office window coverings, and be sure to contact one of our consultants for your particular questions.
Determine Your Goals
As you think about your workspace, consider the things that will help you feel comfortable, motivated, and ready to focus. To get there, your goals for the space might be to reduce glare, insulate, minimize distraction, or increase convenience. And window treatments can help!
For Glare Reduction
Glare can be a problem for computer work and online meetings, and it can leave you squinting through your workday. To reduce glare, consider Designer Roller Shades from Hunter Douglas, which offer clean lines and a classic look that make them great for nearly any aesthetic. If you choose the Duolite® option, you’ll get a light-filtering sheer combined with a room-darkening liner, which will let you get enjoy natural light when you want to and block the glare when you need to.
For Insulation
If your home office is one of the colder rooms of your home during winter, it could be a good idea to try to insulate the window and keep the warm air in the room and the cold air out. Made with a honeycomb design, Duette® Honeycomb Shades trap air at the window and are one of the most energy-efficient products we offer. Plus, you can choose from numerous fabrics and pleat sizes to match your aesthetics for your home office.
For Reducing Distractions
An outside view is great for your kitchen or living room, but what’s going on out there can be a huge distraction while you work. Sheer fabric can help by letting natural light in while reducing the view-through at the window. Even better than plain sheer is the Silhouette® Window Shading, which is made with two layers of sheer fabric with an S-shaped vane between. Simply tilt the vanes to obscure your view, and you can still enjoy beautifully filtered light through the sheers. If your office window is on the larger size, a second option is Luminette® Privacy Sheers, which are designed with rotating fabric vanes that give you 180 degrees of light control.
For Adding Convenience
If your window treatment operating system is hard to reach or you just want to adjust the treatment without leaving your desk, you can add PowerView® Automation as the lift system. With this product, you can control your window covering using the Pebble Remote or an app on your phone, or you can tie the operating system to your whole-home automation system, and control your window treatments by voice. No matter your approach, there’s no question that automation can bring convenience to your at-home workspace.
