Each room in your house serves a different purpose, and therefore each room needs a distinct window covering that best supports that purpose. This is especially true in the kitchen, where the functional use of your kitchen dictates the type of window treatments that will work well in that environment. At Windows, Walls & More serving the Novi area, we can help you make a selection that works and looks perfectly in your kitchen.

Kitchen Considerations for Window Treatments

What makes your kitchen special? Before you start shopping for window treatments, consider these kitchen issues:

Are any windows directly above the sink?

• Do you get a lot of light through  your kitchen windows?
• Do you want a window treatment that can either filter or block out the sun completely?
• Are there times of the day you would like the window treatment to disappear off the window?
• Do you need privacy in your kitchen?
• Is there a sliding or French door that needs covered?
• Do you have a specialty shape window such as bay window, skylight, etc.?
• Does your kitchen open up to another room in an “open concept” design?
