Arched windows on the front of a home are gorgeous to look at! Some builders love to use as many different shaped windows in a houseplan as they can which adds to the ambience of the home. Combine odd shapes with windows also being in a bay window area, a curved wall or a box window, and the stage has been preset for custom window treatments!
Unusually shaped window treatments are extremely detailed, especially if they are to be mounted inside the window instead of on the outside edge. A paper template has to be made, the window thoroughly measured down to the 1/8", and the correct style chosen to compliment the unusual window and make it a desirable design element in the home.
Shutters, cellular shades and fitted draperies are great choices for an inside mount treatment. Wood blinds do have arch shapes now, but the fit isn't ideal design wise. Custom top treatments, fabricated with an arch, eyebrow arch or even an octagonal shape bring the shape of the window into a completely different design element than just a cellular shade with an inside mount.
A professional workroom like we use at Star Furniture Custom Draperies can fabricate a beautiful compliment to shaped windows and our drapery installers know exactly where to install them for the most impact.
