Favorite Window Treatments for Open-Concept Living
Open-concept living spaces are a popular and modern style of home architecture that opens traditionally closed sight lines and makes a space feel more and full of light. This setup can involve 360-degree light from all directions and sets the stage for socializing and entertaining large groups.
However, homeowners may find it challenging to balance all this open space with areas theat still feel intimate. Large spaces can echo and make conversation feel difficult. You don’t want to cramp the space, but you also don’t want to leave it feeling uninviting. Fortunately, Hunter Douglas offers several beautiful window treatments that can help muffle sound, create different zones in a large space, and differentiate design to complement open-concept homes.
To help you strike inspiration, here are some of our favorite window treatments for open-concept living spaces:
Hunter Douglas Designer Roller Shades
In an open-concept home, where every surface is visible from every other, your window treatments become part of the architecture. That's what makes Designer Roller Shades such a natural fit. A minimalist shade keeps things neat without tipping into sterile, and with 370 color choices, it complements your design scheme instead of competing with it. The Whole House Solution™ option pairs horizontal and vertical styles so the look stays balanced from one area to the next—to look coordinated, not identical. Run the same shade across a long wall of glass and it reads as one intentional plane rather than a patchwork, which keeps a large room from feeling busy. We offer fabrics that soften incoming light so the space feels warm and inviting rather than glaring, making them a strong choice for great rooms, sliding glass doors, and other large expanses of glass.
Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades
When an open floor plan blurs your kitchen, living, and dining areas into one undifferentiated space, Vignette® Roman Shades help you give each zone its own identity while keeping them in conversation with one another. Their uniform folds and elegant fabrics of Roman shades add visual intrigue without cluttering the room, and the soft fabric surfaces help take the edge off the echo that makes big open spaces feel loud. Raised, they stack neatly to keep sight lines open, and the cordless design makes them a safe pick for homes with small children or pets.
Carole Fabrics™ Custom Drapes
If your open-concept space feels loud, drapery solves both sound and design problems at once. Soft, full fabric panels absorb sound and soften the hard reflections that make large rooms echo—the single most effective treatment here for quieting an open plan. They also bring personality: Carole Fabrics™ Custom Drapes add elegance and drama without overpowering the room, and with thousands of modern colors and patterns, we have something that will amplify your design. Pair them with a horizontal treatment for even better light control, privacy, and noise reduction, and ask our team about layering window treatments to pull the whole look together.
