A window is a sharp visual transition from solid wall to light filled void during daytime and to dark filled void during night-time. A window is also an opening through which one may look out and others may also look in (view and privacy). A window also lets the light, and sunshine in; but it also allows sunlight to fade the carpets and the furniture. A window can provide access to fresh air (ventilation); but it also brings in cold drafts and creates heat loss during the winter months as well as heat reflection that impedes air conditioning in summer months (energy).   ..These inherent qualities of a window present a challenge and an opportunity to design a window treatment according to the needs and life styles of the home owner. One must remember that, practicality and aesthetics go hand in hand. APPEARANCE - "How it looks" - The treatment must play its role in the overall "look" of the room. FUNCTION - "What it does" - whether it can solve any existing problems as well as if it can perform specific functions.   TOLL FREE 1-866-217-7779 FREE SHIPPING!
