TraditionalTraditional styles are timeless. They are always in style. This style is leaning toward a more formal look. Make sure that your home is evoking the classic look that this style has to offer to achieve a unified design. Add drama by coordinating panels and valances. Use silk, satin, velvet, brocade or tightly woven fabrics for more volume. Choose pinch-pleated and rod pocket styles. Layer sheer or lace panels underneath the main drapery treatments to add privacy and to filter the light. Top the drapery with jabot, wooden or upholstered cornices made with matching colors and materials. Embellish with fringes, tassels and tiebacks. Choose thermal or lined drapery window treatments to help with insulation. Make sure to choose colors that match or complement the colors found in the room to make it cohesive. -
Casual DraperyCasual window drapery treatments would work best in an informal home. These do not have many frills. A casual style adds a feeling of comfort. Often, you will find a casual-style drapery covering windows in family rooms, kids' bedrooms, studies and playrooms. Choose a tab-top panel or casual Roman shade. Choose fabrics made with combination cotton and polyester for comfort. -
ContemporaryContemporary custom drapery treatment is more modern. Just like casual window treatments, it has no frills or ornamentation. This type of window treatment works best in contemporary or modern homes. The style is devoid of pleats. Try gossamer or woven, metallic fabrics and add grommets to hang them on rods. Choose contemporary patterns such as block, graphical shapes, horizontal lines or vertical lines to add visual interest.
