Interior Design Question?
So we just finished up a small remodel on the office. The floors are now wood a reddish mahogany, the walls are painted a soft tan, and my husband just finished framing the window and put up a beautiful trim that is in white. The question is…I really like the trim and don’t want to cover it up with a curtain…would a roman shade (or any other suggestions) work there. And I’m thinking a really pale yellow for the color…will that be ok with the colors already mentioned? And lastly if i go roman shade can that stand alone or do i need a valance or some sort of drapery to pull it all together. I’m hoping less is more but am open to ideas. Thanks…sorry so long.
roman shades are a good choice…and they dont require a valance to finish them off. I think a better color choice for your blinds would be a darker color similar to the floor.
Another option would be to go with interior shutters, or cover only the bottom 2/3 of the window with shutters and use frosted glass paint to do the upper 1/3.
