How do i do Window treatments for peaked ceiling - My ceiling is peaked with beam down the center and windows on both sides,
. The windows have angled tops from beam down about 40", each. The top windows are 60" from highest point of angle. Then a 2nd window is rectangular under top window, on each side and 80" long. I need the window treatment/ curtain to block out eastern sun in a.m. If I want non- custom window treatment, what do you recommend? If I go with custom window treatment, what do you recommend? Thanks. Mary with unusual windows in Colorado »
Krannitz Gehl Architects Wish we could help you there, but we haven't come up with any good solutions for window coverings on angular windows. Best we could suggest is a drape treatment that would pull from the shorter end to the longer one, with a fabric tie to hold it in place in the open position.
If anyone out there has any suggestions, we (and Mary!) would certainly welcome them!
Krannitz Gehl Architects While these stairs are unusual, they are to code (they fall under the category of ladder access to a loft), and easy to use (much better than the typical loft ladder!). The double handrails do help. We have three of them in this house - all leading to kids' lofts. The Owners love them!
Everything about this space is designed for maximum efficiency: There's a built-in desk under the stairs and a loft over the hall and the bathroom. And check out that ladder — very cool.
