I really wouldn't call anything doing with that view a design dilemma. It's like living in a treehouse! Are the window coverings for privacy, light control or merely decorative? I ask because if they're merely decorative, you could put up faux curtains on either side that are stationary but will add some color and texture to your space. You could also do the faux curtains and put sheers on one continuous rod. That way you get privacy, but some light comes through so even when in use you can still see some of the beautiful view.

I would suggest removing the verticals and stick with horizontal blinds or shades. You will be amazed at how open the room will look once those verticals and the valance come down. I would recommend doing one large treatment or three separate. If you did three I would recommend one large in the middle covering the two inside panels and one on each outside panel. You have crank out windows so it may be nice to do a shutter with a frame so you can have your slats open without hearing the slats clank when your windows are open. That way too your husband can tilt and control the shutters to see whats going on outside. If you did the shutters I would recommend either leaving them without a valance or doing simple side panels to bring in some color. You can also do a window shading versus a silhouette, which will give you the same look but at a less expensive price.

Thelinstyle, since I'm not paying for it - these gorgeous windows deserve sheer linen or stubbed silk complete with the curve on the left. They would give you the privacy of the mini blinds and flatter the beautiful outside - couldn't see the scenery. And while you are at it, wireless open/close. You balcony overview (there must be a snazzy word for it) brings back sweet memories of my view long ago.

Personally, I would choose a big window in this situation. Beautiful, practical, comfortable, much more light and all the advantages. Since I am a big fan of glass products, I always monitor new trends in this area. So it was a surprise for me that a well-known company https://www.glassstructureslimited.com/glass-links/ introduced a new technology glazed link between buildings. Look, I think you'll like this idea.
