    You need window treatments on the fireplace wall and nothing else. Interesting room. Good luck!

    Window treatments and nothing else needed for this modern style.

    I agree with the above. Window treatments and nothing else.

    Another vote for window treatments only!

    I agree, I think window treatments would help it feel like there was less negative space.

    Thanks everyone for your replies! I was hesitant on window treatments because I need every bit of light in this room. But perhaps some Roman blinds that are constantly up would do the trick. What does everyone think? Here’s more pics of my living room. Any other suggestions for this room would be appreciated.

    Yeah, you know what I’m going to say: window treatments. How about some dummy panels that just dress the window? You don’t have to cover them.

    How about something like this so the light still comes in.


    Im not

    sure what a window treatment is.

    i also wanted to take advantage of the light. So this is what I chose.

    the one to the pool is less opaque, As It was at one time more visible to passers by.

    Gillian, as I understand it, a window treatment is anything that "dresses" the window, so curtains, drapes, shades, blinds... You chose sheers for your windows.


    Danny, I totally understand wanting to keep the windows bare for light. I think those windows would look better if they were "dressed" similarly to the ones on your other wall. As Susie suggested, you don't have to use the curtains - stack them aside - but it's nice to have enough fabric to allow so. i wouldn't use roman blinds when curtains are on the other wall so near but that might be just me.

    I do like the sheers idea for your "view" (excuse me, no offense, --which isn't gorgeous, right? :)
    Alternatively, on the other end of the spectrum, you could order hinged custom shutters that let in that view/daylight entirely.

    @danny (op) i love your floor. What material and colour are they?

  • 7 years ago
    Thanks all! I’ll likely try Roman blinds with an outside mount in a linen color to pull in the accent chairs and coffee table. Or matching curtains and always leave them to the side. Decisions decisions!

    By the way @gillian these are Mohawk laminate flooring that the builder installed. Called silver shadow. A gray wash with some light and some dark depending on lighting. I’m pretty happy with them. A wild change from a dark wood solid hardwood from our previous home.

    Oh really! Thanks for the info. I installed Mohawk laminate In my home! ‘Driftwood,‘ I absolutely love it! So hard wearing.

    I definitely agree with everyone else about adding some window treatments (either drapes or sheers), but I'd also add a floor planter to add some greenery as another color to the space.

    Inexpensive roller shades should do the trick. Don't add anything else
