Hi! That could work, but might be a tad casual? Have you considered the distorted "film" products you can apply to the glass to reduce glare and light? You can find these products on line. It's pretty simple to apply. Each have their own instructions, but you generally spray water on the window lightly, apply the film and squeegee the product tightly to the glass and remove excess water. You can peel off if later you want a change. Check that out before you spend money on a non-functional window treatment.

IMO solar shades are the answer they control heat and UV but allow the view which IMO in thta space would be a nice thing.

I wouldn't worry about a laundry room being too casual. :)

(I have never heard of this type of "activity room" but it sounds pretty great.)

I love it. I can work on the computer while watching tv, work on my calligraphy or other art projects, and do laundry all in one space.

Solar Shades are great but a lot more expensive. Here is example of what I mentioned above. Lots of different designs. Fun look but easy and inexpensive!!

Agree with Flo’s idea if you want a permanent film on the windows for privacy and some light filtering. We did one of those designs on the ridiculously large front window of our barn bathroom. After 3 years it still looks good.

Just regular screen fabric corded roll blinds, different colors, very reasonable, different percentages of light filtering. We have them on three big windows in our great room and look great. Steve's.

Solar shades are totally inexpensive I use the ones from Steves blinds iften and very affordable and also operational.

Are we talking about the same thing? Solar shades/screen shades?

Not interested in solar shades. Perhaps a simple pleated shade under a non-functioning faux Roman shade or the corded roll blinds.
