The curtains should protect the room from to much sun and heat.

You have a hot water radiator there so I would be careful with curtains.

Do you want to see out but block the light? There are solar shades. They have a clean modern appearance and they can be made of different varieties of light blocking fabric - block more or less light depending on your need.

Also showing a roman shade - it could be a full block and I like the crisp tailored look You can choose from a gazillion fabrics.

I agree use a solar roller shade, if you are concerned about light you could always do a double roller shade so that you have the best of both worlds. Solar and black out. They can be installed vertically and be covered with a valance so that the double rolls are hidden.

I would: install a great set of blinds, there are some great products on the market. Next install a set on drape panels on either side of he window. Doing this will solve all of your issues and take the radiator into consideration.

A big thank to all for the great ideas. I like the idea from Design Theory Inc. to use a valance, to cover the rolls.

A great suggestion Design Theory. Here are some images of the Dual Roller w/ a matching Fabric Covered Cassette Valance that really does finish the look & covers the roll. You get to choose which fabric you want the valance to be in. Another suggestion would be the Highlite Shades which are alternating bands of sheer & fabric which can be closed when privacy is needed and open for a nice view.

Insulated cordless roman shades would be my choice.

I use blinds chalet.com. Very reasonable and a 2" faux wood cherry embossed would warm up the look in your space. I order from them all the time and I do the quick ship. There cheaper and hold up wonderfully! Curtains just Hold germs and more maintenance! I'm putting blinds in all my buildings now and doing away with curtains.
