Cabins and summer houses offer an opportunity to connect with nature while providing a respite from daily stress. The abundance of wood inside these structures creates a cozy atmosphere. However, no cabin is complete without suitable window treatments that provide privacy, light control, and style.
What window treatments are perfect for your cabin?
Cabins often have a rustic aesthetic that can be enhanced with window treatments. A wide range of styles, from shades to shutters, can fit into cabin decor when made from the right materials and colors. Let’s explore some window treatment options that are ideal for cabins and summer homes.
Natural Shades
Natural shades made from eco-friendly materials can add charm to your cabin or summer house. Woven wooden and bamboo shades allow gentle, filtered light into your rooms while maintaining privacy. We can also pair them with a room-darkening liner for more light control.
Woven Wood Shades
Woven wood shades are crafted from soft, natural materials and fold beautifully. They complement rooms with wood accents, such as wood floors, windowsills, and furniture. These shades come in various natural colors that match your interior decor.
Bamboo Shades
Bamboo shades add natural texture to your cabin’s decor. Our bamboo shades are made from organic bamboo sourced from around the world. You can also opt for a fabric Roman shade for another textural element. For added convenience, motorize your bamboo or Roman shades to raise or lower them with a single press of a button.
Wooden Blinds
Add a touch of sophistication to your cabin with wooden blinds. We offer a wide range of stain and paint options to complement your existing interior design, including a natural wood finish. Wooden blinds provide versatile light control, as you can adjust the slats to let in the amount of light you desire. We offer slat sizes ranging from 1 to 2.5 inches and can install them inside or outside your windows, depending on their depth and style. For added safety, consider cordless blinds, especially if you have pets or young children.
Curtains and Drapes
Long, flowing curtains or drapes can add warmth to your summer home’s living room. Opt for neutral colors like beige and natural green to maintain a balanced aesthetic in your cabin decor. Pair light-filtering curtains with cellular shades for total privacy and light control. Cellular shades are great because they stack neatly and are barely noticeable when raised. They come in various styles, including sheer, light-filtering, room-darkening, and blackout.
Interior Shutters
Match your window trim with custom-made interior shutters. We can color-match our shutters to your window sills, floors, or furniture. Our interior shutters are available in various stock colors and finishes or can be custom-stained or painted. For a brighter look, consider light wood or white shutters for your cabin’s darker rooms. We offer several louver sizes for optimal light control.
Interior shutters can provide great insulation and energy efficiency for your cabin windows, and they come in composite materials that prevent warping. Bi-fold shutters are a great option for large windows, offering privacy and light blocking when closed, and panoramic views when open. We also offer custom-built shutters for unique window shapes, and our local design specialists can provide free in-home or virtual consultations to help you find the perfect window treatments for your cabin.
