Stylish Coverings for Modern Kitchen Windows
Modern kitchen design has become more and more popular over the years. Gone are the days of cluttered countertops and overly busy décor. A modern kitchen allows you and your family to operate smoothly with daily meals, school lunch prep, and entertainment. Our team at Royal Furniture and Design is delighted to discuss the characteristics of a modern kitchen and what type of window treatments would suit this décor motif the best.
The Makings of a Modern Kitchen
The true hallmark of a modern kitchen is that the less you have, the more you have, meaning the fewer the objects, the more space is granted for function and purpose, letting you use your space more effectively. Crisp lines are another dominating feature as they add to the overall efficiency of this design style. Use geometrical shapes to add to the interest and long horizontal lines to create the appearance of a larger kitchen with more open space.
A prominent island is also paramount in a modern kitchen. It will become the visual focal point and be an excellent space for projects, family dinners, and holiday prep. Since a modern kitchen is so streamlined, it is the perfect candidate for bold colors. Staying away from pastels is a good idea as they will not complement modern appliances, which are usually black or stainless steel. Instead, pick black or white paints and materials along with metal accents.
Modern technology is also a feature of a modern kitchen. Investing in state-of-the-art small and large appliances will add to its functionality. Select window treatments that echo a modern kitchen's streamlined, efficient personality. Let's look at some of the options we carry at Royal Furniture and Design.
Blinds for a Sleek, Modern Kitchen
Hunter Douglas Modern Precious Metal Blinds are superior for sleek lines and bold colors. We carry these blinds in over 70 colors and finishes, so you will find a hue that makes your modern kitchen come alive. These blinds are perfect for high-traffic kitchens as they clean up easily with soap and water.
You can opt for three slat sizes: ½", 1", or 2"; the rule of thumb is the thinner the slat, the sleeker the aesthetic. You can control your light and privacy by simply tilting the slats manually or with intelligent automation.
Hunter Douglas EverWood® Alternative Wood Blinds are another viable option for your modern kitchen. These blinds use composite materials to withstand the humidity and moisture common in a kitchen while simultaneously satisfying your design taste with the elegant look of natural wood.
Decorative tape or a streamlined cornice can add even more aesthetic appeal. These blinds, when open, will give you a complete view of the outdoors with their 2" or 2 ½" slat sizes.
Shades for a Sophisticated Modern Kitchen
Hunter Douglas Designer Roller Shades are one of the best-suited window treatments for a modern kitchen. When completely rolled up, they virtually disappear, leaving your kitchen windows clean and wide open so light can pour in and you can enjoy views of the natural world while doing your daily business.
We offer these shades in over 370 fabrics and color choices. You can use a bold solid or an interesting subtle pattern to add a splash of visual interest.
Hunter Douglas Alustra® Woven Textures® Roller Shades are perfect to add some understated texture to your modern kitchen. These shades use globally sourced fabrics, and you can select from various exciting colors ranging from warm tans and browns to crisp whites and creams.
You can consistently achieve a finished look with top and bottom treatments to add more appeal to these shades.
