Last month, the Patrick Street Interiors’ blog explored the world of soft window treatments (if you haven’t checked out our post—take a look!). For this month, we are rounding out our window treatment design series by exploring hard window treatments. 

What exactly is a hard window treatment? Hard window treatments, also known as window coverings, blinds, shutters or roller shades, are made of more rigid materials such as wood, faux wood, metal, vinyl, or heavier fabrics. Additionally, hard window treatments are typically factory-made and affixed over top of a window. However, don’t confuse factory-made with lacking design. There are many customizable options that let our clients achieve their desired styles, while adding the practical  and cutting edge benefits of hard window treatments.

Light Control

Roller shades allow you to control the amount of natural light entering your space, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere.

Privacy

With adjustable slats or louvers, you can maintain privacy without sacrificing natural light. By tilting the slats to your desired angle, you can prevent a passerby from seeing into your home, without having to sacrifice incredible views or natural light.

Insulation

Hard window treatments add an extra layer of insulation, which helps keep rooms cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Not only does this help you live more comfortably, it can lead to energy savings.

 

By choosing a versatile window covering, such as these up-down treatments from our vendor, Hunter Douglas, you are able to balance privacy and light control throughout the day.

Durability

Hard window treatments are built to last, with sturdy materials that will withstand everyday wear and tear, especially in high traffic areas, such as kitchens or bathrooms. They are easy to clean, which makes them a reliable choice for many of our residential and commercial clients.

Innovation and Safety

Whether it be for style or safety, high-tech window coverings are making their way into homes. Winning an innovation award in 2023, Hunter Douglas’ Aura Illuminated Shades provide controlled light, no matter the weather, season or time of day.

 

Additionally, window covering manufacturers will soon be required by law to enhance the safety of corded window coverings by either designing cordless or hidden cord blinds, or remote-controlled products. Known as “silent death,” window treatment cords pose a strangulation risk for children and pets. If you have not considered updating your window coverings, we cannot recommend these options enough for our clients, especially when their home is a space shared with children, grandchildren or four-legged friends.

Like soft window treatments, hard window treatments are an investment in your space. At Patrick Street Interiors, we are experts in guiding our clients through the design process by helping them to consider the functionality and style they desire. We believe window treatments should add to, not take away from your space. We help our clients take precise measurements of windows before purchasing window treatments to ensure a perfect fit and can provide guidance on installation or referrals to our trusted installers.

Embracing Elegance: A Guide to Custom Window Treatments

Soft window treatments encompass a diverse range of stylish and functional options that add a touch of elegance to any space while providing practical benefits. The wide array of soft window treatments available allows you to express your personal style while achieving a pleasing balance between aesthetics and functionality.  The services that we offer here at Patrick Street Interiors elevate the beauty of any space by adding a personalized touch that reflects your individual preferences and complements the overall design scheme of your room. This bespoke approach allows you to showcase your distinctive style, creating window treatments that stand out as exclusive and special additions to your home. 

 

Below are just a few of the most popular styles of window treatments that we can help you create.

Custom Drapery Treatments

Drapery

There are so many options when it comes to custom drapery treatments. They can be functional or decorative; sheer and airy or heavy and dramatic; formal or casual.  Selecting the right fabric and style for your room takes a trained eye and a good understanding of what you need for your space.  Do you need privacy from the neighbors or to create a barrier from drafty windows?  Are you looking to have your room retain its lightness but cut back on the glare of the sun?  Perhaps you are trying to find the best way to frame a beautiful view out your window.  Custom drapery can help you accomplish all of this while also providing you with a canvas to express your personal style and design preferences. When approached correctly, custom drapery becomes an integral part of the overall interior design of your space, infusing a sense of exclusivity and luxury into your home.

Custom Roman Shades

Roman Shades

Custom Roman shades offer a versatile and tailored window treatment solution, allowing you to personalize your space with a variety of design options. There are many different styles of roman shades, from a simple flat shade, to the casual looking relaxed roman, or the more decorative hobbled shade. Additional embellishments such as trims, banding, or contrasting borders can be added to enhance the visual appeal. 

 

The functionality and simplicity of a roman shade is the perfect way to bring in a bit of extra color and pattern that perfectly suits your individual preferences and decor.

Pictured here: Jane Churchill - Luca Red & Hopper Teal

Custom Valances and Cornices

Top Treatments

While not as common as drapery and roman shades, top treatments still provide you with an excellent way to accessorize a room.  While valances are soft and cornices more structured, both can be used to provide decorative flair and both can be customized to reflect any shape and style.  Trims such as fringe, beads, cording and decorative tapes offer a great way to add detail and bring out your own style and personality.  Because these treatments are smaller in scale, they can offer a great opportunity to add accents and details to your space, without being too overwhelming.

Layered window treatments

Layered Treatments

If you are looking for a more elaborate and formal look for your window treatments, layering is a great way to enhance drama in your design. Sheers layered with decorative side panels create depth. Combining drapery panels with roman shades creates a layered and sophisticated window treatment that offers both style and functionality. Adding valances or cornices overtop of either roman shades or drapery can create height and visual interest to the window space.

In the world of interior design, soft window treatments play a pivotal role in shaping the ambiance of a room. Whether you prefer the timeless elegance of curtains or the practicality of roman shades, the key is to find a harmonious balance that complements your style and meets your lifestyle needs. At Patrick Street Interiors, we can guide you through the design process for any room in your house. Stop by our showroom to browse fabric choices, learn about the different options for pleats, and select the best hardware to achieve your preferred style. We would love to meet you and join you on your design journey!

Thibaut Malibu chair upholstered in bright yellow Prisma fabric

The Art of Upholstery: Crafting Your Home's Unique Design Story with Fabric

Upholstery fabric is more than just a covering; it's a conversation piece. The right choice of fabric can turn an ordinary room into an extraordinary one. It infuses warmth, personality, and style into living spaces, and creates inviting atmospheres that reflect homeowners’ unique styles.

But beyond aesthetics, upholstery fabrics also play a practical role; they need to withstand daily wear and tear, spills, family life and pets. That's why choosing the right fabric is so important. Upholstery fabric is an investment in the longevity and comfort of home, and with a little guidance, clients can ensure that their choices stand the test of time.

At Patrick Street Interiors, we specialize in upholstery fabric and work alongside our clients to pick the perfect pattern, weight, and weave for any space in their home. From chairs in the dining room (a project homeowners can tackle in a weekend!) to couches that are the backbone of the living room or a statement headboard in a bedroom, fabric is a design heavyweight. For us, it is important our clients are equipped with knowledge and personally guided throughout the design process.

Dining Room

One of our favorite places to start, dining room chair seat cushions are a true DIY project for our clients. When choosing a fabric, we recommend a heavy, woven textile that does not include embroidery. Dining chairs see regular wear and are at risk of spills, so it's essential to opt for fabrics that are stain-resistant and easy to clean. Velvet and chenille are both excellent choices, offering a touch of luxury to your dining area.

For a higher impact design, clients can custom make slipcovers for Parsons chairs at the head of the table.

If a client has their heart set on a printed fabric, we recommend either using it on the back of the chair or adding a backing to make it more stable. Printed fabrics are also fun choices for custom placemats or a tablecloth.

Living Room

The living room is probably the most obvious space in the home to incorporate upholstery. Whether it be anchoring pieces, such as sofas or armchairs, or pops of pattern added with custom made ottomans and pillows, there are large and small design projects that we guide our clients through to ensure cohesive and lasting design.

During our design consultations, we don't just consider aesthetics; we help clients understand the technical qualifications of fabrics. Clients learn about crucial factors like the Wyzenbeck Double Rub and Martindale abrasion tests, which determine how well a fabric choice will age in their space. We believe that living rooms should be both beautiful and practical!

Bedroom

In the bedroom, upholstered headboards add softness, texture, and pattern. We specialize in creating custom headboards to match your unique style. Beyond fabric choices, we help clients decide on headboard shape, tufting, and sheen preferences, to create one-of-a-kind showpieces that sets the tone for their personal sanctuaries.

Image: Thibaut's fabric and wallcovering

Outdoor

Don't limit creativity or good design to indoor spaces! Many of our vendors offer fabrics suitable for outdoor use that provide water and UV resistance without sacrificing style. We love outdoor fabrics for their vivid colors and the opportunity to add flair to unexpected areas in the home.

Image: Shumacher’s “Citrus Garden” Indoor/Outdoor collection

 

At Patrick Street Interiors, our showroom is bursting at the seams with fabric samples, and we know that there is one that is waiting for you. Our expert team is here to navigate the intricate world of fabric and ensure that whatever the choice—whether it's a statement piece for the bedroom or a beloved living room staple—it will be as functional as it is stylish.

Wall to Wall Design: Elevate Your Home's Aesthetic with Wallpaper

Wall to Wall Design: Elevate Your Home's Aesthetic with Wallpaper

From its rich history to its numerous practical benefits, for more than 2,000 years wallpaper has offered a world of possibilities for interior design. It is one of our favorite ways to instantly infuse our clients’ signature styles into their homes. Wallpaper instantly transforms a room adding depth, character, and visual interest. When choosing the perfect pattern, we guide our clients through a process that considers scale, personal style, durability and how it transitions throughout other spaces in the home.
​

Scale

The size of the pattern matters and homeowners should think about the purpose of the room and the mood they want to create. Large-scale patterns can make small spaces feel more spacious, while softer, muted patterns work well for creating a calming ambiance. Vertical patterns, like in this transition space, draw the eye up, adds a feeling of height and airiness.

 

Image: Romo’s Pluma Wallcovering in Blush, W444/03

Patterns

Wallpaper should reflect the homeowners’ personal style, but it can also be influenced by geographical location and architecture of the home. For traditional tastes, botanicals and stripes are timeless choices. For more contemporary styles, graphic prints such as geometric patterns make a bold statement.

 

Image: Thibaut’s “Sandy Point” wallpaper

Texture

Choosing a wallpaper with texture, such as grass cloth, cork, animal hide-inspired or wood paneling, can add visual interest without overwhelming a space. Textured wallpaper can also serve as a transition element between spaces.

 

Image: York’s natural grass with metallic accents wallpaper

Feature Wall

If you want to add some drama but are afraid that a pattern will overwhelm the space, try using it for a feature wall or framing it as a piece of art (we did this in our showroom!). Also consider mural inspired wallpapers for feature walls which can transport you to another world entirely.

 

Choose the wallpaper first and then complement it with paint, ideally in a lighter shade that doesn't compete. White is an obvious choice, but also choosing a color in the same family as the wallpaper will still allow the feature wall to take center stage.

 

Image: Mind the Gap’s “ERFOUD”

Durability

When considering wallpaper for different areas of your home, durability is key. For high-traffic zones, like hallways and stairwells, or moisture-prone spaces such as the kitchen and bathrooms, commercial-grade vinyl is a smart choice. These wallpapers are not only washable but also capable of withstanding the challenges posed by steam and humidity, ensuring your design remains the wallpaper remains as beautiful as the day it was installed.

At Patrick Street Interiors, our showroom has a treasure trove of premium wallpaper samples from sought-after designers. Whether you're yearning to create a snug bedroom retreat or infuse vibrancy into your living room, wallpaper can help you achieve the look and feel you desire.
