Window Treatments for a Vacation Home
Many people dream of having a second home to enjoy during downtime from work. If you’re lucky enough to have one—or be close to buying one—you know there’s a lot to consider with that property. And having the right window treatments in your vacation home is definitely just as important as having the right treatments in your main home. At Bretz Interiors serving the greater Denver area, we have a few ideas for how to think about vacation home window fashions—read on for more!
Goals for the Space
No matter your mission for your second home—be it a quick weekend getaway or a relaxing weeklong vacation—you want to feel comfortable in the space. And to boot, if you offer your place on short-term rental sites, you have additional considerations regarding functionality and ability to withstand wear and tear. On top of that, you might have goals like maintaining a view or ensuring a peaceful night’s sleep. No matter your goal, we have a treatment to meet it.
Consider Aesthetics
Many vacation homes are designed with aesthetics in mind, and that means that the window fashions must coordinate with that look. For example, to complement rustic sophistication, consider Silhouette® Sheer Shades for a layer of style, or for a minimalist look, think about Designer Roller Shades for their clean lines.
Blind and Shade Functionality
To control direct sunlight (particularly the harsh afternoon sun), a great option is Silhouette® ClearView® Shadings, which are made with S-shaped vanes between view-through sheer fabric. These sheers will provide beautifully diffused light while preserving your view, so you can enjoy the light control while still staying connected to your vacation home’s surroundings.
Get A Restful Sleep With Room-darkening Shades
Vacation is frequently about recuperating, so sleeping well, without the bother of window issues, is often important in a second home. One popular solution is Duette® Cellular Shades. Made with honeycomb construction, these treatments will diffuse light during the day and help darken the room at night. Plus, for full light-blocking, you can add the optional LightLock® feature, which helps prevent light from entering through the gaps.
Bountiful Convenience
Vacation is a chance to take it easy and enjoy convenience. When you add PowerView® Motorization to your vacation home’s window fashions, you’ll get just that. You can use the Pebble® remote or the app on your phone to control each treatment’s movement, and you can set them to open and close at particular times—imagine waking up to the sunrise as your bedroom shades open automatically in the morning. Or think about the ease of controlling hard-to-reach window treatments in a vault-ceiling room. And think about the peace of mind you can have by being able to open and close the treatments even when you’re not there, giving potential intruders the impression that someone is in the home.
