Window Treatments Solutions for Arched Windows
Some windows are easy to "treat" or "dress" and others a bit more difficult. Over the last 20 years builders have been adding a lot of arched windows to make homes more interesting from the inside and out. These windows can be more difficult to "dress." However, in order to make the home more comfortable, to provide privacy, shading from the sun's glare, and aesthetic beauty, the design team at House of Oak & Sofas has found these practical ways to eliminate the problems presented by arched windows.

The Smart Arch ™ (pictured on the left) provides a great solution to covering any hard-to-fit arched window. This beautiful, durable foam PVC product is built to include several deluxe features: lovers, mounted with individual spring-loaded tensions screws, a 2˝ decorative molding frame, and an incredible louver thickness of 1/4 inch. Fits perfect arch windows from 22.5 inches to 73 inches diameter. Louvers are adjustable. Priced from $149.00.
The Adjust-A-View window treatment (pictured on the right) fits half circle windows from 48” to 120” diameter and quarter circle windows from 30” to 72” radius. Easily adjust window treatments to open, closed or any position in-between. For more details go to www.adjustaview.com. This is the “Cadillac” of arched window treatments but offers the most benefits as well. Motorization may be added.
Be energy smart!
Aveno® Everest™ shades are the pinnacle of energy
efficiency. With their double honeycomb construction, Everest™ cellular shades
not only provide the highest level of insulation, but also filter out harsh UV
rays that can damage interiors and upholstery. Everest™ shades can be customized
to simply filter light coming into a room, or to actually darken an especially
bright room. But no matter if your choice is for light-filtering or
room-darkening shades, both models feature a uniformly white appearance from the
outside. Shades can be fit for regular shaped rectangular windows or for
arch-top perfect arch windows. Arched shades are stationary and do not open and
close.
