Windows bring a unique functionality to your home that no other feature of your home can give. They are your home’s eyes – allowing the rich splendor of the outside to trickle indoors. Windows give us the ability to predict the weather (Yes, it is going to be another gorgeous morning!), and they also help us keep a watchful eye over our kids or grandkids playing in the yard – while still cooking dinner. In fact, windows invite the smallest streams of natural light to penetrate the inside of our home, even on a cold and gray November day.
Enhance your privacy with a custom decorative glass solution.
Yes, windows truly are a matchless feature of our home. They are our gateway to viewing the rest of the world.
But windows aren’t without some disadvantages, too. When not sealed properly, windows can make a home feel drafty, and from time to time they can even leak. Ironically, though, the biggest drawback of windows (and glass doors) is the same reason why we love them: because they let the outside in.
Windows make us lose our privacy. They allow the outside world to peer into our homes – and into our private lives – day and night.
Obviously, solutions do exist to give us our privacy, such as curtains, blinds and shades, but they will also cover up what we love most about our windows, too – natural light.
Traditional window treatments are designed to accomplish two things: create privacy and block light. Some window treatments are more decorative – like valances – which don’t provide any privacy. Others, such as sheers, allow some sunlight to flow into the home while maintaining a degree of privacy, but the truth is, sheers don’t really do either very effectively. They either allow too much light (which hinders privacy) or too much privacy (which hinders light).
Why do window treatments have to limit either privacy or natural light? Don’t you wish you could have both?
Actually, there is another option.
