5 Ways to Incorporate New Living Room Window Shades into Existing Decor

Coordinate with Color

There are several ways to incorporate new window coverings using color, the easiest being the use of neutral hues. By definition, neutral colors go with nearly every other color, so they are easy to work with, even in highly individualized color palettes. Roman shades for living rooms not only come in a range of colors, including neutral tones, but their sumptuous fabric folds help add dimension and movement to keep the colors from falling flat in your interior design.

Balance Textures

One way to incorporate any new furnishing or decor item into existing interior design is to examine the textures already in the room and look for opportunities to balance and complement what exists in the space. Woven wood shades, for example, can add interesting organic textures to a room with many soft or plush items. On the other hand, full drapery can offer flowing textures in rooms with hard components like hardwood floors or wood furniture.

Unite with Patterns

Pick up on subtle or dominant patterns in your existing home decor, such as triangles or leaf patterns, and mimic them in your new shades for a living room to effortlessly coordinate style. Roller shades are a great option for patterns, with their flat, seam-free fronts making the ideal canvas for fabrics with prints and patterns.

Elevate with Unique Style

When it comes to living room window shades, they don't have to blend in to coordinate with existing decor. Making a statement piece with shades near City of Industry can be highly successful by matching nuanced details of color, texture, or patterns through fabric choice. We offer a wide selection of colorful Hunter Douglas shades, making it easy for California homeowners to find a textile that matches their decor and transform it into an eye-catching window fashion.

Integrate with Automation

It's not just the style of your new living room shades that can be integrated into your household; you can also work their operation into your daily routine. PowerView® Automation with your living room window shades allows you to integrate into home assistant or smart home programming for seamless synchronization to existing household schedules, or shade control can be automated through the PowerView® Automation app.
