However you hang it, keep in mind that once the sheer fabric falls in front of the back fabric, the sheer will change color. So, let’s say you have pulled back the thermals, but not the sheers. Where the sheers hang over the stacked back thermals will not be the same color as the rest of the window. It doesn’t sound like a big deal until you see it. It is very obvious.

I assume the windows abut in the corner? This would make it tricky to have romans as they would probably clash when both drawn up. Curtains drawing away from the corners add softness to a dining area, but make them floor length as short curtains look a bit half mast. It is also a good idea to have them wider than the windows to allow more light in when opened and fitted from above the window to elongate the window.

How about a curtain track below the window?

Hi, I am building a new house, there will be large sliding doors the full length of the living area cos the view is great. Unfortunately there’s also a road in front of the house! I can mitigate this a bit by having a raised earth mound with grasses on top, also the glass will be tinted (subtlely) but this won’t be much help in the evening when the lights are on inside. I was wondering about strip lighting the edge of the deck or outside walls to counter (or replace) the inside lighting. I don’t want to burn up too much energy though and we are near a dark sky preserve. what about something hanging from the eaves that’s spot-lit?? Any ideas please! - it’s a simple design with a mono pitch roof lower side to the front. Thanks in anticipation BBL
