Window Treatments for an Older Home 

Some people can feel daunted when they think about how to cover the windows in their older home. However, at Altra Home Décor serving the greater Phoenix area, we can help people recognize that there are a variety of options they can select from, no matter the era of their home (built in the early or mid-1900s) or its style (from mid-century modern to classic). We carry the full line of Hunter Douglas window fashions, so we can help any owner of an older home to find the right treatment to meet their needs, including the options we describe below. 

Roman Shades 

A classic treatment for a reason, Roman shades bring tailored softness to the window. They are available in a variety of different fold styles, so you can control the look and feel of the space. Vignette® Modern Roman Shades are available in both full and flat folds, which can complement your look, whether it’s a more rounded aesthetic or something more understated. To bring the look of the outdoors in, consider Provenance® Woven Wood Shades, which are made of woven woods, grasses, reeds, and bamboo. Designed to be artisanal, they offer organic style and texture. 

Wood Blinds and Shutters

Another classic, wood blinds and shutters offer a sturdy look and feel. They bring warmth and texture to the room through their natural grain finishes, and they can complement wood flooring or stained wood trim. Parkland® Wood Blinds can add luxury to the space. They are available in more than 50 paints and stains that maintain their luster over time. Everwood® Alternative Wood Blinds can bring the feeling of real wood into a home with the durability of composite materials—they are built to resist fading, yellowing, warping, and bowing. 

Roller Shades

Roller shades offer clean lines and a minimalist spirit that can complement almost any room. They are made in a variety of colors, patterns, and textures and offer smooth, flawless operation. Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades combine the simplicity of a roller shade with the energy efficiency of a cellular shade, offering the possibility of savings on the energy bill. Their gentle curves offer visual interest, and they create softly diffused light throughout the room.
