Bay Windows vs. Picture Windows

Bay windows and picture windows are stunning window designs that enhance the architectural structure of your home. They let in lots of light and can provide a stunning view. The right window treatments enhance your home’s aesthetic while providing privacy and security. At Blinds and Shutters of All Kinds near Newhall, California, we can help you find treatments for your bay or picture windows. We carry several types of Hunter Douglas blinds, shades, and shutters that could fit well.

Bay Windows vs Picture Windows: What Are the Differences?

A bay window is a group of three windows that extend beyond the walls of a building, adding space and forming a small bay-like shape in the room. Typically, the two side windows are angled and operable, while the center window is larger and inoperable.

Picture windows are large, stationary windows that let in light and frame the view. Typically, the center window in a bay window is a picture window, but not always.

Bay Window Treatments

Bay window treatments are designed so each window operates individually, providing outstanding light control. They also add style and elegance to your home. Your interior design style, the room your bay window is in, and how you want to use that space could all determine the best window treatments. For bay window treatments, we recommend:

• Shutters are timeless window treatments that add effortless elegance to your home and can enhance the visual of your bay windows. These are a great option for a view or any room where you want to make an impact.
• EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds are sturdy, efficient, and maximize light control and privacy. They provide an excellent backdrop and a more relaxed aesthetic.
• For improved energy efficiency, Duette® Cellular Shades are a great option. The modern style is available in over 100 fabric colors and materials combinations in several opacities.

Picture Window Treatments

Large picture windows let you enjoy the view and pull in beautiful natural light. The right window treatments enhance the view without sacrificing privacy, block glare, and reduce UV rays. You can also use the treatments to frame your window further. Some picture window treatments we recommend include:

• Silhouette® Sheer Shades, which use two layers of sheer fabric with s-shaped fabric slats between them that twist to provide a fabulous view, outstanding privacy, and constant protection from UV rays.
• Provenance® Woven Wood Shades use natural fibers to create an elegant and inviting light-filtering effect.
• Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds use long fabric panels that glide across the tops of your windows to make a statement and frame the view.
