View, no view…
I am not big on window treatments and as a matter of fact I don’t have a single curtain or window covering in my home. If it were not for the permanent blinds that are on every building here in Tel Aviv, my apartment would be an open fish tank for all to see! I came across a window treatment that I think has potential, but I can’t figure out if they slide side to side or are stationary.
Orgad a company based here in Israel, is a supplier of window treatments. I found these on their website and thought they were worth a share.
The panels here are semi-sheer and let in some light, I like this quality in a window treatment but if they don’t slide away from the window or roll up like a shade does then I think these are limited. I know that some views are not ideal, but there is something to be said for having access to a natural light source.
I like the way these add color to the room. Most window treatments are beige or white and blend into the decor unnoticed. You have to have guts to add colored window treatments to a room, if you ask me not enough people do.
Here are some white panels that double as room dividers, not a bad way to create another space but I feel sorry for the room in front that is loosing it’s light source. I hate the fabric here and find the “all white” interior disturbing, I guess that blue chair in the background is holding up the color end of the deal here…
On a positive note, I can see using this type of treatment in an open doorway or an exposed pantry as an economical solution to an unsightly situation.
