2024 Window Treatment Trends to Transform your Space - The Yardstick

2024 Window Treatment Trends to Transform your Space

Since the 1960s, The Yardstick has been selling and installing modern window treatments. We’ve seen styles and trends come and go and come again. Check out the top three window trends we’re seeing for 2024:

  • Layering
  • Bold Colors & Patterns
  • Motorizations & Automation.

These high-fashion trends may not work for everyone, but they have been hot topics for some time to come. Don’t miss out!

Curtain Layering

This style is making a comeback as one of the hottest trends for 2024. Pairing sheer curtains with opaque drapes or blinds allows for versatile light control and adds a touch of elegance to formal living rooms and dining areas. This trend not only enhances aesthetics but also provides practical benefits like improved insulation and light management.

Bold Colors and Patterns

2024 is all about making a statement with vibrant colors and dynamic patterns. Think deep blues, lively greens, and energetic geometric designs. These bold treatments can transform your windows into focal points, adding a burst of personality and energy to minimalist or monochrome spaces.

Smart and Motorized Shades

As we continue to automate home functions like lighting and temperature control, we want our blinds to be part of that seamless, smart home experience too. Motorized shades allow you to change the entire atmosphere of your space with just a click of a button. These smart solutions are ideal for modern homes and are especially useful for hard-to-reach windows.

Practical Tips to Identify your Aesthetic and Functional Needs:

  1. Assess Your Space: Consider the room’s function, the amount of natural light, and your personal style before choosing a trend.
  2. Start Small: If unsure about a bold trend, start with a smaller window or a less frequented room.
  3. Mix and Match: Don’t be afraid to combine different trends. For example, natural materials can complement bold colors beautifully.
  4. Functionality is Key: Remember that window treatments are not just decorative; consider privacy, light control, and maintenance when making your choice.
  5. Consult Professionals: When in doubt, seek advice from design professionals to tailor solutions to your specific needs and preferences.

What Our Customers are Saying

  I had an excellent experience with The Yardstick from start to finish, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the final result. I had always heard good things about The Yardstick, so I decided to call them when I needed new draperies in my formal dining room. Jack, the owner, promptly returned my initial phone call, and we scheduled an in-home consultation. Jack has an amazing artistic eye, and he provided excellent counsel on fabric and hardware selection, as well as the best way to configure the room. I usually agonize over such decisions, but thanks to Jack’s very creative and helpful advice — plus the countless high-quality fabric options to choose from — I actually made all the decisions in the first visit (with no second-guessing myself afterwards!)

The custom installation was done by Mark and Sean, who were fantastic as well. They were highly meticulous, knowledgeable, and professional — and as an added plus, they each have a great sense of humor. They worked hard to ensure that the curtain installation was picture-perfect (and also left the room in pristine condition at the end of the day).

And last but certainly not least, the craftsmanship on the finished draperies, sheers, and hardware was superb! Everything was flawless and beautiful.

I am so happy I chose The Yardstick for this big project, and I’ll be calling them for the other window covering projects on my list. Highly recommended!
