A popular style choice for many homeowners, modern design features clean lines, straight edges, and a neutral or natural color scheme. While many shoppers tend to focus on larger pieces such as sofas, armchairs, or coffee tables, smaller room accents like window treatments can make just as big of an impact on a room’s design and feel.

At Interior Views, our team of design professionals has years of experience decorating homes in New Jersey. A few of our favorite window treatments for modern layouts include modern window shades, shutters, and blinds that feature lines and color palettes to complement your look.

What is Modern Design?

Simply put, modern design revolves around the idea of a clean and uncluttered space. Furniture and décor typically have straight horizontal and vertical edges and incorporate natural materials like wood, metal, and natural fibers. Modern design is sometimes referred to as contemporary style, though furniture and accent pieces like contemporary window treatments will typically include features such as bold colors, curved lines, and posh metals.

3 Modern Window Treatment Ideas

1. Window Shades

Hunter Douglas offers many gorgeous modern window shades for living rooms, dens, and kitchens, but one of our favorite modern shades is the Designer Roller Shades. These roller shades feature clean lines and come in a variety of neutral colors to complement your existing décor.

The streamlined design and color choices of these Designer Roller Shades allow them to complement a range of different modern aesthetics, such as spaces that promote Scandinavian or Mid-Century Modern style. When decorating a layout that features a Mid-Century modern vibe, consider pairing a dark yellow Hunter Douglas window shade with a wooden bedframe and end table that features straight lines and turned wooden legs to get a cool, retro feel.

We love the Parkland® Wood Blinds from Hunter Douglas. Featuring 100% real wood, these interior blinds pair well with other natural, modern elements in your room, such as a modern wood coffee table or a streamlined armchair with natural wood legs. Shoppers may also choose from a range of neutral or earth-tone hues to get the ideal shade for their space.

Pairing these Hunter Douglas blinds with the rest of your modern furniture and décor is easy. For instance, you can create a seating area in your living room by pairing a set of Parkland® Wood Blinds with a sleek couch featuring clean edges and wooden legs. The wood blinds complement the natural materials of the sofa legs while allowing you to control how much light enters your space.

2. Window Shutters

If you prefer the appeal of shutters, Hunter Douglas has you covered. While there are several choices to think about, the NewStyle® Composite Shutters can offer you the look of real wood with the added strength of manmade materials. These durable interior shutters feature Truemill® dovetail construction, so you can get years of use, while the clean, crisp lines and neutral colors allow these shutters to fit into nearly any modern home effortlessly.
