Do Shutters Work as Coastal Window Treatments?

Harmony Blinds and Shutters • May 9, 2024

The quintessential beach house inspires coastal window treatments. Think bare feet, sand, sunshine, blue skies, and crisp sea air. Shutters are one fantastic option for a coastal window treatment because you can throw them open and enjoy the sun. But they’re not your only option. At Harmony Blinds and Shutters in San Diego, California, we can help you find the ultimate coastal window treatments for your home, whether shutters or something else.

Coastal Window Treatments: Shutters and Sunshine

Using shutters as coastal window treatments is an excellent option. The extensive, classic, permanent window treatments are stunning and sure to catch the eye of all your visitors. You can twist the louvers to get natural light and a great view of the outdoors. You can also close them for privacy, glare reduction, less sound absorption, or protection during a storm. Throw them open on a breezy, sunny day and enjoy the salty sea air.

At Harmony Blinds and Shutters, we carry wood, faux wood, and vinyl interior shutters.

  • Wood shutters add warmth, character, and charm.
  • Faux wood shutters look like natural wood but are more durable and water-resistant.
  • Vinyl interior shutters highly resist heat, moisture, and sunshine, and they won’t fade, bow, bend, break, or yellow.

Coastal Window Treatments: All Things Natural

While shutters are an excellent choice, they’re not the only option for your windows. One characteristic of the coastal style is natural elements, including natural fibers used to make rugs, furniture, and even decorative items. One way to incorporate these kinds of natural elements is by using woven wood shades as a coastal window treatment. These are hand-woven treatments that are made from natural fibers found all over the world. The weavers use specific methods to keep them from bowing, bending, breaking, and fraying, so you can enjoy long-lasting and beautiful one-of-a-kind window treatments that add a fresh, natural element. Some of the fibers include:

  • Bamboo
  • Rattan
  • Paprus
  • Various grasses
  • Jutes

Coastal Window Treatments: Light and Breezy

Custom drapery could be the perfect fit for your coastal window treatments if you love the look of wide-open windows and breezy curtains blowing in the breeze. This is also an excellent way to pull in color if you have a primarily neutral color scheme, but you don’t have to! Custom draperies can go perfectly complement shutters or other window treatments. You also have your choice of:

  • Colors: The blues and greens of the sea or something neutral
  • Fabrics: The texture, weight, and opacity of the material
  • Length: Floor length, window length, or something that extends out past the windows and down for extra drama
