Our Favorite Window Coverings for Arched Windows

The way that light works in your home is especially noticeable when you have arched windows that get considerable sunlight.

Our design team at SmartLooks Window & Wall Decor is excited to help our clients find gorgeous window coverings for their hard-to-fit windows, including arched windows. We understand the special considerations of your windows and know what they need to design custom solutions for light control, privacy, and beauty.

Arched windows have an eye-catching design that draws the eye upward to create an open feel. But this specialized shape requires custom window treatments for the best results.

Custom window coverings will follow the arches’ shape and add visual interest, making the window a focal point in the room. Store-bought versions might not fit properly or serve their purposes well. Professional window treatments, measurements, and installation are the way to go.

To fit your arched windows, we trust Hunter Douglas, a luxury window treatment manufacturer with a solid reputation built on quality and innovate designs. Here are some of our top picks for Hunter Douglas window coverings for arched windows:

As the original honeycomb shade, Duette® Cellular Shades are sold in countless sizes, textures, and colors. The energy-efficient design traps air and creates a barrier that insulates your windows, which can save you money on heating and cooling costs.

Here are the specifics:

• Orientation: Horizontal or Vertical
• Widths: Horiz. 4" - 174"   Vert. 12" - 336"
• Heights: Horiz. 6" - 144"   Vert. 24" - 120"
• Pleat Sizes: 3/8", 3/4" or 1 1/4" 

You’ll love how the soft, high-performing fabrics filter light and add privacy to your arches; ask about room-darkening fabrics and different control options like PowerView® Automation.

Roman shades are an elegant, even dramatic choice for arched windows. The time-tested, well-liked design folds neatly when raised, providing a clean look. We order these specifically for arched windows for a snug fit, and you can select fabrics that complement your fall decor with warmth and texture.

• Orientation: Horizontal
• Widths: 12" - 140"
• Heights: 12" - 144"
• Pleat Sizes: 4" full fold or 6" flat fold 

Vignette® Roman Shades by Hunter Douglas come in 25+ colors and fabrics, like natural weaves, silks, and linen.

Silhouette® Sheer Shades filter light and control UV rays beautifully for an almost dreamy quality. They feature a construction with opaque and adjustable soft S-shaped vanes sandwiched between the two sheer layers.

• Orientation: Horizontal
• Widths: 6" to 144"
• Heights: 12" to 136"
• Vane Sizes: 2", 3", or 4"

The sheer panels and opaque obscures the view into your home for daytime privacy and light filtering. To gain more control, just tilt the vanes as desired.

These three excellent choices can undoubtedly make decision-making challenging! To narrow it down, think about your priorities—how much light control and privacy you need, your decor, and budget. If energy efficiency is the priority, we can show you Duette® Cellular Shades.
