The kitchen is the Grand Central Station of your home! Create a kitchen that works for your busy family with the help of kitchen window treatments. Window coverings help create a comfortable atmosphere by reducing glare, regulating temperatures, and adding privacy for the whole family. California Window Fashions can show you how to improve your kitchen by simply adding the right window coverings.
Why Kitchen Window Coverings Matter
Times have changed, but the traditional kitchen layout remains the same—kitchen sink, window, and all. Today, however, we face a different challenge: fitting our kitchen windows with the right coverings. If you are looking for heat and glare control over the sink and around the kitchen, moisture and grease resistance, and privacy, choosing the right window coverings matters. Privacy solutions also help block unnecessary light, which is especially important when selecting shades that meet all these needs while remaining easy to adjust as needed.
By selecting the best kitchen window coverings for your home, we can help resolve common window issues like glare, privacy, and ease of function. So go ahead—gaze out that window all morning long, or until the dishwasher finishes its cycle.
Best Window Coverings for Kitchens
We can all agree—the kitchen is the heart of the home, and that means windows and doors often share the same space. How do you maintain the core style elements of your kitchen while addressing the varied needs of both doors and windows? Rather than matching, consider coordinating your window coverings.
Roller Shades
Roller shades in kitchens offer an easy, modern way to cover windows while enhancing light control. With many fabrics and styles to choose from, these shades pair beautifully with any decor, paint color, or accessory.
From room-darkening shades to sheers, there is protection at the window no matter which direction your kitchen faces. UV protection is just as important as aesthetics, and the low-profile design allows the shade to roll away and “disappear” for a clean, streamlined look.
Cellular and Honeycomb Shades
We think you’ll cheer for these beautiful Applause® Honeycomb Shades. Cellular shades trap air at the window, helping insulate the kitchen and the rest of your home from heat. Create the right atmosphere with this collection, which prioritizes UV protection and offers highly functional options such as room-darkening. Enjoy a top-down approach to your windows with a shade that saves energy and looks gorgeous.
Roman Shades
Find the right shades for your custom windows that complement your home decor. Roman shades offer it all—from specialty-crafted materials to light control and energy efficiency. With multiple styles, stacking or rolling options, and beautiful fabrics, you can style your kitchen your way.
Woven Wood Shades
Get ready for a beautifully crafted shade made from natural fibers, perfect for kitchens that need improved energy efficiency and light control. Woven wood shades offer optional liners for added light control, a variety of colors and weave options, and are crafted from bamboo, grasses, and wood for a truly unique look.
Shutters
With a variety of timeless features, plantation shutters are ready to shine in your kitchen. Offering sophisticated elegance, these finely crafted shutters provide light control and energy efficiency in classic designs. Choose from real hardwood, composite wood, and vinyl shutters to create a kitchen that looks and feels thoughtfully designed.
Light Control & Privacy Solutions for Kitchens
Kitchens are the heart and hub of the home, making light control and privacy essential for enjoying the space. In east-facing or west-facing kitchens, it’s especially important to manage sunlight and UV rays with the right shades. From a small breakfast nook to a large main kitchen area, there are many shapes and styles available that allow you to control light while keeping your home protected and beautiful.
Dinner Time
At certain times of day, sun glare can make sitting at the kitchen table uncomfortable. Don’t change your dinner schedule—you’re in control! Adding the right kitchen window coverings helps protect your family from glare and discomfort. Cellular Roller Shades are just one of the many options we offer to filter light, reduce glare, and add privacy in the kitchen.
Motorized & Cordless Options for Kitchens
Cordless and motorized kitchen shades and blinds are excellent choices for hands-free operation. They are child-safe and highly convenient, whether you choose motorized shades or integration with PowerView® technology. Your kitchen’s light control and privacy can be tailored to meet your needs day or night, with many styles and custom sizes available to achieve the aesthetic you desire.
Kitchen Window Covering Styles
When styling your kitchen, consider how you want everything to come together. Do you envision a modern kitchen with motorized blinds or shades? For a farmhouse look, you may prefer drapery layered with shades or sheers, choosing fabrics and designs that keep the space farmhouse chic. If you love a vintage aesthetic, consider colors and patterns that create a retro-chic style.
Going for a black-trim, modern look? Pair black window frames with white shades and coordinating accessories to complete the design.
Kitchen Clean Ups & Window Coverings
No matter how you look at it, the kitchen is the hardest-working room in the home. Beyond meal preparation and dining, it’s also a high-traffic area that can get messy. Kitchen window treatments need to stand up to these conditions. A window covering expert can help you choose the right option for the job—such as wood shutters that can be wiped clean or adjustable shades that lift up and out of the way.
