Are these Roman blinds? And are they motorised?

The windows are high so it looks like they could be motorized but sidewinders would work also.

Yes, it was me who suggested the Metropole. It is a high end product which I felt would sit well with the space. Curtain wise it doesn’t have to be linen sheers, lined pinch pleat curtains would look equally as good in a pair stack rather than 4. There is space to bring the pole to the edges of the bay so as not to overlap the side windows too much And vine eyes could be used to anchor the return of the last pleat to the wall so you don’t have to look down the back of the curtain. Another option would be to use a less expensive bendable track and a pelmet. I personally would not use roman blinds because extension brackets would have to be used to clear the architrave so a Pelmet would have to be used in that instance too so you didn’t look at the back of the blind. Of course it all comes down to personal preference at the end of the day, as well as budget.

Love gothic architecture. How about a wrought iron rail above with just one curtain pushed to one side rather like the pics below. Not necessarily the fabric illustrated, but a lush, heavy fabric like velvet or tapestry would go beautifully, depending on your decor of course.

Hi @Emma Lamb. I'm super up for a reconfiguration, but don't really know what else to try. I've had various arrangements in the past and this is the best yet. In an ideal world, we wouldn't have the furniture all against the walls, but we do yoga in here so we need the space. The two chairs are meant to angle in a little more than they were when I took the picture (after the Christmas mess!), but the one closest to the kitchen really just sits awkwardly blocking access to the kitchen and occasionally hiding the fish tank :( If you have any suggestions of things to move around, I'd be really up for hearing them. I know I want to keep the table where it is as I like to sit in the window while I'm working, the sofa and speakers are also pretty stuck in place due to listening angles, but the chairs, dresser, side tables, storage unit and small table holding the fish tank can all move. I'm planning to remove the fish tank table from the mix when the cabinet arrives, but they are similar in size so I could plan around either just now. I think I will go with Roman blinds and now just debating whether to get them made up or do them myself. The middle window will need more than one width so it will be a lot of matching, but I'm going to speak to the fabric store and see how I feel. So excited to get them in situ!!

Can you confirm whether the room is a kitchen, lounge, bedroom...? This will have a bearing on what type of window dressing you choose. To add warmth, colour and texture to a room then fabric is always a lovely option, providing the room doesn’t get steamy or damp. As curtains aren’t an option for you, consider roman blinds. These can be set within your window recess which takes up no wall space at all and will still allow lots of light into the room as well as having blackout lining options, to keep the light out when needed. Another option worth considering are plantation shutters, as these again are recessed into the window, allowing plenty of light in as well as providing privacy. I hope that helps.
