I think the render is a little clinical which is not giving a very true impression of the property and how the door he's suggesting will look.. that's one thing.. but saying that I still don't think it would look great. As mentioned above, when specifying for my clients, the first thing is budget and I also take into consideration the design inside.. after all this is the 'front', the 'entrance', the 'greeting' to your home. I would take into consideration how much light you need in the space, the colour you will have in the entrance and of course the overall style you want to achieve. Is it just that the white and brown don't seem to compliment each other.. or do you feel that door looks dated? What styles of doors do you like? - there's lots of inspiration on Houzz to get you started.

Across all of our work in the London area we work alongside some spectacular names in interior design and we recently had the pleasure of heading up to Shepherd’s Bush to install a set of window shutters in a bedroom as part of a project with the talented people at Turner Pocock. And with arched windows as our fresh new challenge we welcomed the opportunity. Read all about our work HERE

I think a thin pole should work fine as the cheapest fix. You can fix the brackets as far out as the wall allows it and the other window could take a roman blind. Gorgeous room and gorgeous windows.

Blinds that sit within the frame, below the top arch, would be an option - either Roman blinds or wooden slatted blinds. Or if budget allows then Shutters would look fab!
