I still think blinds at the bay window would look better, you can use a thick fabric and have a thick lining put in as well. I'm not so sure that hanging curtains from the crown detail would look right above the door.... I'd be more inclined to go from the picture rail height..... just personal opinion! Also, what colour are you thinking of doing the walls and are the window coverings likely to be heavy patterned or plainer textured fabric? Just thinking that if the walls were say a beige then a darker shade for the window coverings with a slight pattern or texture it would be less obvious that the windows were different heights, your eye wouldn't be drawn to it so much as a heavy pattern.

Hi Lauren! I worked on a project with a similar situation! The windows were in a spare bedroom, so ideally they really did need to be covered at night time, however only when people were staying over. We had venetian blinds made for the standard rectangular window, then for the 2 angled windows, we produced a 'shield'. Basically, we got our joiner to make two shields which were templated to the same shape as the window reveals, with a handle in the centre, which then hooked on to the window. So they could be taken up and down as you wish. They were produced in oak and finished the same colour as the rest of the joinery and blinds, with a handle in pewter to match the rest of the ironmongery in the house. Unfortunately I don't have ay photos of the shields, but you can see the window, and the hooks that the shield mounts on to! We found this to be the most simple, unfussy option, and you are still able to see the windows in their full glory. The shields are kept in the cupboard when not being used. I hope this helps!

When it comes to incorporating sash windows into a modern house build, it can work quite well and add a touch of elegance and charm. Sash windows can complement various architectural styles, including both traditional Georgian designs and more contemporary looks. To ensure the desired outcome, it's essential to consider other design elements alongside the choice of sash windows. Factors such as the overall architectural design, materials used, and the surrounding aesthetics can all contribute to achieving the desired balance between modern and traditional styles. By carefully selecting other elements like the exterior cladding, roof design, and landscaping, you can create a cohesive and harmonious look. Ultimately, the decision to use sash windows in your modern house build should align with your personal preferences and the overall aesthetic you wish to achieve. Consulting with an architect or design professional can provide valuable insights and help you create a design that seamlessly integrates sash windows while maintaining the desired modern or traditional style.

This is an excellent way to bring new life and better performance into existing windows and the original product remains the best.
