3 Ideas for Designing a Sunroom

For most homeowners, the sunroom is the ideal connection between indoors and outdoors, where they can relax, read a book, or do some work. By enhancing its purpose, you can create a stunning and functional nature-inspired oasis.

At The Blind King near Providence, Rhode Island, we can help you select spectacular sunroom window treatments that will allow you to enjoy that natural light and your view.

1. Enhance the Natural Light

Sunlight boosts your mood, improves sleep, and provides much-needed Vitamin D. For sunrooms, you can make the most of the natural light with white paint. White makes the room seem bigger, brighter, and airier. You can also control the light with window treatments. Even if you arrange your sunroom to maximize natural light, sometimes the glare or direct sunlight can become overpowering.

We carry several sunroom window treatment options, like:

• Sunroom shades, like Designer Solar Shades, reduce glare and block UV rays because of their mesh-like fabric. However, based on one of the five opacities you choose, like sunglasses, you can still see through them.
• Blinds have tilting slats to balance light, privacy, and your view throughout the day. The moisture-resistant Modern Precious Metals® Aluminum Blinds are great for humid spaces like sunrooms.
• Sheer Shades optimize natural light by filtering it so you can decide how much you want. You also get protection from UV rays and reduce glare.
• Drapery adds color, drama, and elegance to your sunroom. Custom drapery pairs well with other window treatments, like blinds and shades.

2. Incorporate Greenery

Adding greenery like flowers and houseplants to your sunroom, even fake ones, adds to the atmosphere, pulls in natural color, and helps facilitate a relaxing, inviting space. Most plants thrive in places with lots of sun. Many plants improve air quality, reduce stress, and make you feel more creative, productive, and focused.

Some plants to consider for your sunroom include:

• Hibiscus.
• Orchids.
• Aloe Vera.
• Jade Plant.
• Snake Plant.

3. Select Textured Furniture

Incorporating texture into your space adds richness and depth that improves the aesthetic. Outdoor furniture and rugs are good ideas for your sunroom because it's often only partially weatherproofed and can get humid. Consider textured pieces made from bamboo, jute, or wicker. These materials can withstand weather conditions, and the natural colors and fibers enhance the space’s overall feel.
