What popular window shape creates the biggest interior design headache for most home owners?

This classic style has been with us for centuries and can be found in architecture around the world.   You guessed it.  Arches and Eyebrows and its many variations can be found everywhere today.  I always find it interesting when this style is incorporated into a remodeling project where it does not enhance the design or style of the home from the outside. Or where the ceiling height inside is too low to set the windows at a height the will enhance the interior of a room or rooms. This does create a interior design dilemma and great opportunities for the assistance of an Interior Design Professional.

JCP Designer to the rescue.

Consider this -

When choosing to include these beautiful specialty windows in your new home design or your remodeling project the finished project can sometimes be disappointing.  Building materials today are imperfect and make creating a surface for a nice finish hard to do. Warped and twisted studs are so common. I recently was on a consultation for window coverings in a beautiful expensive new home and had to point out this problem with a lot of the arched windows in her newly constructed home.

Consider this –

When in the design stages of new construction whether it is new home or remodeling or room additions include a consultation with an interior design professional like JCP Designer to help you avoid costly mistakes and unnecessary cost overruns. Our training and experience can help reduce the stress of overwhelm with the information overload of any building or remodeling project.

Remember JCP Designer when you are thinking about building or remodeling.
