How to Coordinate Window Treatments and Wallpaper

Rachel Brosky Interiors • March 27, 2025

Coordinating the décor in a room makes it look and feel more welcoming. Kicking back and relaxing is easier in a visually appealing space. One way to create this type of space is to use window treatments and wallpaper that complement each other, and the Rachel Brosky Interiors design team can teach you how to do just that.

Pair Trendy Wallpaper with Hunter Douglas Shades

There are several options when choosing window treatments and wallpaper. The most straightforward is to choose a neutral hue for one element and a bold color or print for the other. Neutral doesn’t have to be boring.

Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades are available in several versatile hues, and their folds create visual interest. The same is true for the light filtering and aesthetically pleasing sheer shades. The delicate structure of Silhouette® Sheer Shades is an exquisite pairing for quality wallpaper with soft colors or small prints, like polka dots or florals.

Maximize Texture

Texture can bring any decorative element to life. If you want to keep your window treatments simple without looking drab, consider Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shade s or Provenance® Woven Wood Shades. They both feature eye-catching textures without overpowering the surrounding décor and diffuse sunlight into a welcoming glow.

You can also choose textured wallpaper, like grasscloth, to add visual weight to a space without vivid colors or patterns.

Create a Sleek Aesthetic with Roller Shades

Hunter Douglas Designer Roller Shades make for an excellent accent for homeowners who prefer a slim profile and minimalist style. Roller shades are available in over 370 colors and prints, so yours can blend in or stand out.

Another possibility is to choose a wallpaper and Hunter Douglas shade with a print if you ensure the colors are complementary and pair a large print with a smaller one. Quality wallpaper with metallic accents looks amazing with solid color shades that create contrast. If versatility is a priority, we encourage you to choose the dual roller design to enjoy two shade fabrics on the same window.

Oversized Window Options

Large windows and sliding glass doors are natural statement-makers, so it’s crucial to strike a balance between their window treatments and wallpaper. Luminette® Sheer Panels bring luxury to a space, while Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds introduce a more contemporary aesthetic.

We recommend Luminette® Sheer Panels for rooms with classic wallpaper, such as stripes or damask patterns. Consider Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds in rooms with striking wallpaper, such as animal prints or geometric shapes.
