How to Cover a Corner Window

Corner windows are charming, but they create spaces for an abundance of natural light to enter your home. Because of their positioning, they can make it challenging to cover. Because these windows meet at an angle, standard off-the-shelf window fashions often fall short when it comes to light control, privacy, and overall appearance. Corner window coverings allow each side of the corner to function independently while still feeling visually connected.

For homeowners searching for window treatments near Austin, TX, selecting the right product is key to maintaining both comfort and design consistency in spaces with corner windows.

Here are some of our favorite options for covering corner windows in your Austin home.

Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades

Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades are a practical solution for covering a corner window in style, especially in rooms where temperature control matters. Their unique interior cell-shaped construction traps air to create a buffer between your home's interior and exterior for warmer winters and cooler summers.

These elegant cellular shades are custom fitted to each side of a corner window, allowing smooth operation without interference at the angle. With options that span light-filtering to blackout opacities, they are a great choice for providing enhanced light control and privacy.

Graber® Roman Shades

For homeowners who want to soften the look of a corner window, Graber® Roman Shades offer a refined option that combines elegance with visually interesting structure. Roman shades enhance your home's privacy while reducing glare from damaging UV rays, all while offering flexibility to choose from multiple pleat options and a range of fabric choices. When installed on adjacent walls, each shade operates independently but contributes to a cohesive design across the corner.

Graber® Roman Shades work particularly well in dining areas, living rooms, bedrooms, and other spaces where design impact is just as important as function. Roman shades bring warmth and depth to corner windows without overwhelming the space.

Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Sheer Shades

If preserving natural light is a priority, Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Sheer Shades are an excellent option for corner windows. These shades feature adjustable fabric vanes suspended between sheer panels that gently filter and diffuse incoming light for a soft glow.

Silhouette® Sheer Shades are ideal for corner windows in open-concept spaces where harsh glare needs to be controlled without blocking views entirely. Their soft, elegant appearance complements modern and transitional interiors, and their ability to fine-tune light makes them a favorite for rooms that receive strong sun exposure throughout the day.

Control your corner windows with the power of smart technology. Each option we've highlighted here is also available as a motorized option, which allows you to control your windows throughout the day with the tap of a finger in the custom smartphone app. Or, control your corner window coverings with your voice thanks to Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri compatibility.
