Traditional Bedrooms For Every Decorating Taste

Bedroom Designed to Touch the Sky

Every room—especially bedrooms, it seems—faces design challenges. In this richly appointed master bedroom, the biggest obstacle to a sophisticated traditional design heavy on the glam were unfortunately small windows. To overcome the windows’ weak proportions, designer Karen Miller ingeniously crafted a stairstep valance  that fools the eye into thinking the window is taller than it really is. She also mounted the valance directly to the ceiling to increase the heightening effect.

Tip: In a low- or standard-ceiling bedroom, mount window treatments from the ceiling to increase the perception of vertical space.
