Shut out the noise with their sound proofing qualities

Choosing Shutters for Large Windows
When it comes time to design your shutters, you’ll have a few choices to make. The most important of which will be your chosen design.
Full Height or Tier-On-Tier
With full height shutters, you get full window coverage with the panels hinging out as one piece from top to bottom. You can also opt for a mid-rail or hidden split for added slat control on the top and bottom sections.
Like full height, tier-on-tier shutters cover the entirety of the window when closed. However, their top and bottom sections are hinged individually, allowing them to be opened separately. This grants a greater amount of control over light and privacy.
Café Style Shutters
If you haven’t considered café style shutters for large windows, then now is the time. Originally used in cafés and small restaurants to give diners privacy without completely blocking out natural light, there’s a reason they’re so popular with modern buyers. They work wonderfully with both modern minimalist and traditional décor schemes, while their clean lines and straightforward designs bring a touch of simplistic elegance to any space.
