What actually matters in a living room

Every Knutsford living room project we quote hinges on the same set of questions:

How it looks from the street closed and open
TV glare from a west-facing window
Handling a bay window without visible gaps
Matching an existing paint or wood tone

Painted hardwood in the majority of specification — the grain reads properly in daylight where MDF can look plastic.

What we usually specify

Across Knutsford living rooms we mostly fit:

Full-height in a splay or square bay
Tier-on-tier on tall Victorian sashes
Café-style on a Georgian sash

76mm or 89mm louvres balance privacy and view — 63mm looks fussy on a large living-room window.

Match the paint code to the skirting, not the wall — the shutter reads as joinery, not a window treatment.

Bay window shutters need mitred posts, not butt-joined — we template on survey day.

Property-fit proof

A specification shaped by Georgian townhouse openings

We start with the opening, not a stock package. In Knutsford, that means accounting for Georgian townhouse, Edwardian villa, Arts & Crafts home and selecting frames, panel widths and materials around those constraints.
