11. Screens. Lacy screens have been used for centuries in hot desert climates to create cool, sun-dappled interiors. The same approach is used to great effect in this dressing room and closet. The Delia solar shade filters the light and provides privacy.

4. Drywall ReturnsIf the goal is to call attention to the opening itself or the window frame, choosing a drywall return is a no-hassle way to trim your window. This can save on finish carpentry and preserves the planar wall aesthetic without the need for reveal trims. This process is used often in commercial construction; it entails wrapping or returning the Sheetrock at the window perimeter back to the window frame. This takes the traditional place of the wood extension jamb and provides a clean, no-frills look.
