Major Windows: When planning the private area conŽsider especially the views from the major windows, and let these include the kitchen window, near which the woman of the house is likely to spend some time.
LIGHTING: "The big challenges people run into are windows and natural light," says Remignanti. "It's the enemy of a well-designed media room." He suggests keeping windows to the left or right of the screen to avoid reflection or direct light.See Also Doors And Windows Are Built:It is essential for decorators to understand the structure and design of the interior architectural features that are covered by the word atrim." This term is applied most commonly to the woodwork in a room, but it may also refer to the ornamental details in formally designed interiors made of stone, marble, or other materials. The stone detail used for this purpose is usually similar to that of wood. In rooms of period influences, the tendency is to design the detail of the trim upon the customary classical architectural forms. In rooms that have plywood, synthetic, or built-in cabinet walls, the standard trim is often omitted as unnecessary, and the same is true when doors and windows are built with metal frames. It is then primarily in rooms based upon historical types where trim is used, and the term, in general, covers the following features:
Door and window trim Baseboards, picture moldings, and chair rails
Doors and windows Cornices and coves
Mantels
Built-in cabinets
Dadoes, wainscots, and panelling
Flooring

On The Other Hand See Show Windows Of Recovery:The city itself, as against the port, has been called one of Europe's most spectacular show windows of recovery, partly because of the exceptionally tragic nature of its hurts. More than $20,000,000 worth of new construction is under way at this writing and the activity will continue for years.
Rome, there are plenty of offerings also that have masculine appeal, such as Borsalino hats and fine ties. (Borsalino hats are made for women too.)
In Florence, the feminine visitor goes slightly feverish over the lovely things seen in the show windows of Via Tornabuoni, Via de'Cerretani and Via de'Fossi, and in the tiny shops lining the Ponte Vecchio. In Perugia, she will admire the angora sweaters in the windows of Corso Vannucci.
