April 2025 Design Trends

As we welcome spring in full bloom, April brings a refreshing blend of timeless aesthetics and cutting-edge comfort. This month, we're seeing a shift toward design that feels both classic and effortless—with subtle nods to nostalgia and smart innovations that simplify everyday living. Let’s take a closer look at the top trends we’re loving right now:

1. East Coast Style

Elegant, coastal, and polished—East Coast Style is making waves well beyond the shoreline. Think crisp white paneling, navy and neutral palettes, antique brass hardware, and interiors that blend traditional roots with fresh sophistication. This look is all about layering refined textures—linen upholstery, classic wood tones, and tailored window treatments like Roman shades or light-filtering drapery that evoke that timeless Nantucket charm.

Pro Tip: Custom window treatments are a must for nailing the upscale, tailored feel of East Coast interiors. Layering shades with drapery helps you control light while adding architectural interest to tall windows and French doors.

2. Soft and Dreamy Hues

April’s color palette is all about gentle elegance. From whispery blues and petal pinks to earthy creams and clay-infused neutrals, soft hues are taking over in both paint and textiles. These calming colors create a serene foundation for spaces that feel like a breath of fresh air—perfect for spring resets or bedroom sanctuaries.

Designer Favorite: Motorized roller shades in sheer or light-filtering fabrics are the ideal complement to these ethereal tones, letting in natural light while maintaining a soft, ambient glow throughout your space.

3. Home Automation

Convenience is the new luxury, and home automation is continuing to revolutionize interior design. From smart thermostats and lighting to fully automated window treatments, tech-enhanced living is becoming an essential element of modern home upgrades. Whether you’re syncing your shades with the sunrise or controlling your drapery with voice commands, automation is no longer a futuristic dream—it’s here, and it’s beautiful.

At Park City Blind and Design, we specialize in motorized window treatments that offer privacy, energy savings, and complete control—without compromising on aesthetics.

Whether you're drawn to the timeless charm of coastal interiors, the soft glow of spring pastels, or the seamless ease of automation, April’s design trends are all about bringing comfort and sophistication into everyday life.

When Window Treatments Should Be Planned in a Custom Build

By Sammie Bailey • March 9, 2026

In a custom home, the best results come from thoughtful planning. The more details that are considered early in the build, the more seamless the final space feels. Window treatments are one of those details that often get pushed to the end of the project. By the time they’re discussed, drywall is up, electrical is finished, and architectural opportunities have already passed. However, when window treatments are considered during the design and construction phases, builders and designers gain far more flexibility—and the finished result integrates much more naturally with the home. Here are three elements that benefit most from early planning.

Why Motorized Shades Are Now the Standard in High-End Homes

By Sammie Bailey • March 3, 2026

In today’s well-designed homes, motorized shades are no longer considered an upgrade. They are expected. Across Park City, Northern Utah, and St. George, we’re seeing a consistent shift in how window treatments are planned and specified. In homes valued at $1.5M and above, automation is no longer an afterthought — it’s part of the architectural conversation from the outset. As residential design continues to evolve, so do expectations surrounding comfort, performance, and integration. Motorized window treatments now sit at the intersection of all three.
