What Are Plantation Shutters?
Classic, timeless, and adored by homeowners, shutters are a highly coveted window treatment. Whether you place them in one room or throughout your entire home, these window treatments instantly elevate a space with their welcoming charm. Of course, there's more to this timeless window treatment than its signature slats.

If you're considering investing in indoor shutters, our team at Creative Window Designs is here to help you learn more about these window treatments—inside and out. To help you decide if shutters are a good fit for your home, we dive into what these window treatments are, their benefits, and your options when you shop with us at.
Defining Plantation Shutters
So, what exactly are these window treatments? We usually refer to this style of shutter as an interior shutter or indoor shutter. More modern than traditional shutters, these modern shutters have a wider slat size over 2” and feature adjustable louvers that provide exceptional light control and privacy.
Typically, modern indoor shutters are made from wood, faux wood, or vinyl material and can be customized to fit a variety of window shapes. Available in beautiful colors that range from neutral hues to rich tones, interior shutters add elegance and charm to any space.
Benefits of Custom Shutters
Unlike getting shutters from a big box store, custom shutters elevate your home like no other. Our Hunter Douglas indoor shutters complement your interior design goals with custom cuts for your unique windows (including unique shapes like angles, arches, and more), and they come in your choice of hundreds of colors or beautiful stains.
Custom shutters are also available with several operation styles and slat sizes to help you achieve your lighting and privacy goals. Want to block more light and enjoy unparalleled privacy? Smaller slats are the way to go. Want to let in lots of light and enjoy your views? Larger slats are here to deliver. These personalized touches promise gorgeous craftsmanship, longevity, and effortless operation for years to come.
