A window treatment for tall windows

I often asked this question in my Interior Design profession:

"What is the best window treatment for tall windows?" Sorry for the dark photo!I saw this model home window treatment while on vacation earlier this month. It answers the question nicely.

SOLUTION: Create a simple square LONG padded cornice box to fit the length of the entire window. Then add a punch of color (not a busy pattern) for the vertical fabric panels. I would use the cornice opposite fabric for the small drapery tie backs. Obviously this is a window treatment and isn't meant to be functional. Which is just fine and dandy! If you live in the woods like this house forget the window blinds!
