A Window Treatment for Windows Fans

A Window Treatment for Windows Fans
If you're old enough to remember Microsoft's Windows 3.1, which was a massive improvement in the PC interface in its day but now looks rather quaint, you'll get a kick out of this concept window treatment from geek artist John Nouanesing. Called Fenetres 3.1 (fenetre means "window" in French), it's a set of small curtains that add title bars to the individual windows, plus a window blind painted to look like a blue screen of death, which can be deployed by pressing down on a scroll button mounted to the right of the window. It's a clever visual tweak to a boring window, to say the least, though sadly, like Nouanesing, it doesn't look like we'll ever see it available for purchase. [Source: Apartment Therapy Unplugged]
