Shutters are the premium answer - so the solution question is where they're worth it. Front-of-house rooms, forever homes, and rooms that take the hardest sun: yes. Every window in the house: usually not, and we'll tell you.
Shutters where they show and where they'll stay: the front elevation, the formal rooms, the primary. Cells and rollers in the bedrooms and bonus spaces. The house looks finished from the street and the budget stays sane.
Steamy bathrooms (composite shutters laugh at daily shower steam), west-facing rooms that take the brunt of the desert sun, French doors, deep-set frames, and rooms where every other treatment has been broken by kids or dogs. Shutters are the durability endgame.
