Live in New England and turn off the heat at night entirely. Our all silk duvet is light, warm and cozy. I enclose it in a flannel duvet cover to keep it clean. The cover becomes the sheeting so no flat sheet is needed. So easy to make the bed, just straighten out the duvet & done. My husband who is usually warm & I who am usually cold both remain comfortable under the silk.
For pillows we each have one to sleep on, a long bolster at head of bed for propping against, and 2 square decorative pillows. Looks simple but dressed as well.

What about woven woods for shades? Add simple side panels in the LR but left alone in kitchen & bedrooms.
