1. A window treatment configured to selectively cover a window that separates an exterior space from an interior space, the window treatment comprising:

  • a headrail that is elongate along a first direction and is configured to be coupled to a structure adjacent the window within the interior space;

    a covering material having a top end and a bottom end that is spaced from the top end along a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, the top end of the covering material being operatively attached to the headrail such that the covering material is movable along the second direction between a raised position and a lowered position, the covering material further having a first side and a second side that is opposite the first side and faces the window when the headrail is coupled to the structure; and

    a light source configured to illuminate at least a majority of the second side of the covering material when the covering material is in the lowered position to thereby cause ambient light on the second side of the covering material to be greater than that on the first side of the covering material.
