Types of Window Shades From Hunter Douglas
When shopping for new window treatments, the average homeowner doesn’t look at just one option and say, “That’s my type,” and call it a day. Makes sense, because there are so many styles to consider based on your interior design style and needs, like better light control and privacy. And if you’re trying to differentiate between shade styles, Hunter Douglas is a fine place to start.
At Cindy's Window Fashions, our team knows Hunter Douglas shades inside and out, and we’re here to break down the different window shade styles this luxury brand offers.
Sheer Shades
Hunter Douglas sheer shades offer hybrid designs that incorporate airy panels with integrated, soft fabric vanes. Two examples, Silhouette® Sheer Shades and Luminette® Sheer Panels, gently filter daylight and UV rays while reducing glare. Because the vanes rotate, you can dial in exactly how much light enters a room without sacrificing your view.
They work well in living rooms or dining areas where ambiance and connection to the outdoors matter.
Woven Wood Shades
Window shade styles fashioned from organic materials have been at the forefront of interior trends in recent years. Each style has slight variations in color and texture because the materials are natural, which adds visual interest rather than uniformity.
Provenance® Woven Wood Shades, for instance, are crafted from grasses, reeds, bamboo, and jute. Keep in mind that most woven wood shades offer light-filtering abilities, which are great for dining rooms and living rooms, rather than full blackout, so ask our team about room-darkening liner options for bedrooms.
Cellular Shades
Cellular shades blend practicality and beauty. Their horizontal pocket structure creates insulation and an appealing aesthetic. Duette® Cellular Shades offer a luxurious, high-quality selection of materials and a range of pleat sizes, shapes, and opacities.
Thanks to their great looks and energy-efficient benefits, these window shades work great in living rooms, playrooms, and home offices.
Roman Shades
Always a homeowner favorite, Roman shades come in a wide range of fabrics, from light-filtering sheers to room-darkening options. As you raise them, the fabric folds into smooth horizontal pleats. That makes them an excellent choice for home offices or bedrooms, where a polished, layered appearance is a priority.
Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades are designed without exposed rear cords, which gives them a cleaner, more refined look.
Roller Shades
Roller shades are the go-to choice for those who want straightforward light control with a minimalist profile. Hunter Douglas Designer Roller Shades roll up into a tube at the top of the window, without any fuss, which makes them well-suited for areas like breakfast nooks and laundry rooms.
You can also opt for Designer Solar Shades, which resist UV rays without compromising your outside views, making them the perfect fit for sunrooms and areas that see a lot of sun throughout the day.
