All Natural Inspiration

One of the simplest window treatment trends to implement is the use of organic materials. We love the idea of bringing natural elements into the home. Choose bamboo, grasses and woven woods to introduce an earthy vibe. These window shades are very popular due to the range of colors and textures, in addition to the varying texture of the weave patterns. Elevate your neutral palette with window coverings made from organic materials. Discover how Woven Wood Shades can add to the look of your home.

Smarten Up Your Life

With our busy lives, it’s nice to have one less thing to think about. The technological innovations in home automation continue to improve, becoming easier and more widely available. Our clients love the idea of setting their motorized blinds, shades, shutters or drapes on a schedule that works for them. It’s not only convenient, but smart home automation also provides home security by lowering blinds at night. You can experience energy savings by blocking out the elements during the day.

Sustainable Window Coverings

It’s on every consumer’s mind, more and more these days. It’s sustainability. Products that last, with durable design, are continually sought-after. Companies such as Hunter Douglas offer responsible manufacturing and recycled fabrics and materials to ensure we all have better options for waste. Another way consumers are seeking sustainability is how window coverings can affect the energy usage in their homes. More pleasant natural light leads to less artificial light usage. Options for energy efficient thermal protection–all year round–are leading homeowners to products that insulate at the window.

Elegant Sheers

It’s no secret that sheer window coverings invite soft, natural light while showing off dynamic views. Sheer shades are available in both horizontal and vertical orientation, which means that you can find amazing options for windows and doors in your home. Sheer shades offer daytime privacy, reflecting the rays of sunshine back outside. When you want more privacy at night, sheer shades can rotate or close to increase the control. We also have sheer shades with dual shade control, adding control–even room darkening when necessary.

Layers of Layers

Similar to your wardrobe, layers will always be in style. Sometimes, it’s for style. Other times, it’s for comfort. The same could be said of layering draperies and shades. This timeless look is one of this year’s top window treatment trends. Combine colors and patterns for a personal design statement. Bring neutrals into play with textures fabrics that pair beautifully. Window shades are the base layer of the design–providing light control and privacy. Then, the side drapery panels frame the window with effortless style, closing when necessary for additional control.
