Now is the perfect time to let the sun in and begin to enjoy bright days throughout your home. But have you noticed that maybe it’s too bright? Or that anybody can see you from the outside? It’s time to start designing your window treatment and what a better place to start than with the basic, first layer. You can keep enjoying the summer light; but with the privacy and light control that complement your home and your life style.

Let me give you a brief description of some of your options from Hunter Douglas. The Sheer Window Shadings is composed of two sheer fabrics supporting a series of s-shaped fabric vanes that could be tilted and closed for light control and privacy. This treatment is made of sheer fabric and is available in many colors to select from, so you can find the perfect one for your space. The treatments also provides UV protection. The view from the outside is clear; while, the view from the street is obscure during the day offering privacy.

Silhouettes look like a drapery but works like a blind. Luminettes are vertical treatment specially suited to cover entire walls or French doors. Honeycombs are as durable as they are beautiful. They combine the luxury of soft fabric with remarkable strength and superior performance. They are made of soft, textured, woven and non woven fabrics with crisp even pleats that trap air for maximum energy efficiency. We offer several pleat sizes, a wide range of colors and textures, and fabrics with opacities that range from sheer to opaque.
