Sheer Shading, such as the Hunter Douglas Silhouette & Luminette combines the softness, beauty and light diffusion of sheers with functional fabric vanes for total light control. The sheer fabric layers transform sunlight into remarkable beauty, while the fabric vanes suspended between the sheers give you precise control allowing you to create an ambiance that reflects your own style. Sheer Shading is offered in both horizontal and vertical orientation to accommodate both windows and sliding glass doors or larger expanses of glass.
Cellular shades, also commonly referred to as honeycomb shades, are an exceptionally versatile and energy-efficient window treatment. Honeycomb Shades earn their name from their honeycomb shaped cells that trap air in distinct pockets to increase insulation, temperature control, and energy savings. This specially engineered design enables you to keep your home cool in summer and warm in the winter.
Honeycomb Shades offer the most expansive range of options in the industry and are custom-made in an array of colors, textures, opacities, and pleat sizes. Available in premium fabrics ranging from sheer to blackout, cellular shades allow for optimal privacy and light control with minimal light gaps.
Banded Shades, sometimes called Zebra shades, are a breakthrough in style and function; they gently filters the sun, combining the light control of a horizontal blind with the beauty of a fabric shade. This window treatment style gives you the ability to raise and lower your shade while still controlling the amount of light. Completely closed, completely open, or anywhere in between. The fabric-covered headrail beautifully blends the fabric and hardware together for a seamless appearance.
All of these options are available in a variety of operating systems from manual cordless, corded, battery operated and wired motorization. All products are made and installed with child and pet safety in mind.
