Window Sheers and Shadings
Three Rooms That Shine with Hunter Douglas Window Sheers and Shadings
Window sheers and shadings are ideal window treatments for those who love natural light but need to temper it for comfort and UV protection. Sheer fabric filters the sunlight while floating vanes tilt to adjust light levels and privacy. They create a soft, dreamy lighting experience in contrast to other window treatments on the market, which are often simple open-or-closed window treatments. At Blinds and Us Seneca, we offer three collections from Hunter Douglas: Silhouette® Window Shadings, Pirouette® Window Shadings, and Luminette® Privacy Sheers. Let us help you figure out which rooms can use these window sheers and shadings to the best advantage.
1. Sunroom
Sunrooms are often one of the selling features of a house, charming you with their beautiful natural light. They’re wonderfully flexible spaces that can become anything you need – a sitting room, a yoga studio, an indoor greenhouse, a home office, even a dining room. Their advantage is often their disadvantage, though. The wide expanses of glass let in light, but they can let in too much light, causing issues with glare, UV damage to furniture, and energy inefficiency. However, you don’t want to just block these windows entirely; otherwise, you will lose the advantages of a sunroom. Luminette® Privacy Sheers are a great choice for sunrooms. The vertical orientation makes them suitable for oversized windows and openings such as sliding glass and swinging patio doors.
2. Home Office
As working remotely becomes more and more common, home offices become more and more important. Sunlight is essential for mood regulation and focus, so blocking the windows in our home offices is not beneficial. Instead, opt for sunlight beautifully filtered by Pirouette® Window Shadings. The ClearView® style gives you excellent view-through when you want it, and the sheer fabric lining blocks 81% of UV rays even with the vanes open. Your furniture and eyes will be protected while your body reaps the benefits of sunlight throughout the workday.
3. Living Room
Living rooms are another excellent option for window sheers and shadings. We end up spending a lot of time in our living rooms since they’re often located with the kitchen at the heart of the house. That makes their window coverings even more critical. However, you need versatile window treatments for a living room, as lighting and privacy needs are constantly changing. That’s where Silhouette® Window Shadings can help. They do it all! Need clear views into the backyard while the kids play? Choose Silhouette® ClearView® Shadings for maximum view-through. Need additional room darkening for serious movie viewings? Add Duolite® to gain an independently operable roller shade behind your Silhouette® Window Shadings. Silhouette® blocks up to 88% of UV rays, so they protect your furnishings, and with the wide range of luxurious fabrics from the Alustra® Collection of Silhouette, your home will look great and stay looking great for a long time to come.
