Warm Winters with Light-Loving shades

With shorter days in the wintertime, daylight hours become even more precious. Invest in sun-loving shades for your home to welcome in natural sunlight with equal parts grace and control. Light loving shades by Hunter Douglas encompass a varied collection of window coverings from soft shadings to classic hardwood shutters. These options love light and are designed to precisely control it for interior illumination that’s easy on the eyes with a welcoming ambiance tailormade to individual household needs.

Pirouette® Window Shadings near Miami, Florida (FL), that provide light filtration throughout the winter.

Sheer Shadings

Sheer shades invite sunlight in with their translucent materials and then transform it into soft illumination. The spectrum of light control provided by sheer shadings is thanks to the combination of both sheer and opaque fabrics. This allows these light-loving shades to diffuse, deflect, or outright block incoming sunlight.

  • Pirouette® Window Shadings: The horizontal vanes seem to float with Pirouette® Window Shadings that use fabric fronted vanes on a chic sheer backing to create light loving shades that feel light as air.
  • Silhouette® Window Shadings: Silhouette® Window Shadings are known for their trademark s-shaped fabric vanes that maneuver between two layers of silky, sheer materials for soft diffusion or room-darkening effects.
  • Luminette® Privacy Sheers: A vertical option from Hunter Douglas that combines the graceful movement of drapery like fabrics with light loving sheers for dimensional door and window applications.

Solar Shades

Enhanced screen materials in solar shades take in sunlight and solar heat and transform the elements into a welcoming indoor ambiance. With solar shades, light control and view-through beauty go hand in hand with several design styles that innovatively use screen textiles to creates stylish, light-loving shades that perform at optimal levels.

  • Designer Screen Shades: Light-loving shades made for sun-soaked rooms that curb harsh sunlight and also have view-through capabilities thanks to fabric choices in multiple opacities and designs.
  • Designer Banded Shades: With both light loving solar screen materials and light-blocking opaque fabrics that move in tandem, banded shades respond to bright or subdued light with precision creating comfortable and welcoming interior illumination.

Plantation Shutters

Light-loving shades don’t always have to be literal shades. Plantation shutters are light-loving window coverings that have a hard, clean aesthetic. With tiltable louvers, incoming light can be welcomed in or protected against with a full range of nuanced positions in between. The Hunter Douglas collection includes three styles of modern plantation shutters.
