Sheer Fabrics

Just as sheer scarves are making a comeback in women's wear, so are soft, translucent fabrics for home interiors. The trend is migrating from Asia, where sheer textiles have long been favored by fashion and interior designers. Luxurious and sensual, sheer materials elevate the style of any room. At Hunter Douglas, you'll find hundreds of sheer fabrics across our product lines.

Daylighting

With many Hunter Douglas window fashions, you can precisely control how much natural light comes into your room. You can also control where that light goes by tilting the louvers, slats, vanes and panels. Our design colleague Natasha Lima-Younts, president of Designer Society of America, particularly likes Hunter Douglas Silhouette

The New Pink & Green

Pink and green emerged as the hot new colors at the design shows in Paris and Frankfurt this year (individually and mixed together). The pinks are soft like a blush or bold like a raspberry, and everything in between. The new greens are yellow-based—the color of a bursting seedling to a sharp chartreuse. Mixed together with white, these colors can be preppy. Mixed together with a black, they can be sophisticated while still being youthful. Visit the Color Page in the Things to Consider section for more insights about today's most popular colors.

Cornices

Looking for the perfect crowning touch to your window treatment? Striking yet subtle, cornices of all styles transform an ordinary room into an elegant and memorable setting. Coined from the Italian word cornice (which means "ledge"), the horizontal molding provides an extra accent of style as well as structural focus to virtually any room. This design element will draw your eye upward, adding expansive height and space to your living area. At Hunter Douglas, you'll discover a wide selection of beautiful cornices and first-rate stains.

Automated Systems for your home

Gadgets that we previously saw only in a James Bond movie are now a part of our daily lives. Lighting, heating and cooling, security systems, even kitchen appliances — and, yes, window fashions — can be automated and controlled remotely. With Hunter Douglas Platinum Technology, you can raise or lower window fashions like honeycomb shades using a wireless remote control.

Eco Designs

Making the green grade means different things to different people. At Hunter Douglas, one of our green standards is energy conservation. In 1985, we invented the highly energy-efficient Duette honeycomb shades in response to the energy crisis of the late 1970s. More recently, we've introduced the Duette Architella Collection, which offer superior energy efficiency thanks to their patented honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb construction.

Sleep Better

I used to suffer from lack of sleep until I properly covered my windows with room-darkening fabrics. To determine if a fabric from Hunter Douglas will block out light, look at the sample swatch's opacity rating - the higher, the better. Or, hold a sample swatch up to a shade-less lamp with a high wattage. For a close-up view of fabric selections, visit The Hunter Douglas iMagine™ Design Center or visit your local Hunter Douglas dealer.

Metallic Surfaces

Alluring and theatrical, metallic surfaces are back in style. You'll see them as primary and secondary design elements throughout the home, from stainless steel furniture to gold leaf accessories. At Hunter Douglas, you'll find many window fashions featuring distinctive metallic hardware surfaces. Visit The Hunter Douglas iMagine™ Design Center to see these product features up close.
