Smart Everything

The ease and convenience of automation has enhanced so many parts of our lives. Home automation is worth prioritizing. At the push of a button or a tap of an app you can experience privacy, lasting effects on utility bills, and comfort.  You can even schedule the opening and closing of window coverings when you’re not home. Motorized blinds, shades, shutters, and drapery are capable of delivering the best experience. Hunter Douglas presents a number of new innovations in technology. A few examples are solar powered motorization and rechargeable batteries. The best part? They can be fitted for previously purchased motorized shades.

It’s a Sheer Thing

One of the most appealing features of windows is how they welcome natural light, allowing it to cascade beautifully into your home. Sheer fabrics enhance this effect by softening sunlight while offering protection from harsh elements. They reduce glare without blocking the inviting glow of the sun. And yet, still provide daytime privacy as you enjoy the view outside. For added versatility, modern sheer window treatments often include dual shade features, giving you greater control over the ambiance of your space. Available in both horizontal and vertical styles, they offer a sleek look. Curious? Just check out our Luminette® Privacy Sheers.
