What Are Aura Illuminated Shades?
An innovative design that combines LED strip lighting + a reflective shade, the Aura Illuminated Shades system allows all the benefits of normal window treatments with the addition of ambient lighting–ranging in temperature, from warm to cool.
Benefits of Aura Illuminated Shades
- Shades filter light or block outside light
- Integrated LED lighting illuminates the space
- Lighting changes from warm to cool
- Complete privacy with the perfect lighting
Aura Illuminated Shades function as room darkening shades when you need them most–ideal for bedrooms and media rooms. When you want to create an illuminated atmosphere, activate the LED lighting, which works with reflective material in the window shade to create the glowing ambiance. Combine with other window covering solutions to create the perfect atmosphere. Get in touch with our team to schedule a free consultation.

Lighting Options of Aura Shades
There is a wide range of lighting that results from Aura Illuminated Shades. One shade position offers filtered natural light. Another shading provides room darkening light blocking. Then, once the LED lighting is activated, the atmosphere glows with an even wider range of lighting controls. Choose the bright light setting for cool lighting that feels productive and energizing. Change the color of the lighting to amber, and you’ll start to feel relaxed in a warm, cozy atmosphere.

Aura Illuminated Shades Lighting Temperatures
Have you noticed the way the “color” of lights can affect the atmosphere of your home? Bright cool daylight is associated with the refreshing gleam that starts the day, enhancing the mood, and getting you moving. Soft amber light, on the other hand, mimics the glow of the setting sun, and is the ideal lighting color temperature for a relaxing ambiance. The LED lighting of Aura Illuminated Shades adjusts along a range, from bright and cool, to a soft amber glow. Ambient lighting has known benefits for mood, energy, productivity and calm.

The Perfect Atmosphere Every Time
With all of the options for adjustments, it’s clear: Aura Illuminated Shades allow you to create the ideal atmosphere–every single time! Not only can you adjust the color temperature to fit the scene you’re trying to create, but you can also dim or brighten the lighting to meet your needs. It’s truly custom, and it’s becoming one of the top window treatment trends. Take it one step further with motorization of your Hunter Douglas shades. Controlled with a remote, an app, or with voice command, you’ll sit back and watch as your perfect atmosphere moves into position in an instant.
