The style, shape, and function of a home’s window can underscore a home’s sophistication, coziness or cutting-edge style. The following are some of today’s most exciting formats and treatments:
Palladian or arched windows are graceful and sophisticated, but hard to cover. Fortunately, Hunter Douglas uses a variety of designs to cover uncommonly shaped windows. For example, Duette ® honeycomb shades can be found in an arch shape, developed to raise and lower efficiently from top to bottom on “ideal” and “imperfect” arches, permitting privacy, light control, and easy window cleaning.
Lighten and Brighten
Skylights can lighten a room, make space feel bigger and bring an eccentric aspect to an otherwise dull area. When left bare, skylights typically allow too much light and sun that can fade furnishings and overheat a space. Duette with Skyrise ® is the best solution, softening the light and supplying energy efficiency. Hardware with rails on all 4 sides keeps the shade in place safely and safely. What’s more, this choice is offered with an easy, inexpensive, battery-operated remote-control system to open and close hard-to-reach tones.
Advanced Sliders
Floor-to-ceiling windows add a dimension of enjoyment to any structure while sliding glass doors are modeled after Japan’s rice paper shoji screens. House owners enjoy the additional light however often get flustered when it concerns how to dress them. Duette with Vertiglide defeats that style issue with honeycomb fabric that is oriented vertically with the shade operating sideways. When open, it folds back to a simple 6 inches no matter how large the treatment. It can be manually run or motorized.
A bay window is generally a center window and two angled side windows. It uses lots of light for a book nook or dining alcove. Ideal for trio windows is a Top-Down/Bottom-Up style where the shade opens from the top or the bottom or both ways for personal privacy in addition to a view.
European Attraction
French doors have actually been popular for years and slim, trim Duette honeycomb shades do not add a great deal of bulk or noisy rattling when these European imports are opened and closed.
Sidelight Windows
Those ubiquitous narrow windows found on one or both sides of a door ask for a window fashion service such as the brand-new Duette Operable Sidelight.
From the smallest sliver of a window to arches, angles, octagons and trapezoids, practically all window shapes and types can be magnificently dressed with Duette honeycomb shades.
