What To Look For In A Window Treatment

Making the most out of your natural lighting is a key component of any lighting strategy. Having the right lighting sets the mood, determines the ambiance, and can completely transform any living or working space.

However, natural lighting is also harder to control. Unlike light fixtures where you can have almost complete control of the glow, brightness levels, and even bulb colors. When it comes to natural lighting, however, you can’t simply turn it on or off on cue or make it shine through your window at just the right angle.

Making the most out of your natural lighting is a key component of any lighting strategy. Having the right lighting sets the mood, determines the ambiance, and can completely transform any living or working space.

However, natural lighting is also harder to control. Unlike light fixtures where you can have almost complete control of the glow, brightness levels, and even bulb colors. When it comes to natural lighting, however, you can’t simply turn it on or off on cue or make it shine through your window at just the right angle.

One of the ways that interior designers help you to make the most out of natural lighting for your home or office is through installing window treatments. Window treatments such as shades, sheers, shutters, and blinds, allow you to control light and increase your sense of privacy.

However, with the sheer amount of options available, it can be difficult to know where to start. At Shelby Design Center, we work with Hunter Douglas to ensure our customers receive the best possible window treatment options.

In fact, we’ve scoured the market and chose Hunter Douglas from among many because they exemplify certain key characteristics that set them apart from the rest. Here are just a few:

Beauty & Functionality

When it comes to window treatments, form and function are absolute non-negotiables. When it comes to light control, privacy, and beautiful design Hunter Douglas simply cannot be beat.

From their carefully curated fabrics (they have access to over 2,400 different textiles) to their industry-leading designs, these custom window treatments can help you achieve the light control you’re looking for, provide top-tier UV protection, all while keeping to the highest standards of durability. They even come with a lifetime limited warranty, so you can rest assured your window treatments will last for the long haul.

Level Of Energy Efficiency

When it comes to energy savings, Hunter Douglas has been leading the way since 1985. Their Duette Architella® fabric features a honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb design for a maximized amount of energy efficiency.

This unique design is specially engineered to trap air and create a layer of insulation between the window and the room’s indoor temperature. This means a cooler home in the summer, a warmer home in the winter, and lower energy costs and stress on your HVAC system. It’s a win all around.

Child Safety Features

Hunter Douglas understands that children have a curious nature that loves to explore. And while that’s a wonderful thing, it can also turn something seemingly harmless like an operating cord into a deadly hazard.

That’s why they’ve designed a variety of motorized systems and cordless options. From their LiteRise® and SimpleLift™ systems to their electronic PowerView® motorization, there are a wide range of options to choose from that are designed to keep your child safe while not sacrificing a lick of functionality or beauty.
