LIVING ROOM BLINDS AND SHADES
October 28, 2022 By Hunter Douglas What Living Room Window Treatments Work Best?
Cellular Shades: Superior Energy Efficiency and Style |

If energy efficiency is a top priority, cellular shades, like Duette® Honeycomb Shades, are an ideal living room window treatment. The cellular design of Duette shades adds a layer of insulation at the window, so you can reduce energy consumption and stay comfortable all year long. You can also opt for the Duette Architella® honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb construction if you want extra insulation.

The great thing about Duette shades is that they come in so many pleat sizes, colors, patterns, textures and opacities that they'll work with any living room décor. You can even combine two fabrics on the same shade for more light control.

Designer Screen Shades and UV Protection |

Even on cloudy days, UV rays can fade and damage your artwork, fabrics and carpet. They can also dry out and bleach your hardwood floors and wood furniture, breaking down the paint or stain finishes and joint sealants. To protect your living room furnishings, solar shades, such as Designer Screen Shades, offer excellent UV protection and gorgeous fabrics as well as opacities ranging from sheer to opaque .
You don't have to stick to solar shades for UV protection though. Virtually all Hunter Douglas shades, blinds and shutters filter at least 75% of the sun's rays when installed over double-glazed glass picture windows.
Modern Window Coverings for Large Windows |

Do you have huge windows to cover? If so, some of the best window treatments for large living room windows have a vertical design, lending a more contemporary feel to the treatment and to your room. Luminette® Privacy Sheers are perfect for large windows and even living room patio doors. Soft fabric vanes combined with vertical sheer panels give you the drama of drapes, but with a modern touch.

Other Living Room Shade Ideas
Top treatments, such as cornices, are hard-working decorative elements. Wooden or fabric covered, they can add a finished accent to your living room shades or blinds while concealing window treatment hardware. They also help block unwanted light around the top of your window treatment and draw the eye upward, making your room seem more spacious. |
