When you are looking for window treatments, light control is obviously a major factor in your decision-making. But not all window treatments are created equal, and some offer more flexibility than others. For example, a simple, classic roller shade is easy to use and functional. As it is raised, more light can come in through the window, and as it is closed, less light comes in. However, another common window treatment style is still easy to use but offers a little more flexibility. With blinds, you can raise the entire set and allow more light in, or you can adjust the angle of the slats which will determine how much light can filter in. For those that often try to balance a need for privacy with a desire for more light, blinds might have the advantage. But if the cords connecting the slats seems to mar your interior design, what can you do? With modern window shadings from Richmond Decorating, you can enjoy greater light control without sacrificing a clean design.
Silhouette® Window Shadings from Hunter Douglas combine the functionality concept of blinds with the uniformity of a single shade. With these window treatments, S-shaped vanes are connected to two fabric sheers. The vanes appear to float between the two panels of fabric and allow you to tilt and adjust the vanes as needed. That means you can keep anyone on the outside from looking in while allowing light to softly filter between the vanes, creating a gentle, diffused glow.
Piroutte® Window Shadings offer similar flexibility with less fabric. These shadings are built with curved vanes that are attached to a single sheer back panel. When you open and close the shadings, the vanes will move in tandem, creating a fluid effect. If you have moments where privacy isn’t a concern, then you can raise the shadings into the headrail completely.
If you have large windows or sliding glass doors, you can opt for Luminette® Privacy Sheers to take advantage of this modern style. This product has a front sheer panel with vertical fabric vanes attached to the back. Similar to the other styles, you can rotate the vanes as needed to let light filter through the sheer fabric, or you can rotate them completely to block out light. They can also be operated as a unit to create an unobstructed view.
While having options for controlling light in your home is a major benefit, sometimes accessing your shadings can still be an obstacle. If you quickly want to protect your privacy, you might find yourself rushing around and standing or leaning on furniture to reach a cord or wand. However, with PowerView® Motorization, you can control your modern shadings with the touch of a button using a remote or mobile device. Plus, you can even schedule the movements of your shadings for a set-it-and-forget-it hands-free experience.
