Choose Sheer Shades for the Perfect Sunroom
In Hawaii, we get a lot of use from our sunrooms, but finding just the right window treatments for them can be challenging. You want a certain amount of privacy and light control without losing any of the sunlight you love so much. Sheer shades are an ideal solution for this situation, and they come in various styles and window sizes.
The Cost-Effective Option
Inexpensive sunroom window treatments aren’t a myth! Sheer shades tend to be less costly than other types of fabric shades or drapes because they require less material to manufacture. While they may be budget-friendly, they also offer a sleek, high-end aesthetic. Sheer shades also provide outstanding protection from UV rays, so your furniture and flooring won’t fade or discolor over time from exposure to sunlight.
Designing a Stunning Sunroom
There’s more to a spectacular sunroom than its window coverings. What better place than your sunroom to enjoy large, tropical plants and potted trees? Treat your sunroom as an extension of your home’s interior and add area rugs and artwork. Choose paint in shades of light gray, beige, or tan to give the walls some color without being too busy and bold. Your sunroom is meant for peaceful relaxation, after all.
Sheer Shades Styles
Sheer shades gently diffuse sunlight to evenly distribute it throughout your room and eliminate harsh glares. They’re also lightweight, so even shades on large windows can be operated effortlessly. All three sheer shades styles from Hunter Douglas are compatible with the award-winning PowerView® Automation system.
Silhouette® Sheer Shades: Silhouette® Sheer Shades feature dual sheer panels and adjustable fabric vanes to give you exceptional light control and privacy without leaving you in the dark. Choose from three vane sizes to fit all styles, from contemporary to classic and everything in between.
Pirouette® Sheer Shades: Pirouette® Sheer Shades are the ideal window covering solution for those who prefer a sleek, minimalist aesthetic. They feature adjustable fabric vanes on a single sheer backing and are available in fabrics from the exclusive Alustra® Collection. Four and five-inch vanes look exquisite against oversized windows.
Luminette® Sheer Panels: Does your sunroom feature sliding glass doors that need covering? Luminette® Sheer Panels are up to the task. These vertical shades perfectly combine the delicate beauty of sheer shades and the practical function of vertical blinds. The vanes turn 180 degrees for maximum privacy and sun control.
