Elegant Window Coverings for Refined Style
Whether you’re accustomed to an elegant aesthetic or redecorating to create a more refined style, the right window treatments will pull your room together. Window treatments provide an opportunity to soften the hard lines of a window and control light and privacy.
At Smart PNW, our team is well-versed in the language of luxurious window coverings, and we’re sharing our top picks with you, from the fine collection at Hunter Douglas.
Designer Banded Shades
Designer Banded Shades pair the sleek functionality of a roller shade, the slats of a blind, and the delicate appearance of sheer shades, bringing a touch of unique style to your contemporary home. The alternating sheer and opaque fabric bands allow you to enjoy the view and natural light without losing your privacy. Three-band heights make it a breeze to dress any size window.
Carole Fabrics™ Roman Shades
The soft folds of Roman shades are synonymous with elegance. Carole Fabrics™ Roman Shades are available in thousands of fabrics and numerous styles, including hobbled, front, and reverse folds. We love the look of Roman shades in formal dining and sitting rooms. The standard liner gives your home a clean, consistent appearance from the outside, and an attached flat valance provides the ultimate polishing touch.
Carole Fabrics™ Custom Drapes
We can’t talk about elegant window coverings without mentioning drapery. Drapes are most often made from sumptuous fabrics, like satin or silk, but you can opt for other materials, like linen or cotton blends. The length of drapery contributes significantly to their luxurious appeal. Yours can form a small puddle of fabric on the floor or be a bit shorter; the general rule is that proper drapery falls no more than half an inch above the floor.
Parkland® Wood Blinds
Wood blinds bring warmth and charm to a space without making it feel fussy or uninviting. Parkland® Wood Blinds are available in over 50 stains and colors; opt for a darker stain to give yours a more refined aesthetic. Give your Parkland® Wood Blinds extra personality with decorative tapes or a distinguished cornice. Blinds are an excellent window treatment to layer with drapery because they lie close to the window and offer outstanding variable light control.
Duette® Cellular Shades
Cellular shades are not only attractive, but they also offer superior insulation at the window. They feature a honeycomb-like interior that traps air to keep unwanted hot or cold air from passing through and around the window. Cellular shades are perfect for sliding glass doors and skylights, making it easy to create a cohesive design within your home. Choose the top-down/bottom-up design to simultaneously ensure maximum privacy and natural light. Consider Duette® Cellular Shades with a 1 ¼” wide cell for a dramatic, sophisticated appearance on more oversized windows.
