Smart Living with Motorized Shades

Motorized shades provide innovative features and advanced technology that provide convenience and keep up with the fast pace of the world we are living in.

The PowerView® system allows homeowners the ability to control their window coverings from anywhere and enjoy the ease of the rechargeable battery wands and the extended battery life. With the Hunter Douglas® PowerView® motorization system, you can easily regulate your shades to your preferred position, all with a voice command or tap.

Another major benefit of motorized shades is that they are energy efficient. Since you can schedule your shades to open and close at specific times during the day, you will be able to save energy and reduce your utility bills.

Ultimately, smart homes are progressively growing in popularity, and motorized shades like the PowerView® system are features that are both user-friendly and innovative solutions for window treatments.

Woven Wood Shades

We have noticed that earthy and organic styles have emerged. You can anticipate a more natural and eco-friendly style being sought-after.

Woven wood shades use natural fibers and organic materials that make them a sustainable and eco-friendly option. For instance, they can include organic fibers, reeds, grasses, bamboo, etc. The natural materials have a unique natural look that adds texture, warmth, and a rustic feel to any room.

The natural materials and design of the shades work to control the temperature and light while reducing energy consumption. This means that during the summer months, the shades will help block out sunlight to keep room temperatures colder.

In retrospect, in the winter months, the shades can keep the heat in the house because the natural materials supply a layer of insulation that traps warm air inside the house.

Provenance® Woven Wood Shades from Hunter Douglas offers an assortment of styles to choose from that will provide comfort and coziness to your home!

Faux Wood Blinds

The rise of eco-friendly products is undeniable, as conversations about protecting the earth and climate change have become more relevant.

Faux wood blinds are a must for homeowners who are seeking the look of real wood but are made from materials like PVC (or other composite materials). No trees are cut down to create faux wood blinds.

The VC and composite plastics that are used can all be recycled when the window treatment is finished. Faux wood blinds can be transformed into something new by being broken down.

Faux wood blinds are both environmentally friendly and would be considered UV protectants. Harmful UV rays can easily come into your home through your windows. Therefore, it is very important to compare the ratings of various models to make sure that your protection is intact.

If you are interested in eco-friendly products, we encourage browsing Alta Faux Wood Blinds. There are several products available to choose from.

Honeycomb Shades

Recently, bold patterns and prints such as geometric shapes, oversized florals, and abstract prints have become popular. This trend tends to add personality to your home!

Honeycomb shades, also known as cellular shades, are geometric folds that resemble honeycombs.

These shades are great at blocking out light and extreme temperatures.

• Traps pockets of hot and cold air so that your furnace and air-conditioning work less
  
  

One kind of honeycomb shade that we suggest is Duette cellular shades by Hunter Douglas®. These shades have a unique design that will add character to any room and provide insulation.
