The S-shaped vanes in these window shadings appear to magically float between two sheer panels. Their patented design gives you the perfect angle of light control at every moment of the day. The S-shaped slats also interlock when fully closed, providing the most light-blocking power of any of our sheers & shadings. If the vanes aren’t enough to convince you to choose Silhouette® Window Shadings, then consider the variety of options for the window sheers. Our sheer fabrics provide UV protection even when the vanes are open and are perfect for rooms with a view. The Silhouette® ClearView™ Tapestry™ fabric is specially engineered to provide an almost entirely unobstructed view of everything outside of your window. We can also combine these window shades with a room-darkening roller shade, which offers even more lighting options. This range of light control options makes Silhouette® Window Shadings a triumph of research and engineering.
Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Window Shadings
Letting natural sunlight into your home can be beneficial to your mood and your productivity, but it can also be damaging to the interior of your home. UV rays can fade or discolor your furniture and cause damage to your floors, walls, and decor. Pirouette® Window Shadings have been created to help solve this issue. The curated fabric collection of these sheers & shadings includes options that block up to 81% of harmful UV rays even when the vanes are open. This means that you can enjoy the benefits of sunlight without worrying about damage. The unique Invisi-Lift™ system also allows the vanes to be suspended on a single piece of sheer curtain, which means less fabric between you and the stunning views outside your window. When you choose to close the vanes on these window shades, they can block up to 99% of the sun’s rays, allowing you a chance to relax. Pirouette® Window Shadings are available in a variety of colors, patterns, and opacities so that you can find the perfect combination for your home.
If your home has sliding glass doors, French doors, wide windows, or windows that open horizontally, you will want to consider Luminette® Privacy Sheers. These sheers & shadings are vertically oriented, making them perfect for these locations. The vanes are designed to rotate 180 degrees against the sheer backing curtain. This allows for nuanced light control when you need it. Plus, you can easily pull the window sheers to one side like traditional drapery. These window shadings can also be outfitted with Hunter Douglas SofTrak™ hardware, a smooth, whisper-quiet operation option. With SofTrak™, the hardware is completely concealed when the sheer shade is closed, creating an elegant drapery look against your sliding glass door. The fabric choices for Luminette® Privacy Sheers are also designed to coordinate and match the available fabrics for Silhouette® and Pirouette® Window Shadings. This means you can have both vertical and horizontal sheers & shadings in your home without sacrificing a unified style.
