Barrows Custom Window Treatments • February 24, 2020
When you want to create a new look for each room in your home, choosing the right window treatments is crucial. While it may be easy to think of the blinds, shades, or shutters you choose as a bit of an afterthought, your choice will end up having a big effect on the final look of your home. Choosing custom shades is an ideal way to create a design scheme that speaks your style and fits your ideal vision for your home. And when you choose custom roller and solar shades from Hunter Douglas, you’ll have nearly endless ways to make your windows look perfect for your home. 

Designer Roller Shades

This premium collection of home shades from Hunter Douglas offers a modern aesthetic for your windows while also giving you tons of ways to get creative by mixing and matching different custom options. Designer Roller Shades have a simple and sleek shape, creating a minimal and calming look for your home windows. Adjusting your windows is effortless and quick thanks to the advanced head rail design, which uses Custom Clutch technology to help you precisely move your shades. Combined with the precise construction of these custom roller shades, this gives you minimal light gaps for great light control. It also helps add to the upscale feel of your shades. There are hundreds of available fabrics you can choose from to customize your shades, along with various colors and patterns. 

Designer Screen Shades

This variation of the Designer Roller Shades collection offers brilliant light and UV protection for every room in your home. Designer Screen Shades are made with low-opacity fabric, which results in only soft natural light entering your home while your shades are lowered rather than glare. At the same time, you will still get a great view of the outdoors with these shades along with privacy during the daytime. Not only are these shades ideal for installing in any room in your home for soft light, but you can install them outside on your porch or deck thanks to the weather-resistant fabrics. In addition to a wide variety of fabric options available for these custom solar shades, you can choose from different colors and opacities to achieve your ideal look for your windows. 

Designer Banded Shades

Offering a distinctive look for your windows, these custom banded shades are perfect for flexible light control and dynamic style. Designer Banded Shades feature two panels of fabric, each of which alternates between sheer and opaque fabric bands. This design lets you quickly switch from soft light to total shade with a simple motion. You can choose between a horizontal banded shape and a geometric curved shape as well. Additionally, you can choose from a variety of patterns and colors to customize your banded shades.

The unexpected circular shapes will energize your design style. Don’t be a square – or even a rectangle! Rooms that have only sharp edges and straight lines can create a feeling of too much order and lead to a sense of discomfort or inflexibility. Add just a few round elements as an accent to soften and relax a room. You can be creative in your definition of “round” to include more than perfect circles. Include ovals, egg-shapes, ellipses, arches, curls, cylinders, rings and more. The idea is just that you add a few rounded shapes, in addition to the straight lines and square corners that are everywhere in your home. Even in the feng shui concept of interior design, round shapes are important. Feng shui is about balancing five elements, one of which is metal. The metal element is expressed as a round shape in decor; and round design elements are believed to bring clarity, precision, freshness and equality into a room. The possibilities for adding round shapes to your home environment are almost unlimited: Round pillows Curved patterns in wallpaper or upholstery fabric Cylindrical, round or oval accessories – such as vases, bowls and urns Disk-shaped tables – including dining tables, end tables and coffee tables Round light fixtures or lamps A circular sofa sectional Elliptical or round mirrors or artwork Spiral staircases And if you’re remodeling, round windows and arch top doorways or windows – or you can change the shape of a room to have a rounded window bay. Circular or oval rugs Think outside the box. Round out your interior design with some circular shapes!
