Best Summer Shades for Homes
Is there anything better than summer? Long days filled with BBQs, dips in the pool, and vacations let everyone rest a little easier during this season. Of course, there is something that comes with summer that not everyone enjoys: heat. While we love a warm day when we head to the pool, lake, or beach, that type of heat and sunshine is not welcome in our home. We want to walk into a house that is cool, shaded, and lets us have some solace from the sun between our fun summer activities. If you notice that your home is still hot or bright when you pull the shades, they might not be doing your home justice. Fortunately, Hunter Douglas offers a window treatment that is stylish, customizable, and energy efficient. Read on to learn more about why we consider Hunter Douglas Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades as one of the best summer shades for homes.
A Subtle Shade with a Powerful Punch
Though these Hunter Douglas window shadings appear minimalist and chic, they pack a powerful punch when it comes to function! Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades offer the beloved, simplistic look of a roller shade that eliminates the look of clutter at your windows. However, unlike traditional roller shades, these shades are crafted from two layers of fabric that diffuse light and create a soft glow at your window. No more dealing with an absurd amount of light streaming into your home when you need some shade. This undetectable layer not only keeps the shade clean looking at your windows, but it also helps increase your home’s comfort levels and energy efficiency. The cellular construction of that second layer helps insulate your home in the winter and keeps it cool in the summer without sending your energy bills skyrocketing. If you are looking for a window treatment that offers superior energy efficiency over traditional roller shades, then Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades are the best summer shades for your home.
Stunning Colors
In addition to working hard, we want our window treatments to look beautiful in our homes as well. After all, you don’t want a window treatment that you don’t like seeing every day! That is why you will love exploring the four fabric options available within the Hunter Douglas Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shade collection. This collection offers a variety of beautiful colors that range from soft whites and neutrals to vibrant hues that allow you to make a statement in each room. Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades also feature semi-opaque and room-darkening options, so you can easily achieve your lighting, privacy, and shade needs. With so many benefits, it is easy to see why Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades are the best summer shades.
