Sheer Vertical Blinds Embrace the Outdoors
Summer 2021 is all about getting out, enjoying the outdoors, and making the most of the season. After long days spent at home in 2020, enjoying the beauty of the outdoors has become more of a priority for many; and there’s no better season to enjoy in the great outdoors than summer. The outdoors has become so desirable that we’re even bringing it home with us, incorporating natural elements into our daily life and consciously working to enhance the connection between the inside and the outside in our homes. This appreciation for nature comes through in interior design with the incorporation of natural elements (like light) and natural materials (like wood) in room designs. What that means for window treatments is that styles that can balance the indoors and outdoors fluidly are emerging as popular styles for the summer of 2021. These versatile window treatments include sheer vertical blinds, hardwood shutters, and modern operating systems.
Sheer Vertical Blinds
Sheer is an amazing material to use in home decorating because its translucent properties make it the ideal medium to bridge the outdoors (and its sometimes harsh elements) and the indoors. Sheer material is graceful yet purposeful in the way it can diffuse light, block UV, and create natural illumination with a soft glow. When window treatments combine sheer materials with opaque materials, such as in sheer vertical blinds, the opportunities to create different lighting effects grow exponentially. This means that a homeowner’s control also increases and that control equates to better lighting and an increased feeling of privacy. Sheer vertical blinds control light effectively and they control the view into your home for increased privacy that can be adjusted (either increased or decreased) easily by rotating the blind’s opaque vanes. For example, Luminette® Privacy Sheers, whose vanes can rotate up to 180° for the ultimate range of light control and privacy options.
Interior Shutters
For hard window treatments, interior shutters are an elegant solution to embracing natural elements while still protecting the interior of your home. Not only are the louvers of plantation-style shutters like Heritance® Hardwood Shutters crafted from genuine hardwood, but the spaces between the louvers also add natural light and a view of the outdoors for a window treatment with dimensional connections to the outdoors. As a design element, wood’s arboreal beauty meshes well with traditional or modern styles, and its organic warmth balances dark or light color as well as metals, which are popular in industrial styles of residential and commercial design.
Top-down/Bottom-up
It’s not just the window treatments themselves that help creates harmony between the indoors and outdoors in your home; the special operating systems offered by brand leaders like Hunter Douglas can maximize that connection. Top-Down/Bottom-Up shades, for example, allow homeowners to embrace natural light in more ways by allowing blinds to open from the bottom up (like traditional styles) or from the top down. Hunter Douglas’s Top-Down/Bottom-Up features are available on select styles of woven wooden shades, cellular honeycomb shades, and Roman shades.
