Bathroom Window Treatments

There’s nothing better than a bright, sunny bathroom window unless you need privacy. Most opt to simply keep their bathroom windows covered completely, but we love window treatments that easily allow a combination of light and privacy. We’ve rounded up three of our favorite window treatments for bathrooms to help inspire your interior design.

Bathroom Window Treatments, Hunter Douglas Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Shutters near Grand Rapids, Michigan (MI)

For gorgeous filtered sunlight in your bathroom, go with Silhouette® Window Shadings from Hunter Douglas. Silhouette® uses two layers of sheer fabric to suspend s-shaped privacy vanes that can rotate up to 180º to control visibility. The diffused light will help you look your best as you get ready, and the fabrics filter out up to 88% of the UV rays that can damage your skin, eyes, and furnishings. That means your bathroom can be filled with gentle natural light all day without worry. When you need privacy, simply twist the opaque vanes closed.

When you want sunshine and privacy at the same time, try Hunter Douglas Duette® Honeycomb Shades. The top-down/bottom-up adjustment option allows you to cover any portion of the window you desire, which makes it easy to combine light and coverage in a way that suits your space. Keep your shades closed at the bottom of the window and open towards the top to allow simultaneous sunlight and privacy without opening or closing them often. Best of all, Duette® Honeycomb Shades also insulate your bathroom from outside air temperatures thanks to a layer of air trapped in the honeycomb structure. This can be very helpful with temperature management since bathrooms are prone to heating up, anyways.

A classic way to enjoy both light and privacy in your bathroom is to install shutters on the lower half of the window. Hunter Douglas has the perfect shutters to do so: Palm BeachTM PolysatinTM Shutters are made with a synthetic product that is specifically designed for extreme environments, such as the high heat and moisture in bathrooms. As a result, your shutters are guaranteed to never warp, crack, peel, fade, or yellow. They’re also resistant to mildew, so your space will stay cleaner. Your shutters and your whole bathroom will look great for years to come, no matter how many hot showers you take.

Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades provide a minimalist look that still cleverly combines light and privacy. Alternating opaque and sheer fabric bands rotate in a continuous loop around the shade, allowing you to align the bands to let light through the sheers or offset them to create a solid shade for privacy. When open, the sheer fabric filters the sunlight and reduces glare for a soft, attractive glow throughout your bathroom.
