Layering Hunter Douglas Window Treatments
Draperies and shutters are the two most classic window coverings of all time, and for a good reason. The elegance of rich draperies gives a finished look to your space, and the permanence of shutters adds to the value of your home. You can’t go wrong with either–or with pairing them both together. Here are a few reasons we think you’ll love pairing shutters and draperies by Hunter Douglas.
- Elegant Style: Particularly for homes with traditional or transitional design styles, the layering of draperies over shutters creates a high-end, finished look in your room.
- Personal Expression: A single window treatment can seem underwhelming on its own. Doubling up on window treatments allows you the opportunity to dial in your personal style, so your interior design really pops. For traditional interior designs, colorful patterned curtains and wood-look shutters are ideal. Those with transitional styles, on the other hand, should lean into unified color schemes with coordinating accent patterns when it comes to layering window treatments.
- Improved Light Control: For regular daytime use, leave the draperies open to frame your shutters and control desired light levels by opening and closing the shutters or tilting their louvers. When you desire complete darkness from your windows, pull the draperies closed; this works particularly well if you choose draperies with a blackout liner when layering window treatments.
- Increased Energy Efficiency: All window coverings provide improved energy efficiency in your home to some level. Uncovered windows allow in excess heat in the summer and cold in the winter, so a layer of window treatments helps greatly. Layering window treatments helps even more by creating pockets of air trapped between them to insulate your home from exterior temperatures.
