Benefits of Using Silhouette® Sheer Shades

Every shade provides some level of light control. However, many homeowners know that not every shade offers the same amount or quality. If you’re ready to transform the light in your home, consider doing so with Hunter Douglas, the leader in light transformation.

Here at Wessco Blinds, we can discuss the benefits of using Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Sheer Shades throughout your home.

Enhancing Light Control

One of the top perks of Silhouette® Sheer Shades is their ability to transform harsh lighting into a soft glow throughout your home. Featuring soft, adjustable fabric vanes between two layers of sheer fabric, these sheer shades allow you to easily tilt the vanes to filter or block sunlight as needed.

Whether you want to fill your space with soft natural light or block out the harsh midday sun, Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Sheer Shades can help you accomplish your lighting goals.

Improving Privacy

Sheer window shades balance your need for privacy and natural lighting. With Silhouette® Sheer Shades, you can enjoy the benefits of incoming sunshine without compromising your privacy. This is thanks to the sheer fabric that gently filters light while the adjustable vanes give you full control over visibility from the outside.

If your windows face a busy street, this feature lets you keep your home bright and airy without worrying about prying eyes.

Creating Custom Styles for Any Aesthetic

With sheer shades, you can create a custom style to ensure it suits your style. You can select from various fabric options, colors, and even vane sizes. Whether you desire a modern, traditional, or somewhere-in-between style, you can get these sheer shades tailored to your specific aesthetic.

Beyond their beautiful fabrics, Silhouette® Sheer Shades also offer UV protection, preventing the fading of your home’s interior, like furniture, flooring, and artwork, over time.

Designing a Safe Environment

Sheer shades are also great for designing a safe environment for pets and kids due to cordless control options. Their control options include:

  • UltraGlide® Wand.
  • SoftTouch® Motorization.
  • PowerView® Automation.

These options make it easy for you to control light filtration in your space while keeping your loved ones safe.
