The Best Window Coverings for Summer
Summertime is finally here, with loads of glorious Iowa sunshine. While the sun has many benefits, it can also cause damage, making window coverings an essential part of your summer comfort.
Our team at Interior Re-Styling is delighted to introduce you to some of our favorite Hunter Douglas summer window shades and the best window coverings for light control, energy efficiency, and summer views.
Our Favorite Summer Window Shades for Iowa Homes
Suppose you like spending leisurely afternoons on your porch or sunroom. In that case, Hunter Douglas Designer Solar Shades are an excellent window treatment solution —their innovative design curbs harsh UV rays without compromising your view.
Custom solar shades are ideal for using your porch or sunroom as a home office. They eliminate the annoying glare, allowing you to feel more productive.
Best Window Coverings for Light Control, Energy Efficiency, & Summer Views
It’s important to consider light control, energy efficiency, and outdoor views when shopping for the most effective summer window treatments.
Here are a few of our recommendations:
NewStyle® Composite Shutters for Superior Light Control
Interior shutters are excellent for light control, especially NewStyle® Composite Shutters. Adjusting the sturdy louvers lets you control how much sunlight enters your home. The durability of these composite shutters enables them to withstand the Iowa heat and humidity.
They differ from other window treatments in that you can create lighting scenarios by opening or closing the louvers completely or slanting them, allowing minimal light inside.
Duette® Cellular Shades for Unbeatable Energy Efficiency
If energy efficiency is a priority, Duette® Cellular Shades are the perfect choice. Hunter Douglas cellular shades are the most insulating window treatments on the market and deliver unparalleled energy efficiency. Their innovative honeycomb design traps hot air so your home stays cool in the hot summer weather.
For advanced insulating properties, consider the Duette Architella® Cellular Shades, which boast a honeycomb within a honeycomb design. Choose from various fabrics and hues to find one that satisfies your design style.
Silhouette® Sheer Shades to Take in Your Summer View
One of the best things about summer is taking in all the spectacular views and vibrant colors; sheer shades let you do that while keeping cool. Specifically, Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Sheer Shades feature S-shaped fabric vanes that float between sheers and offer gorgeous, diffused light with daytime privacy without compromising your summer scenes.
These stunning summer window shades are available in horizontal and vertical orientations and hues ranging from soft whites to calming neutrals.
