If you have decided that shades are the perfect fit for a space inside your home, you have likely found yourself considering the possibilities when it comes to color and style. As a result of the vast assortment of options, it's not unusual to wonder which type is truly the best fit for your needs. At McCarty’s Window Fashions, our friendly team members are here to help you as you go about choosing the right shades.
When choosing the right shades, an important decision to make is whether or not you are hoping to achieve a new level of protection and insulation. Poorly outfitted windows can allow the entrance of unwanted air, so putting an effective buffer in place can certainly make a noticeable difference. If this sounds like a problem you have been trying to tackle, consider the many benefits of Hunter Douglas honeycomb shades.
The first type that you may want to think about when choosing the right shades is the original Duette® Honeycomb Shade. As previously mentioned, the unique construction will immediately begin working to trap unwanted air from entering your home, which can reduce both your monthly energy bill and consumption. As you browse our catalog, you will discover that these are available in a range of fabrics, textures, pleat sizes, and more. Interested in learning more about our color options? Once you stop by our showroom you can contemplate fun looks such as Farmhouse Red and Indigo Mood, or calming neutrals, such as Linen.
Of course, our selection of honeycomb shades extends beyond the Duette®. If you're looking for even more protection, the Duette® Architella® may instead be the perfect fit for your needs as this style features a honeycomb inside of a honeycomb. When choosing the right shades, learning about our Applause® honeycomb shades and Alustra® Collection of Duette® Architella® honeycomb shades could also prove to be beneficial.
For sleek sophistication, explore our range of roman shades. The consistent folds of Vignette® Modern Roman Shades, the inherent energy efficiency of our Solera® Soft Shades, and the curated suite of fabrics within our assortment of Design Studio™ Roman shades are all things to keep in mind when choosing the right shades. The beautiful fabrics that are used to create each piece within our Alustra® Collection of Vignette® Modern Roman Shades can instantly bring new energy to any room inside your residence as well.
In addition to the aforementioned window treatments, we can also help you envision the possibilities of bringing roller shades and woven woods into your home. Regardless of what you have in mind, we are confident that together we can discover the right solutions as you begin choosing the right shades.
