Sheer Simplicity

The demand for airy and light window treatments continues to grow, with sheer fabrics offering a tranquil and ethereal ambiance. Sheer curtains provide a soft diffusion of light, creating a calm and inviting atmosphere. While plain, gauzy sheers are a classic choice, textured, embroidered, or striped options add an extra layer of visual interest, ensuring that simplicity doesn’t mean boring.

Hunter Douglas sheer options include the Luminette and Silhouette sheer shades, which alow for perfect light diffusion with a more structured look than sheer panels.
