Cellular Shades and Modern Interior Design
Modern interior design incorporates clean lines, natural materials, and geometric shapes. The goal is a simple but elegant lifestyle. Other characteristics of the style include natural light and an open floor plan. Many styles are offshoots of this main style, including modern farmhouse and mid-century modern.
The clean, straight lines of Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades make them a great fit for the modern style. You can select a semi-sheer shade for ample light or combine it with a room-darkening shade for better light control. To make them work, select natural-fiber fabric in earthy or neutral tones.
Cellular Shades and Minimalist Interior Design
Minimalist interior design emphasizes functionality, simplicity, calm, and clean lines. Think “less is more,” and utilize natural materials, neutral color palettes, open spaces, and clean lines. Choose fewer higher-quality items that fit your aesthetic and offer other benefits, such as hidden storage.
Duette® Cellular Shades work well with a minimalist style because they feature clean, straight lines, a low profile, and are extremely functional. To complement your minimalist style, select:
- Natural, woven fabrics
- Neutral colors
- Dual cellular shades with one semi-sheer fabric and one room-darkening fabric
- PowerView® Automation
Cellular Shades and Transitional Interior Design
Transitional interior design marries traditional and modern styles. You’ll see curved lines and straight lines, geometric shapes, varied textures from various natural elements, and neutral palettes with subtle pops of color.
Duette Cellular Shades fit this style because they’re available in neutral colors and textured fabrics. They provide versatile light control and energy efficiency. To make them work for your transitional home, choose smaller cell sizes, neutral colors, like gray or white, and light-filtering fabrics.
Cellular Shades and Contemporary Interior Design
Contemporary interior design is constantly evolving along with changing fashions, styles, and trends. You can make it work easier when you choose neutral color palettes for walls and window treatments, clean lines, natural materials, and natural light.
Duette Cellular Shades are a good fit because they’re efficient, effective, and you can layer them. For your contemporary style, select a neutral color in a natural fabric that diffuses light. This allows you to update as you see fit, since you have a solid foundation. Select a trendy drapery fabric that uses patterns and colors that appear in your home in other ways, like in artwork, pillows, and rugs, to tie it all together.
