Hunter Douglas Sonnette® Roller Shades near Concord, California (CA)

If one of your resolutions is to elevate your interior design in the new year, did you know that one of the easiest ways to upgrade your home is to upgrade your window treatments? At Cole’s Interiors Design Center, we’re here to explore some of the new year’s upcoming window treatment trends to help you bring your home into its next era. Some of our favorite trends include:

Choosing Energy-Efficient Window Treatments

Are you ready to leave high energy bills behind in 2024? Then you’re in luck! One of the up-and-coming window treatment trends we’ve noticed is a move toward more energy efficient window treatments. Since one’s windows are the main culprit for home energy loss, it’s important to make sure that your windows are properly insulated. Hunter Douglas offers a variety of custom energy-efficient window treatments that keeps your home comfortable all your long without raising your energy bills. Our favorites include:

  • Duette® Cellular Shades: A classic energy-efficient shade, this window treatment features a unique honeycomb cell structure that traps air and in, turn, reduces heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer.
  • Sonnette® Roller Shades: Combining the sleek look of a roller shade with the energy efficiency of a cellular shade, these window treatments offer the best of both styles for a  functional and aesthetic upgrade for homes that prefer a modern style.

Going Cordless

Tricky to operate, often unreliable, and a total safety hazard for homes with small children and pets, corded window treatments are something many homeowners prefer to leave in the past. In fact, in 2024, a new safety standard went into the books that effectively transitions most window treatments from corded options into those with hidden cords, cordless options, or other tensioning devices. That’s why another one of the top window treatment trends we’ve noticed gaining speed is cordless styles. Since no two homes are alike, and neither are their operational needs, Hunter Douglas offers several cordless operating, including:

  • The LiteRise® System: This system makes raising and lowering window treatments effortless. Simply push up to raise or pull down to lower. No need for dangling, hazardous cords.
  • The UltraGlide® Wand: Featuring a retractable, ergonomic wand that maintains a consistent length, this operating system lets you raise or lower your shades with a simple pull. No muss, no fuss. 

Embracing Smart Automation

As the saying goes, it’s better to work smarter than to work harder! Modern window treatments are designed to make enjoying sun, shade, or privacy easily. With the trend toward cordless design, many homes are also choosing to enjoy the features of automation. This is especially true when it comes to the innovative PowerView® Automation system by Hunter Douglas. With the simple tap of the PowerView® app, press of a button on the Pebble® remote, or the sound of your voice via most smart home assistants, this system adjusts your window treatments exactly how you wish. You can even schedule your window treatments to open, close, or adjust throughout the day without you lifting a finger.
