Our Top Three Window Treatment Choices for Summer

Blind & Shutter Gallery • July 1, 2023

As the saying goes, "Set wide the window and drink the day!" Summer is the season to do this, as it boasts long hours of light, energy, and spectacular views. While natural light is what the doctor ordered for our mental well-being, it also comes with harmful rays that can damage your interior décor. At Blind & Shutter Gallery, we have three favorite shades by Hunter Douglas that are perfect for the summer season.

Sheer Magnificence with Luminette® Sheer Panels

Luminette® Privacy Sheers are a combination of sheers and blinds perfect for expansive windows, sliding doors, French doors, and side lights. Made from interchanging fabric and sheer vanes, they offer complete privacy and UV protection when needed while instilling a soft flowing ambiance in your room.

Offered in a wide variety of colors and textures ranging from soft whites, pale blues, and natural earth tones, these sheer panels can be the perfect backdrop to the rest of your interior design.

Invite the Sky in with Skyline® Gliding Window Panels

Skyline® Gliding Window Panels are generous vertical panels offered in either 11 ½" or 17" wide. With a bottom weight, they hang with a smooth elegance offering see-through privacy as well as spectacular views when open.


These panels are perfect for windows of any size and can also be used for large glass doors. You can easily manipulate the light with smart automation, a cord loop, or a wand.



These panels can be used as a room divider when mounted to the ceiling. Coming in over 450 fabric options, they will add a perfect summery glow to your room.

A Soft Shimmer with Silhouette® Window Shadings

Silhouette® Window Shadings are comprised of interchanging vanes of opaque and sheer fabric that allow for privacy but do not deter your view. With the shadings drawn, you can easily see out, but passers-by cannot see in, giving you the best of both worlds.



These shadings can be easily fitted to a wide variety of window shapes, including angled, arched, and trapezoid. They offer strong protection from UV fading while instilling an airy summer-like feeling in your home.
