What are the most popular styles of blinds in Coeur d'Alene?
Here are the most popular styles of window treatments in the Mead area, along with some of their features and benefits:
Motorized Blinds
Home owners and businesses love Motorized Shades, Screens and Blinds for a number of reasons. First, motorization allows you to control light and privacy, even in difficult to access areas, such as 2nd story windows, etc. Second, motorized blinds are built to integrate into your Smart Home – allowing you to control your shades from your smart phone from nearly anywhere in the world. Blinds Etc has the technical know-how to help you select the right system for your home and seamlessly integrate it.
Cellular (Honeycomb) Shades
Also referred to as Honeycomb Shades or Cellular Blinds, “Cellulars“, are also quite popular. Cellular blinds offer the best insulating benefit of various window treatment styles, and can be a good option for “black out” or room darkening applications. Because they can filter light so well, Cellular Shades are also a great protection against harmful UV rays, protecting your furniture and floors from fading. One popular option is “Top Down Bottom Up”, allowing you to lower the top of the blind for more light and view, while still maintaining your privacy.
Shutters
Plantation or Interior Shutters have been popular for years because of the resulting look and ambiance they create. Shutters from Blinds Etc can be custom built to fit arched and angled windows of just about any shape. Add motorization, and shutters can be an integral part of your Smart Home too, opening up your windows to the beautiful views the Coeur d’Alene area has to offer!
Shades
Roman shades, cellular shades, sheer shades, solar shades and even woven wood or grass shades are all considered “window shades“. Because of the wide range of styles and functions, these window treatments are also quite popular in the Coeur d’Alene area. Whether you’re wanting to darken a room or lightly filter the sun’s rays, there is a window shade that can do the job beautifully.
Sheer Shades
When you have views as beautiful as we do in the Inland Northwest, you definitely want to take full advantage. Sheer Shades are a great choice for homes in our area, as they help filter light and gain privacy when you need it, while allowing you to enjoy your view. Blinds Etc is proud to feature the widest selection of sheer shadings from Hunter Douglas, Norman, Graber, Comfortex and Skandia.
Blinds
There are a lot of styles of “Blinds” including vertical blinds, aluminum blinds “Venetian” blinds, wood blinds, faux wood blinds and more. Typically, a blind has slats that open and close, whether vertical or horizontal. You can control the amount of light filtration, privacy and how much view you want by how much you open and close your blinds. Motorization is quite popular with blinds in our area as it takes control to a whole new level for your smart home or office.
Custom Drapery & Curtains
Custom Drapes, or Curtains can be custom tailored to meet your room’s exact decor and view management needs. As a stand-alone window treatment, custom draperies can give your room a level of modern sophistication or old-world elegance. Or, combine that look with the function of Roman shades, vertical blinds, roll screens or horizontal blinds to maximize your control over privacy and sunlight. Like other window covering styles, drapes can also be motorized, adding a layer of comfort and convenience to your smart home or office and making your drapes remote controlled from your smartphone, anywhere in the world.
