Choose Sheer Window Shades for Your Sunroom

Your sunrooms, patios, and other entertaining areas are fantastic places to enjoy morning coffee. watch the sunset, or have a great time with friends and familt. Since these spaces are specifically designed for enjoying natural light, using sheer window shades that gently diffuse it is a practical and aesthetic choice.

Hunter Douglas Pirouette® Sheer Shades

Pirouette® Sheer Shades are a subtly sophisticated accent for any décor. The single sheer fabric panel backing gives them a minimalist appeal, and the gentle contours of their adjustable opaque fabric vanes add visual interest. Four- and five-inch vane widths look sensational on oversized sunroom or dining room windows, and fabric selections from our collection of over 90 options make designing elegant shades nearly effortless.

Silhouette® Sheer Shades feature S-shaped vanes delicately placed between two translucent panels. The sheer fabric protects from UV damage, and three vane widths are easily incorporated into any aesthetic. If you have a stunning view, consider upgrading to ClearView® Sheers, which feature a specially crafted black rear panel and a black or white front sheer that provides the best view-through while protecting your privacy. Silhouette® Sheer Shades are also available with the Duolite® feature that places an opaque liner behind a sheer front shade to increase its functionality and versatility.

Sheer shades are only part of the sunroom design equation. When styling the rest of the space, focus on creating a comfortable, relaxing vibe. This means layering textures and adding cozy touches, like overstuffed throw pillows. Create coordinating custom accessories with Accents by the Yard™ and order additional yardage of your sheer shade fabric to create matching pillows. When adding rugs, blankets, or cushions, light-colored fabrics will enhance a sunroom's open, airy aesthetic. Pairing them with dark flooring or trim will create a stunning contrast. For rooms with lots of windows, choose casual and comfortable furniture that can withstand consistent sun exposure—wicker is an ideal choice.

Cohesive aesthetics are born when you use a design element continuously throughout your home. Using similar window treatments on all your windows will achieve this goal without making your rooms look identical and generic. When you choose a Hunter Douglas window covering, take advantage of The Whole House Solution™ to coordinate your horizontal and vertical window treatments, taking the guesswork out of finding complementary shades for adjacent spaces. Our sheer shades are available in several specialty shapes and can cover various windows, including arches, circles, French doors, sliding glass doors, and more.
