New Take on Room-Darkening Shades

By Dave Coleman

Room darkening shades are perfect for bedrooms, media rooms, and any room where you want to completely block light. One down-side to room-darkening shades is that they’re either closed and blocking all the light, or open and letting in all the light. To solve this challenge, the innovators at Hunter Douglas developed the Silhouette® A Deux Window Shadings system, now available in the Wilkes Barre PA area. These window coverings combine a Silhouette shading in front with a room darkening roller shade in the back on a single headrail. You get the best of both worlds – the beauty of a light-filtering fabric shade and the room-darkening capabilities of a roller shade. Take a look:

A Deux Light Filtering Sheers: Silhouette Shades

On the room-facing side of the A Deux system is the beautiful Silhouette shade. The vanes of Silhouette® window shades magically float between two sheers. Simply tilt the vanes to achieve your desired level of light and privacy. With no cords or tapes, the sheer facings allow you to view through the vanes to the outside, while maintaining a discreet level of privacy. The sheers soften sunlight to create warmth without too much brightness. Choose from 2” and 3” vane Silhouette fabrics, including Alustra products, to be paired with a room-darkening roller shade option. Silhouette shades are available in a wide variety of colors and fabrics.

Room Darkening Shade SystemA Deux Light Blocking Roller Shades

With the A Deux system, a high quality Hunter Douglas roller shade shares a headrail cassette with a Silhouette shade. With the roller shade in the back, you can enjoy complete room darkening when you want it — perfect for media rooms and bedrooms. Roller shades also protect your furniture, flooring and artwork from fading with at least 75% protection from harmful UV rays.
