With our wide selection of window blinds, shades, shutters and draperies, the options available to you regarding window treatments are limited only to your imagination. Many of the most popular contemporary designs feature sleek, modern looks that are at once sophisticated and fun.

In this article, we’ll take a look at some of the biggest window shade trends of Summer 2018!

1. Natural Window Treatments

2018 is the year of organic materials. As cultural tastes begin to gravitate towards a more environmentally-conscious outlook, it stands to reason that homeowners would begin purchasing equally environmentally friendly window treatments in droves.

Woven wood shades -made from organic materials like grass and bamboo- have made a big splash this year in the world of window treatments. Consider these natural materials to give your home an earthy, elegant tone.

2. Patterned Window Treatments

This year, we’re seeing less and less solid colors in favor of bold and exciting patterns. Geometric shapes are a particularly popular choice that will give your home an ultra-contemporary look.

Great for giving your room a focal point, pattern window treatments are a perfect way for homeowners to get creative decorating their homes, and make for a fascinating conversation starter.

3. Natural Light

When your window treatment filters in natural light, it saves you money by eliminating the need for artificial light in the room. As such, in the modern, cost-conscious, eco-conscious world, sheer fabrics have become an immensely popular choice in 2018.

Sheer fabrics fill your home with beautiful, soft, natural light to enter your home while still allotting you sufficient privacy from the outside world. And sheers are available in a wide variety of colors, including vibrant greens, blues, and pinks.

Have some fun with color and give the natural light entering your home a recognizable tint, mixing things up from the traditional white and off-white. Find a color that compliments the palette of your room and accentuate it with our brilliant, unique sheers!

4. Jewel Tone Window Treatments

Whether you opt for a deep red or a subtle blue, jewel tones are on-trend in home decor for 2018. Provide your home with a luxurious, sophisticated atmosphere when you select from these deep colors. For a cool, modern look, consider matching a jewel tone window treatment with soft metallics, like platinum or nickel.

5. Layers, Layers, Layers

Give your home an air of mystery and elegance with a layered window treatment. A popular modern choice to pair your sheers with a set of black-out shades, giving your home a depth of space and increased functionality.

Let in natural light whenever you wish, and provide yourself with privacy at your convenience, offering yourself the best of both worlds. Perfect for bedrooms, bathrooms, and other parts of the home in need of the most privacy, layers are the perfect way to have your cake and eat it, too.
