Soft Neutrals

The pandemic kept millions of people still in their homes for the first time in their lives. This time of pause inspired millions of people to reconsider their living spaces and how they want to feel in those spaces. So it’s no surprise that a huge trend in window treatments for the upcoming year revolves around soft neutrals for updated, modern homes.

Soft neutrals just feel nice. They inspire calm, tranquility, and relaxation in a time when the world can feel out of control. Neutrals lean towards sophistication while also looking modern and subtle. 

If you’re looking for an airy, natural light type of look, we suggest our cellular window shades in taupe, light gray, khaki variations, or ivory.

Our cellular window shades are affordable, energy efficient, and come with four lighting control options. Cellular shades are also cordless, making them a great choice for families with young children and pets.

Monochromatic and Minimal

Monochromatic, by definition, is the use of multiple hues of the same color. When it comes to modern window treatments, we see monochromatic shades on the docket. You can create tints by adding shades of white, or curate shades with hints of gray or a darker hue.

Both create a depth that can be minimal, and at the same time, impactful. Going monochromatic makes it easy to support the color of your walls and home decor, too. 

Make a statement with monochromatic roller shades. This kind of window treatment is absolutely timeless and satisfies those who like a minimal design. Roller shades are simple, one-sheet roll-down blinds that can either be dressed up or dressed down. They can act as a blank canvas in your home or be the life of the party. 

Roller shades are probably the most versatile window treatment on the market. 

You can layer roller shades with drapes, utilize different fabrics and designs, or pair them with complementary drapes. We offer over 240 different fabric options, organic patterns, with colors that pop. The possibilities are endless. All you need is a clear idea of what you’re after.

Nature Inspired Elements

Natural wood blinds have a specific kind of energy to them.

There is something about wood blinds that brings an element of nature into the house with you. Whether it’s a boho style you’re craving, calming contemporary, or a more industrial and fine-line look; you just can’t go wrong with wood and wood textures.

 

The best part? Wood blinds can stand the test of time.

 

But so can composite blinds.

 

Composite blinds are popular because they’re affordable and look like real wood. And they feel like real wood. Not just physically, but energetically. Our composite blinds are created for comfort, durability, and style—all while keeping furniture and flooring safe from the sun. 

 

This cordless, modern window treatment allows families to enjoy the mood of an outdoor space inside their homes—without paying real-wood prices. We offer this window treatment in 80 colors with various textures, all designed to support pre-existing decor and flooring. 

 

Our composite blinds are also great for rooms that experience high moisture. Think laundry rooms, bathrooms, kitchens—anywhere with steam. The composite blinds never warp, change shape, turn color, or shrink. They’re easy to clean and look amazing, too.

 

For those who really want to bring the outdoors inside, we suggest giving our bamboo shades consideration. Bamboo shades offer a modern home a sense of grounding, calmness, and relaxation. Our bamboo shades are 100% organic and are sourced from eco-friendly materials. 

 

If you love rooms with soft natural light, this could be the perfect modern window treatment for you.
