Choices for Window Treatments on Skylights


Hunter Douglas skylight window coverings provide rooms with a brighter, more open and airy feeling often not possible with standard windows. However, skylights also have the potential to allow sunlight in that can often overheat your rooms.

Our Simplicity™ skylight system available on our Duette®, Duette Architella® and Applause® honeycomb shades, is a manual lifting system specifically manufactured for rectangular windows and especially suited for skylights. Some fabrics and sizes do offer the option of upgrading to PowerRise 2.0 that will allow more ease for opening and closing your skylight shades by remote control.

Bill Cole from Georgia Blinds and Interiors talks about the choices for window treatments on skylights:

  • For greater control of overhead sun, these skylight systems brings the light diffusion and energy efficiency benefits of honeycomb shades to skylight openings.
  • Applause is a good choice when you are looking for the least cost up front
  • Duette Architella provides the most savings long term by its high energy efficient design
  • Greater light diffusion means you’ll experience less glare on television and computer screens.
  • Side-by-side mounting of shades allows for coverage of windows measuring more than 48 square feet.

As with all specialty shapes, we advise that you consult with one of our expert designers at our local Hunter Douglas Gallery Showroom when deciding which product will work best for your skylight application. 404-252-6991

Metals Continue to Shine in 2012


After visiting the Atlanta Home Furnishings Mart this weekend, it seems that metals will continue to shine in 2012 but with soft matte overtones. “Brushed gold was everywhere, bringing a golden versus shiny glow. Metallic and pearlized colors will abound in home accessories and fashion alike.” Also, all metals will step up, including bronze, copper, platinum and silver, but gold will be the frontrunner — showing up in everything from wall decor and decorative accessories to upholstery, bedding and rugs!

Come by our Interior Design showroom, Georgia Blinds and Interiors, in Sandy Springs and have one of our designers assist you by incorporating metals into your look!
