Key Features of Silhouette Shades
Dual Shades for Complete Light Control
Looking for even more flexibility from your window coverings? Hunter Douglas Silhouette dual shades offer a powerful combination of style and function. These innovative sheer window shades feature a light-filtering front shade paired with a secondary blackout roller shade—all within a single headrail for a clean, streamlined look.
Each shade operates independently, giving you full control throughout the day. Lower the sheer shade to enjoy soft, diffused light while maintaining your outdoor view. When you need room darkening, privacy, or glare reduction, simply lower the blackout shade behind it for complete coverage.
This dual-shade system is ideal for bedrooms, media rooms, and large windows where flexible light control is essential. Learn more about dual shades for complete light control and how they can transform your space.
Halo Feature for Enhanced Light Control
The exclusive Halo feature on Hunter Douglas Silhouette shades introduces a new level of precision for light control and ambiance. This innovative design expands how the fabric vanes adjust, giving you more flexibility than traditional sheer window shades.
With standard sheer shades, vanes tilt downward to reduce glare and filter incoming light. With the Halo feature, the vanes can also tilt upward—allowing you to direct natural light toward the ceiling. This creates a brighter, more evenly illuminated space while still maintaining your view and privacy.
You can also fine-tune vane positioning throughout the day—tilting slightly open to guide light inward, downward to soften glare, or upward for a gentle, reflective glow. This level of control makes Silhouette shades ideal for living rooms, open floor plans, and large windows where balanced lighting enhances both comfort and design.
Pair with motorized Silhouette shades to easily adjust light throughout the day using a remote, smartphone app, or smart home system.
ClearView® vs Traditional Sheer Fabrics
Hunter Douglas Silhouette shades are known for their ability to filter natural light while maintaining beautiful outdoor views. With the introduction of ClearView® sheer fabrics, homeowners in Reno can now enjoy an even sharper, more detailed connection to the outdoors.
Traditional sheer fabrics create a soft, diffused glow with a neutral, slightly hazy appearance. In contrast, ClearView fabrics use a darker sheer material to enhance clarity—delivering crisp, vibrant views while still providing light control and daytime privacy.
Both options offer exceptional performance, and the right choice depends on your design goals. Whether you prefer a soft, ambient glow or a more defined view, custom Silhouette shades can be tailored to fit your space and style.
