Spring Trends We’re Loving: Honeycomb Shades

Spring is right around the corner, and that means we’re searching for little ways we can renew our lives. Donating old clothes and investing in new staple pieces; changing out pillows and table runners for seasonal patterns; or pulling the weeds from the flower bed are all signs that warmer temperatures and fresh air is on its way. If you want to add lasting value to your home, consider making an investment into upgrading your window treatments. Window fashions don’t simply serve utility purpose—they also give you a chance to express your personal sense of style and flair. This spring, we’re loving honeycomb shades for their versatility and, above all else, premier energy efficiency. At Sierra Verde Home Design Center, we love helping our customers turn their house into a home. Let’s take a deeper dive into this trend we’re excited about for Spring 2022 and how you can make the most of it.

What Are Honeycomb Shades?

Honeycomb shades are a popular style of window treatment. They are a version of classic cellular shades, which are made up of small “honeycomb” cells that are designed to enhance insulation. Honeycomb blinds boast crisp, uniform pleats that will retain their shape throughout heavy use. They add structure and depth to your windows which can create more visually interesting spaces. Honeycomb shades come in a variety of colors, patterns, and textures, making them a versatile choice for homes with varied design schemes throughout each and every room. This window fashion also offers a wide selection of operating systems, making them easy to customize for your home’s unique needs, including touch, cordless, cord loop, and smart/motorized system.

The Benefits of Honeycomb Shades

A great window treatment should not only protect your home from sun and excessive light but look stunning in the process. Honeycomb shades go above and beyond by providing both of these benefits while also improving your home’s insulating power. Your windows can be responsible for up to 30% of your home’s energy losses each year, which adds up in heating and cooling costs over time. Honeycomb blinds bring an innovative honeycomb-shaped design to your windows with an expertly crafted interior that traps air, creating a buffer between your home’s interior and exterior. This results in warmer winters and cooler summers. Systems, like the Duette® collection from Hunter Douglas, boast small light gaps and premium light control.

Take the innovation a step further with motorized shades. Equip your honeycomb blinds with PowerView® Automation from Hunter Douglas and enjoy the refreshing feeling of wielding your entire home’s natural light in the palm of your hand. Adjust your shades with just a swipe of your finger with the PowerView® smartphone app or with the sleek Pebble® remote. Not sure if motorization is right for your home?
