The New Neutrals for Window Shades
Regarding the color scheme of a home, neutral hues play an essential role. They ground the aesthetic style and offer a canvas for designers to build color schemes. And while their purpose is functional at its core, it's not boring or basic as modern stylists use neutral hues in bold and eye-catching ways. This includes new window treatments, which occupy visually dominant spaces in many home rooms. New neutrals for window shades include bold whites, striking blacks, and the re-imagination of natural wood tones so the shades can enliven home décor while still providing light control and privacy.
Benefits of White Shades
White is the lightest shade on the neutral color spectrum, and in turn, it has a brightening effect on home décor. White reflects light and is an excellent tool for harnessing and dispersing natural or artificial light within the space. It also has a clean, crisp aesthetic to complement its light-loving nature. Some of our favorite treatments that highlight the color white's design power on a space or item are shutters like Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters from Hunter Douglas. Since white has a modern feel regarding the neutral color palette, it can be used to reimagine traditional treatment styles like plantation shutters for contemporary Californian homes. Adding to the contemporary features is the availability of PowerView® Automation for motorized white shutters optimized to catch the light and imbued with the latest style.
Benefits of Black Shades
Among the boldest new neutrals for window shades are black hues. The darker colors are excellent for light control and naturally absorbing sunlight, and the color creates an eye-catching statement. Using black in interior design does require an intentional focus to ensure the color reads fashion-forward and does not overwhelm the space. Accordingly, the more dramatic styles of window shades like Roman shades (Vignette® Roman Shades) or drapery (Carole Fabrics™ Custom Drapes) can handle the richness of blacks. Additionally, the fabric detailing and movement found in drapery and Roman shades ensure the darker hue feels alive and engaging within a room.
Modern Wood Tones
Wood tones are a timeless palette for window treatments, so they also have a place among the new neutrals for window shades. In modern interior décor, we see natural materials like wood reemerging as popular building materials as people seek to reconnect to nature. Wood has a natural charm and character that adds a warm and inviting feel to homes, and it's a versatile material appearing in countless styles of modern window treatments, including shutters (Heritance® Wood Shutters), blinds (Parkland® Wood Blinds), and woven wood shades (Provenance® Woven Wood Shades).
