Silhouette® Window Shades are an extremely popular window treatment choice. If you’re looking for a combination of sheer drapery and window blinds, this could be the type of blinds you’ve been looking for.
BLOCK THE NEIGHBORS. NOT THE LIGHT.
Silhouette® window shades are perfect for letting in the perfect amount of sunlight into your space without compromising on privacy. Not only that, but our team at NY City Blinds can customize the color and material to ensure that your Silhouette® blinds don’t block too much of the sun. Whatever level you’re looking for, we can customize it.
If you’ve been thinking that the Silhouette® style only comes in a thin, white fabric then you
need to check out our full selection of NY City Blinds and materials.
One thing that homeowners and businesses don’t consider when installing window treatments is that UV rays can be damaging even when you are indoors. That’s why we recommend installing fabric with up to 88% protection from UV wavelength light.
Not only that, but Silhouette® shades are the best solution for reducing damage to the color and fabric of the furniture. When left too long in the sun, your furniture could suffer damage that accumulates over the years.
Hunter Douglas is one of the most well-known manufacturers of modern, classy window treatments. And NY City Blinds is the only company you should trust with your installation – because we won’t stop until the job is perfect.
Afford yourself the luxury of having light and privacy at the same time. Silhouette® Window Shadings feature soft, adjustable S-shaped vanes that appear to be floating between two sheer fabrics. This innovative design lets light filter through while also obscuring the outside world’s view into your space.
Silhouette® is a great option for any living space. Transparent or light filtering materials can accommodate rooms with a view, while darker fabrics provide privacy, or help conceal undesirable views.
We provide automated or manual Sheer Shades and modify them to fit any window structure, shape, and size. Our broad selection of trending fabrics, styles, and colors complement any lighting, lifestyle, and design needs.
UV Protection: Our beautiful sheer fabrics softly filter out brightness, glare, and UV rays to protect your furniture and flooring from fading. Depending on your fabric choices, the shadings can filter up to 88% of the sun’s harmful rays.
Privacy & Light Control: A white rear sheer obscures the view into your home, providing daytime privacy even when the vanes are open. To achieve your customized level of privacy and light control, simply tilt the vanes to your desired position.
Room Darkening: Silhouette® Duolite Shadings combine the light-diffusing benefits of a Silhouette® shading with an independently operated roller shade nestled behind it for greater control over incoming light.
Operating system: motorized, cord loop, LiteRise (hand lift), and wand
