One trick designers use to build visual interest when styling new window treatments is to balance different textural components within one bigger treatment scheme. Using both hard and soft shades together in a layered window fashion produces a treatment with textural dimension and depth. Additionally, homeowners benefit from the enhanced features of hard and soft shades working together to control external environmental factors and enhance interior design aesthetic. Here are some of our favorite pairings of hard and soft shades for different aesthetics and situations in the home.
Combine the clean, hard lines of interior shutters with the flowing fabrics of drapery, and you get window fashions with striking contrast that still work in perfect harmony. The drapes add movement and grace, and the shutters bring linearity, control, and grounding. This pairing of hard and soft shades works in bedrooms, dining rooms, and living rooms thanks to the many textile options for drapery and complementary neutral tones in shutters.
Is there a view from your home that you absolutely love? Maybe a big picture window that lets in light and overlooks a spectacular stretch of your surroundings? If you’re looking to dress a window such as this, the paring of hard blinds with soft side panels can create a framing window fashion that provides protection, privacy, and yet also maintains the view. This is thanks largely to the very open design of both side panels and blinds. Blinds offer view-through visibility and can both block light or provide privacy, and when needed they can pull open completely to provide unimpeded views. Side panels offer a soft framing element to balance the hard blinds and block any light leaks around the sides of your blinds when they are fully closed. And with hundreds of fabrics to choose from for side panels you can customize the look to match, coordinate with, or contrast existing décor.
Because Roman shades have a very sculpted look with rich fabric folds, they pair well with the controlled look of a custom cornice. Window toppers add a height dimension to the treatment and polish the final look by hiding any hardware. Work with our design team to create a custom cornice and accompanying Roman shade so the one-of-a-kind treatment will be tailored to your home’s unique style. And by utilizing advance operating systems for the Roman shades like PowerView® Automation or the Top-Down/Bottom-Up systems you can optimize light control without sacrificing the modern aesthetic.
Our favorite combination from Hunter Douglas: Vignette® Roman Shades and custom cornices.
