Modern Black Window Shades
What’s the best color for your window shades? It’s such a broad question with what can seem like an endless rainbow of answers, but settling on a specific hue for your shades is incredibly important for establishing the mood and aesthetic tone of a room. For many, the use of neutral colors for window treatments is optimal. That way, the shades can be used as an anchored base upon which interior design can be layered. But don’t mistake the word “neutral” for boring. Neutral hues can be used in striking ways to create backdrops that are visually dynamic and crafted to heighten any number of design aesthetics.
Take, for example, modern black window shades. Black is a neutral tone, so like all neutral tones, it goes with a vast array of complementary colors. It can be used in many different ways, from bold focal points to soft accent pieces. And it’s appropriate for interior design aesthetics of all manners with roots in the classic black and white color pairing and modern designers utilizing the hue in chic, new ways.
Modern Black Window Shades by Hunter Douglas
In the Hunter Douglas collection of window treatments, you’ll find a variety of state-of-the-art styles that can be customized using black as a primary or accent hue. Each distinct style of window treatment has its own benefits beyond visual aesthetics, including environmental control and enhanced privacy.
Black Shutters
While classic plantation shutters often come in in wood-based neutral tones (think shades of tan and brown), modern shutters often utilize other tones on the neutral spectrum, including white and black. Customizing black shutters with larger louver sizes helps modernize this classic treatment for contemporary design aesthetics. But no matter the color you use, the benefits of this particular style of modern window covering include the easy control of light and natural airflow.
Black Drapery
For a dramatic and dynamic use of black in window shades, turn to the visual stylings of full drapery. The rich fabric folds of drapes add movement, depth, and texture to the color, creating one-of-a-kind treatments that command attention. The full coverage of drapery also affords homeowners a great deal of privacy and light control, especially with lined drapes. This style of modern black window shades also has the option for motorization for easy use and convenient control.
Black Roller Shades
Roller shades offer a unique benefit for modern black window shades in that they have a fabric base but with a flat front. This creates a wonderful canvas for patterns and prints, especially geometric prints, as there are no folds or seams to interrupt the design. For styles of roller shades in the Hunter Douglas Design Studio™ collection, you can choose from exclusive fabric collections by modern textile artists like Rebecca Atwood, Marcie Bronkar, and Seema Krish for designer style in your home.
