At Innovative Openings, we believe the most beautiful window treatments are the ones that effortlessly balance style and functionality. This stunning Boulder County project, led by our talented window covering specialist Kally Kilen, is a perfect example of how thoughtfully selected Hunter Douglas products can transform a space.
Throughout the home, clean-lined roller shades and soft Roman and sheer shades create a design that feels both modern and timeless. Each room was approached with the homeowner’s unique needs in mind, resulting in a cohesive window treatment plan that enhances comfort, privacy, and everyday living.
A Primary Suite Designed for Privacy, Views, and Comfort
The primary suite presented a unique challenge: providing privacy without sacrificing the breathtaking mountain views that make Colorado living so special. At the same time, the homeowners wanted the flexibility of room-darkening light control in the bedroom while maintaining a warm, inviting atmosphere.
To achieve this balance, Kally selected Hunter Douglas Vignette® Modern Roman Shades with PowerView® Automation. The top-down/bottom-up functionality allows the homeowners to maintain privacy from neighboring homes while still enjoying expansive views of the surrounding landscape.
In the bedroom, a room-darkening fabric creates the ideal environment for restful sleep, while the en-suite features a light-filtering fabric that fills the space with soft, diffused natural light.
One of the reasons Vignette shades were the perfect choice for this project is their elegant appearance. Their soft, structured folds offer the beauty of a traditional Roman shade while maintaining a more tailored, streamlined look that complements the home’s contemporary architecture.
Living Spaces and Kitchen Focused on Light Management
The great room and kitchen feature expansive western-facing windows that flood the home with natural light. While beautiful, these large windows can also create challenging glare, excessive heat gain, and UV exposure throughout the day.
For these spaces, Kally selected Roller Shades in a soft neutral fabric that gently disperses incoming light while preserving the home’s bright and airy feel. The minimalist profile of the roller shades complements the clean architectural lines of the home, while the black metal fascia blends seamlessly with the home’s black window hardware for a sophisticated, cohesive finish.
In addition to improving comfort, the roller shades help protect valuable furnishings from UV damage, including a beautiful piano positioned near the windows. The shades also significantly reduce glare on televisions, computers, and other screens, making the spaces more enjoyable for both relaxation and work.
A Dining Room Designed to Make a Statement
The dining room features some of the home’s largest windows, calling for a solution that would be both functional and visually impactful.
For this space, Kally selected Hunter Douglas Pirouette® Window Shadings, a product known for its ability to beautifully control light while creating a stunning architectural statement. The innovative fabric vanes can be adjusted to provide varying levels of privacy and light, allowing the homeowners to customize the atmosphere throughout the day.
When open, the vanes softly diffuse natural light and preserve views to the outside. When closed, they provide increased privacy and light control while maintaining a sophisticated, elegant appearance.
To further enhance everyday convenience, the shades are powered by PowerView® Automation, allowing the homeowners to effortlessly adjust their shades with the touch of a button or schedule automated scenes throughout the day.
The result is a window treatment that feels as thoughtfully designed as the room itself, creating a focal point that elevates the entire dining experience.
