Discover Hunter Douglas Green

For over 60 years, Hunter Douglas has been creating and offering natural and appealing ways to harness heat and light. In the winter, heat leaves through the window when you need it, yet becomes trapped inside in the summer when you don't. Heat loss and gain drive our energy usage up. It can be felt in our monthly utility bills and calculated in our collective carbon emissions.

Today, Hunter Douglas is committed to lowering our energy usage and implementing other changes that will ultimately reduce our carbon footprint by 20%. Our overriding goal, though, is to help our customers everywhere save energy the natural way by effectively channeling and exploiting the natural power of the sun.

THE INCREDIBLE POWER OF COLOR IN HUNTER DOUGLAS BLINDS & SHUTTERS HELP EXPRESS INDIVIDUALITY WITH HOMEOWNERS

The right color brings out the beauty of furnishings and enhances a room’s décor. Silhouette window shades and Vignette roman shades coordinate beautifully with current trends.

Barbara Schirmeister color design consultant for Hunter Douglas defines the 2010 palette as combinations of classic and contemporary, cool and warm, quiet and vibrant and stable and unpredictable. When asked for the number one color combination for the year, Barbara stated, “A gamut of blues (Including both blue-greens and purple hues) balanced with warm yellows, oranges and pinks. Barbara also mentioned these important trends: layering and texture, metallic’s, less of matching colors and more unexpected pairings."

Today’s top colors:
Purple – grayed out violet, redder plumbs
Blue is new green – soft watery blues and vibrant sky blues
Grays and cooled down browns. Yellow for energy.
Brighter accents – oranges, turquoises and teals, red and yellow abound
White is now a business color
Mauve is an older color – works as an accent
