Vignette® Roman Shades: Crisp, Cool Luxury
The Hunter Douglas Roman Shades you’ll find at Laura's Draperies, Bedspreads, and More are a stylish and energy-efficient window treatment. These luxurious Roman shades for windows keep rooms cooler during Connecticut summers. While ceiling fans and cold drinks help, our selection of custom shades can make a meaningful difference in how comfortable your home feels all season long.
Today, we’re excited to shine a spotlight on these exceptional window treatments. Whether you need to cover a single window or windows throughout your entire home, Hunter Douglas Roman Shades can add plenty of stunning appeal in any room they’re in. Here are just a few reasons why these are one of our favorite window coverings.
How Roman Shades for Windows Affect Indoor Temperature
Sunlight streaming through unprotected windows is one of the biggest contributors to indoor heat gain during summer months. In fact, heat gain through windows accounts for roughly 30% of home cooling needs, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Strategically covering your windows blocks solar heat before it ever enters your living space, so choosing treatments that balance light control with insulation is worth your attention.
The Cooling Power of Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades
Vignette® Roman Shades use a single, continuous piece of fabric and no cords. This design stops the shades from sagging or bunching up — because they lie flat and even against the window, they do a better job of blocking outside heat. Plus, this tailored fit gives the room a clean, elegant aesthetic.
We customize these shades in a range of fabrics and opacities, from sheer to room-darkening.
- For rooms that face south or west and get hit by the hot afternoon sun, room-darkening fabrics can block a lot of that heat.
- If you want a bright, airy feeling, lighter fabrics will gently filter sunlight while still reducing heat and glare.
Do You Carry Other Roman Shades?
Yes! We also offer these Roman shade styles:
- Provenance® Woven Wood Shades are artistically woven from organic materials and offer a Roman shade option.
- Alustra® Woven Textures Roman Shades feature exclusive, elegant fabrics sourced from around the world.
- Carole Fabrics™ Roman Shades offer an unprecedented selection of over 4,000 fabric/color choices.
Do You Have Motorized Roman Shades for Windows?
Yes. Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation is compatible with its Roman shades and increases their efficiency. Program your Vignette® Roman Shades to lower automatically when the afternoon sun is at its peak, then rise again as evening temperatures drop. Then, your home stays consistently comfortable without any effort on your part, and your cooling system gets a welcome break.
