What’s New In the World Of Window Coverings For 2020?
The newest thing in window coverings for the year 2020 was that Hunter Douglas’ annual PREMIERES event was a virtual experience! Admittedly, we were wondering how they could possibly pull this off - virtually??? They came… We saw…. and, they conquered it!
Hunter Douglas unveils their new options for window coverings with PREMIERES 2020 - Virtually.
Summing up 2020 PREMIERES with just one wonderful word: OPTIONS! And, we all love options, especially these: All new sample books ( they’ve already arrived ), new operating options, newly expanded sizes, new fabrics, colors, and textures…. We’re highlighting all the new(s) here!
Design Studio
We introduced you to the Hunter Douglas Design Studio in 2019, featuring their new line of drapery, side panels, and roman shades. For 2020 the newest feature in this collection is the addition of motorized drapery hardware, along with new fabrics, new designers, and new creations too.
PowerView Motorized Drapery
The ultimate in function. With PowerView motorized drapery hardware you can control both the drapery and any Hunter Douglas shade with the touch of a button.

INTRODUCING the Featured Artist Series. A collection of beautiful fabrics exclusively designed for Hunter Douglas. The first fabric library in the Artist Series was created by designer and artist Rebecca Atwood.
All of the fabric collections are available as a finished creation in Drapery, Side Panels, Roman Shades, Roller Shades, Decorative Pillows. To complete your look, fabrics are also available by the yard.
when you think of fabric, do you think of woven woods? you should!
Provenance Woven Wood Shades
WHAT’S NEW IN WOVEN WOODS: A liner that operates independently! This innovation has to be one of our all-time favorites as the liner is fabricated from honeycomb fabric that easily hides away when raised and gives you the ultimate in privacy and energy efficiency right at the window when lowered. Choose from light-filtering or room-darkening liners.
did you know that the wider the vane/slat size is the better your view-through will be?

The newest reveal for Pirouette Window Shadings is the option of choosing ClearView which optimizes your view-through to the outside world. Features: Five-inch vanes in new expanded sizes - up to 120” widths & lengths - new fabric options with refreshed colorways and the latest in window covering motorization - Automation with PowerView Plus.
