Silhouette Shades

Premium Design

Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Shades are among the most recognized and celebrated window treatments in the industry, and for good reason. Their signature floating fabric vanes suspend between two sheer panels, creating a distinctive layered look that softens light beautifully while maintaining privacy and an outdoor view. At Seattle Blinds, we carry the full Silhouette® collection and our design consultants bring samples directly to your home so you can see exactly how each fabric performs in your specific light conditions before you commit.

Light & Privacy Options

Silhouette® shades give you exceptional flexibility in how you manage light and privacy throughout the day. With the vanes open, the two sheer panels diffuse incoming light while you retain a soft view to the outside, filtering Seattle's natural light into a warm, even glow. When you close the vanes, the shades provide full room privacy without requiring blackout liners or secondary treatments. This makes Silhouette® particularly well-suited to Seattle living rooms and bedrooms where conditions change from morning to evening.

Key Benefits

Even when the vanes are fully open, the dual sheer panels on Silhouette® shades filter up to 88% of harmful UV rays, providing continuous protection for your floors, furniture, and artwork without requiring you to close the shade or sacrifice natural light. For Seattle homes with valuable hardwood floors or statement furnishings in sun-exposed rooms, this passive protection is one of the most practical benefits of the Silhouette® system. Seattle Blinds can help you match the right opacity level to each room's UV exposure and your lighting preferences.

Protect Your Furniture From UV Rays

Silhouette® shades filter solar heat as well as UV radiation, helping to keep south and west-facing rooms cooler during Seattle's warm summer afternoons without blocking the light entirely. The dual sheer construction acts as a thermal buffer at the glass, reducing the direct heat load on your living spaces while still allowing a soft, filtered view to the outdoors. Seattle Blinds can walk you through which Silhouette® configurations offer the greatest solar and UV protection for each room in your home based on window orientation and how you use the space.
