Why Choose Designer Solar Shades?

UV Protection + Opacity

Solar shade fabrics are specifically engineered to preserve outdoor views while helping protect your home’s interior from harmful UV rays. These shades provide exceptional glare control, reducing harsh sunlight on screens, furniture, flooring, and artwork without completely blocking natural light.

With five openness factors available, you can customize the ideal balance of view-through, privacy, and sunlight management. Whether you want maximum visibility to the outdoors or increased daytime privacy, Designer Solar Shades can be tailored to fit your lifestyle and lighting preferences.

Dual Shades

Versatile light control is one of the biggest advantages of Designer Solar Shades. Available with a dual shade system, these window coverings allow you to enjoy filtered natural light and preserved views during the day while maintaining the flexibility for greater privacy when needed.

Lower the front solar shade to reduce glare and manage sunlight without sacrificing your view. When you need more darkness, simply lower the secondary blackout shade to create one of the most effective room darkening window treatments available. Both shades share the same headrail, maintaining the clean, streamlined appearance of roller shades.

Sustainable Fabrics

We’re proud to offer sustainable fabric options within the Hunter Douglas Designer Solar Shades collection. GreenScreen® Sea-Tex™ fabrics are made from yarn produced using recovered coastal and marine plastics, helping transform waste into beautiful, high-performance window coverings.

In addition to supporting environmental initiatives, these innovative fabrics provide the same excellent glare control, UV protection, and view preservation that make solar shades a popular choice for Texas homes. It’s one of the meaningful ways Window Fashions of Texas and Hunter Douglas continue working toward a more sustainable future.
