Window coverings are emerging with the times. As sustainability and technology continue to evolve, so are window treatments. Our finger is on the pulse of the latest window covering trends and industry updates. Now, window treatments are more energy-efficient than ever, designed to make our lives easier, and even keep the air in our homes cleaner.
We've reached out to our team to find out which window coverings are the most innovative and most sustainable. As you prepare for home renovation projects this summer or refreshing your home this spring, you'll have the most up-to-date information on which window treatments will make your daily routines much easier. Check out our list of window coverings that not only look good but make life a bit less hectic.
Most Innovative
If we could surgically implant our devices into our hands, some of us actually would. Technology is rapidly evolving with artificial intelligence and major developments being made in home automation. We naturally crave convenience and immediate gratification. Imagine programming your blinds or shades to open and close every morning by using an app on your phone. Window coverings have that capability now. Check out our recommendation of the most innovative motorized window treatments below.

Most Eco-Friendly
Simply Eco Cellular Shade
The conversation of sustainability is at the forefront now more than ever. People want to live healthier lifestyles and are looking for ways they can help preserve the earth. Small, everyday changes lead to big differences. For example, our Simply Eco Cellular Shade is made from recycled water bottles and saves on energy. We love this shade because its unique honeycomb design gives your home added insulation, making your house less drafty and your floors less cold during the winter.

Top Window Treatment
Faux Wood Blinds
You know them, you love them, and you probably have them in your home: We're talking about Faux Wood Blinds. They are by far the most popular window covering because of their timeless look, practicality, and durability.
Faux Wood Blinds are made with a PVC coating making them a great choice for high-humidity areas like a bathroom. If you're curious about which window coverings influencers are dying to have in their homes, we had the opportunity to work with a few and find out.
