As homeowners, we strive to find the perfect neighborhood that aligns with our lifestyle, be it a busy city street, a slower-paced family-oriented community, or a sociable subdivision where everyone gathers for friendly barbecues.
At Mill Design & Blinds, we recognize that schedules vary and that we can't control the noise levels created by our neighbors. To combat unwanted noise, selecting sound-absorbing window treatments is the ideal solution for crafting a tranquil home environment that accommodates your sleep and work routines.
When it comes to sound absorption, the window treatment that will perform this function the best is going to be ones that utilize thick fabrics and materials. Duette® Cellular Shades from Hunter Douglas, for example, are built with a layer of honeycomb-shaped cells that insulate your home with a hidden pocket of air that protects against both sound and temperature, ensuring your space will be both more energy-efficient and protected from unwanted noise.
Not everyone’s home may work best with a fabric window treatment, though. That’s why we always recommend choosing the best window treatment for your living space. Hunter Douglas interior shutters fit tight to the window and are an excellent way to absorb sonic energy and create a calming environment inside the home.
If you’re truly concerned with sound-absorbing functions, consider pairing any of our Hunter Douglas window treatments with Design Studio™ Side Panels and Drapes. Custom drapery adds not only an extra layer of protection and sound-absorption to your window, it’s also a great way to express your home’s interior style.
Our extensive range of industry-leading Hunter Douglas sound-absorbing window treatments is designed to effortlessly establish a serene atmosphere in every area of your living space. From innovative cellular shades to classic wooden shutters, we carry styles and materials to suit every space.
One of our favorite parts of being a Hunter Douglas dealer is that there are so many incredible options if you’re looking for a window treatment that will help keep out unwanted sounds. Whether you’re looking to add to your existing window treatments with a layer of drapery or install a complete window revamp, you can choose from a wide collection of shutters, shades, and blinds to find the best solution for your home.
Below is a list of our top recommended window treatments for maximum sound absorption:
Choosing a window treatment consisting of a thick, durable fabric, and pairing it with a thick curtain will always absorb the maximum amount of sound. You can also pair your window treatments with other sound-absorbing interior features such as carpet, fabric furnishings, and area rugs in particularly noisy areas to absorb sound further.
Our favorite combination for ultimate sound absorption is combining thick Design Studio™ Custom Drapes with Duette® Cellular Shades or a gorgeous set of interior shutters from Hunter Douglas. These two solutions working in tandem will have so many benefits for your home, including huge energy and insulation savings and ultimate light control.
