3 Ways Room-Darkening Shades Help You Get Better Sleep

To create the optimal sleeping environment, we need to control three environmental factors in our sleeping areas: light, temperature, and sound. Shades for windows can be a powerful tool to control these environmental factors and help to create the ideal sleeping conditions in bedrooms throughout your Miami home.

  1. DarkFirst and foremost, we want to use room-darkening shades to block out sunlight and street light, creating a dark interior environment better suited for sleeping.
  2. CoolFor most of us, the ideal temperature for sleeping is around 65° Fahrenheit. Blackout shades in Miami help keep the Florida sun and heat out, maintaining a more comfortable and sleep-friendly environment.
  3. Quiet—Noise is the third factor that can ruin a good night’s sleep. Ideally, we want a peaceful and quiet environment to sleep in. There are several styles of Hunter Douglas shades for windows that are known for their sound absorption, decreasing external noise and internal echoing for a quieter sleeping environment.

Top 3 Blackout Shades from Hunter Douglas

Cellular Shades

While some materials can be more or less room darkening, to achieve true blackout conditions, we recommend Duette® Cellular Shades. Cellular shades can help you take control of light, temperature, and sound in the bedroom, thanks to their unique honeycomb interior. For the best in blackout darkness for sleeping, we like Duette® Cellular Shades with the LightLock® blackout system. This room-darkening shade has side tracks along the window frame to eliminate light leaks coming in for compressively darker bedroom interiors.

Roman Shades

The rich room-darkening fabrics used in Hunter Douglas Roman shades can help homeowners better control the natural sunlight entering their sleeping spaces with sophisticated style. Try Vignette® Roman Shades with the Duolite® system for blackout shades in Miami that actually can provide a wide range of lighting options from soft filtration to blackout darkness thanks to its unique dual-shade design.

Plantation Shutters

Our final suggestion for the best blackout treatments involves layering plantation shutters and full drapery together to create a single, multi-dimensional window fashion.

We like using Heritance® Wood Shutters under full drapery for layered shading, in which each treatment provides yet another layer of light control and insulation for better overall environmental control. This option also has the greatest number of aesthetic customization options available for highly personalized style. Mix and match shutter materials and drapery fabrics for endless combinations.
