The Year In Review: Window Covering Trends for 2024

Looking at window covering trends in 2024 can provide a glimpse at what’s to come in 2025 and beyond. More people have become conscious of the need to use our shared global resources more sustainably to protect our environment, which shows up prevalently in our interior design choices, especially in the colors, materials, and designs.

Hunter Douglas Parkland® Wood Blinds near Bellevue, Washington (WA)

At The Blind Alley, we carry Hunter Douglas window treatments—high-quality products from one of the nation’s leading brands—that are stylish, on-trend, innovative, and meet your needs both now and into the future.

Let’s discuss some of the window treatment trends from 2024 to help you choose a gorgeous design that will enhance your home for today and tomorrow.

Hunter Douglas Blind Trends for 2024

With an eye toward sustainability, natural materials have been and will be a growing trend in interior design as homeowners continue to choose finishes that reflect their values.

  • Parkland® Wood Blinds are made from hardwood poplar or basswood that comes from responsibly managed forests. Sustainable, textured, and available in numerous colors, they’re a solid choice for many rooms in your home.
  • For bathrooms and moist basements where wood isn’t ideal or for a lower price point, Everwood® Faux Wood Blinds come in a close second place. They mimic natural wood, even incorporating wood grains, for homeowners looking for that biophilic (nature-loving) look without the upkeep.

Automated Window Treatment Trends in 2024

A substantial window treatment trend with an eye on sustainability is automation. Big in 2024 and forecasted to be important moving forward, automation makes it easier to use your blinds, shades, or shutters because you can schedule when they open or shut, as well as the angle they open, and more.

With Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation, you can also set your window coverings to close with sunset, providing extra privacy and operating them from anywhere in the world, making your home more secure.

Color Trends

While they were popular in 2024, expect to see even more colors that are found in nature like neutral earth tones in your interior design in 2025 as well. These colors include shades of brown, gray, blue, green, yellow, and orange.

Window Covering Trends in 2024: Layering Treatments

Window treatment trends in 2024 included layering window treatments to create a lush and textured look.

Drapery and top treatments like valences are often used for layering, but window shades like woven shades, roller shades, or Roman shades can also be used to layer different opacities for room darkening or light filtering. This unique option adds texture and visual interest to the room and can keep your home a more comfortable temperature.
