Our signature honeycomb shades are one of our most versatile options and beautify every kind of interior. Key Features Premium Design & Style—Explore the richness of texture and warmth offered by The Alustra® Collection of Duette, a thoughtfully curated suite of exclusive design-inspired fabrics, textures, colors and hardware created to meet the expectations of leading designers and discerning consumers who seek the best in design. Largest Selection in the Industry—Explore the widest selection of cellular pleat sizes, opacities, colors, textures and operating systems. Duette shades can also accommodate many specialty shaped windows, even tricky skylights. Energy-Efficiency—Studies show that windows are responsible for up to 30% of your home’s energy losses. Duette shades trap air in distinct pockets, creating exceptional insulation. Our latest innovation, Duette Architella®, features a honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb design for even greater energy efficiency. Room Darkening—The LightLock™ system, the newest iteration from Duette, is the first operating system of its kind to offer unparalleled darkness. The secret lies within the patent-pending side channel design, optimized to absorb or deflect nearly all incoming light. Durability—All of our high-performing fabrics are resistant to fading and will maintain their crisp, neat pleats over time. Vertical Application—For doors that need extra insulation, the Duette Vertiglide™ operating system is the ideal option. It’s designed for vertical applications and uses the same fabrics as your horizontal Duette shades. Use one shade to cover the entire expanse of a sliding door, or, cover the door with a split stack Vertiglide shade, with each side operating independently. Sound Absorption—Improve your room’s acoustics while reducing the intensity of outside sound. Duette Honeycomb Shades absorb up to 70% of sound energy, creating a more quiet, tranquil room.

Window coverings can reduce energy loss through the windows, lower heating and cooling bills, and improve home comfort. About 30% of a home's heating energy is lost through windows. In cooling seasons, about 76% of sunlight that falls on standard double-pane windows enters to become heat. Most types of window treatments will result in energy savings, but the exact savings will depend on the type of attachment, the season, the climate, and how the attachment is used.

Architecture + Construction + Interiors + Landscaping by: CO-LAB Photography: Cesar Bejar Tucked into a lush landscape of Areca Palms, Casa Areca was carefully positioned on a narrow lot to preserve existing trees and palms. Designed as a vacation home, Casa Areca, features 4 en-suite bedrooms on the 1st floor - allowing for an open ground floor plan. The kitchen, dining and living room are spatially integrated and open to the exterior through retractable and or pivoting floor to ceiling glass doors. A wrap-around deck frames the pool and private gardens. A stone wall built from the stone that was excavated to build the pool and cisterns provides a backdrop to the pool gardens. Built from CMU blocks and reinforced concrete the walls of the house are finished with white polished cement techniques. Light grey polished cement floors complement the walls to create a soft color pallet to better contrast the bespoke furnishings designed by CO-LAB and built with Yucatan artisans. The wood for the project was locally harvested from a tree farm and treated to match the soft color pallet carried throughout the house - providing warmth and tranquility. The electrical consumption of the house is offset by a solar panel system to reduce carbon emissions. An abundance of windows carefully oriented to capture prevailing breezes, keep the house cool and fresh throughout the year, creating a peaceful atmosphere optimal for unwinding after a beach day. The front façade which faces east was cast in place against a formwork of local wooden sticks - resulting in a palimpsest wall – displaying the journey of the sun and shadows each morning

This custom kitchen remodel in Jarrettsville was thoughtfully designed to combine timeless style with highly functional storage solutions that make everyday living easier. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, decorative tilework, and warm hickory flooring that flows seamlessly throughout the space, adding natural warmth and character. A contrasting blue island creates a beautiful focal point while adding additional workspace, storage, and seating to the heart of the kitchen. A hidden walk-in pantry cabinet is seamlessly integrated into the cabinetry wall, providing generous storage while maintaining a clean, built-in appearance. Adjacent to the range, a pull-out utensil holder keeps cooking tools organized and within easy reach. A hidden roll-out cabinet neatly stores a folding step stool for convenient access to upper cabinets. The kitchen also includes a lift-up appliance drawer designed to raise heavy countertop appliances, such as a KitchenAid mixer, to working height with ease, helping reduce lifting and countertop clutter. Around the corner, floating shelves framed by full-height decorative tile create an elegant display area that adds both storage and visual interest to the space. Thoughtful details like crown molding, layered finishes, and custom storage features make this kitchen both beautiful and exceptionally practical for daily life.
