Have you ever wanted to see what your window treatments would look like before you commit to buying them? Well, now you can.
Hunter Douglas, a leader in custom window treatments, has launched “The Art of Window Dressing” iPad App that lets you see how actual products will look on your windows anywhere, anytime. The App takes full advantage of the iPad’s amazing image resolution to create a visualization tool that makes the virtual shopping experience for window fashions easy and fun. Now, finding the perfect window coverings is just a quick tap away.
“In many ways, our new App will revolutionize how consumers begin their search to find the perfect window treatments for their homes”, said Ron Kass, Hunter Douglas Executive Vice President of Marketing. “It brings together in one place everything a consumer needs to get started, simplifying the process and making it a whole lot more efficient and enjoyable.”
Part photo book and part rendering tool with a sophisticated “Swatch Sorter” function, “The Art of Window Dressing” App also lets you save and share your design ideas with family and friends.
Features include:
· The “Fashion Show” section – a virtual showroom of the most comprehensive line of custom window fashions that add great design to any home. Consumers can browse the runway of hundreds of interiors, and see how each product can help transform a home aesthetically, while delivering a myriad of benefits, from light control to energy savings.
· The “Dress A Window” section capitalizes on the Hunter Douglas proprietary iMagine™ rendering tool, which allows consumers to see how each product would look in sample room scenes or in their own home. Consumers can take their own picture of a room and render Hunter Douglas products right on the windows to preview how different styles impact the overall décor.
· The “Swatch Sorter” tool provides a wonderful way to sort through the thousands of fabric and style options available within the product collection. The tool lets a consumer select among light-filtering options, different style choices and colors. The color section of the tool sorts the fabric choices available in each product style by color families. Once a color family is selected, just the fabrics within that color family are shown so that the process of finding just the right fabric/color combination is a whole lot easier.
The App also has a convenient “Workbook” that lets all room renderings be saved complete with product specifications. These room scenes can be easily shared by e-mail, Facebook and when visiting a dealer. The built-in Dealer Locator lists nearby retailers where consumers ready to purchase can see the products on display and work with a window coverings professional who can provide additional design advice as well as measuring and installation expertise.
