Custom Shutters for Your Interior Design
When most people start shopping for window treatments, blinds and shades usually come to mind first. But inside shutters deserve just as much consideration. The interior décor experts at Julie Muscato Home & Gifts know that shutters offer a different aesthetic: This is an architectural presence that elevates any room.

Shutters for Your Interior Design: Coordinating the Look
Matching window coverings to your home's interior décor requires some thought. If you have a traditional home, rich wood tones that complement crown molding or hardwood floors will create a cohesive look. Lighter paints and stains are perfect for coastal or cottage looks, or you can go darker for modern, farmhouse, or eclectic décor styles.
Mid-century modern design practically demands horizontal slats, as the clean geometry and emphasis on line create that iconic look the style is known for. If your home is
transitional (blends traditional and contemporary elements), the right shutters can tie everything together. Take a look at your room's colors, furniture, and architectural details before making a decision.
Going Custom With Hunter Douglas Interior Shutters
You get what you pay for with shutters; generic options typically have glued-together parts and below-par artistry. Hunter Douglas spends years refining its products, ensuring you receive exceptional quality shutters.
Hunter Douglas interior shutters come in three sophisticated styles:
Heritance® Wood Shutters
There's something about real wood that resonates with homeowners. The grain patterns are unique, the warmth is genuine: When you run your hand across quality wood shutters, you feel the difference. You can stain them to perfectly match your existing trim, or change it up for contrast.
Solid wood louvers have weight to them and feel substantial and permanent. They're showstoppers in formal dining rooms, master bedrooms, or a home library where you want that elegant look. Heritance® Wood Shutters also help insulate windows, keeping rooms more comfortable.
NewStyle® Composite Shutters
Sometimes, engineered materials make more sense than wood. Composite shutters stand up to heat and humidity, so they're a smart choice for bathrooms, kitchens, and those tricky basement windows. They also suit high-traffic spots where wood might get dinged up over time, like family rooms.
NewStyle® Composite Shutters have a low-luster finish that resembles real wood. And like Heritance® Wood Shutters, this faux wood version is built with Truemill® dovetail construction, which uses artisan joinery methods instead of glue.
Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters
Vinyl shutters are the workhorses of the shutter world. Heat, UV rays, and moisture can damage solid wood, but vinyl doesn't care. It handles intense sun without fading, cracking, or peeling, making it perfect for west-facing windows that receive a flood of afternoon light.
Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters are manufactured with Hunter Douglas Polysatin™ material, resin blocks, and aluminum bracing for unmatched durability and moisture resistance. Hunter Douglas guarantees that these shutters won't discolor, peel, chip, crack, or fade — ask us about the Palm Beach Promise™.
