#### As I have written before,

Today, Americans have an array of options to help us fight the cold. As well as 
control heating costs, utilize alternative forms of energy, and therefore conserve
our resources. Therefore, Hunter Douglas, the leading window fashions manufacturer,
launched Duette shades. Consequently, the world’s first honeycomb shade was in 1985.

The unique honeycomb construction similarly traps air inside the cells. Thereby 
keeping homes warmer in winter and cooler in the summer. So ® Architella® shades,
introduced in 2006. It, therefore, elevated this innovative design to new levels
of energy efficiency. All the while with its patented honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb
construction. A properly installed Duette Architella shade can reduce heat lost 
through windows by up to 40 percent and help reduce heating costs.

The Benefits are Only Outnumbered by the Selection Named Best New Style in the WCMA

Collection is the industry’s largest and most comprehensive. It also offers the 
five new Architella® fabrics as well as other enhancements. Chief among the new 
fabrics, Duette Architella Trielle™, is a new proprietary product. One that provides
similar light transmission.

Also, as original Duette Architella shades, but with 20 percent more energy efficiency.
That’s by adding an additional cell within a honeycomb cell. Then create six fabric
layers and five separate air pockets for insulation. Offered in a new 1½” pleat 
size, this fabric captured the highest [award](https://greenlivingguy.com/2020/04/mission-hills-haikou-achieves-coveted-geo-certified-award-for-its-sustainable-environmental-management/)
