Traditional blinds reimagined
Aria™ Soft Blinds reimagine traditional window blinds. Instead of standard rigid slats, they feature soft fabric vanes that tilt open to filter and soften sunlight, or close completely for total privacy. Mitigating the harsh lines often associated with traditional Venetian blinds, the use of lightweight, elegant fabric gives the whole treatment a refined, flowing appearance, seamlessly matching your modern home. Test out this innovative soft vane design before installing it in your own home by visiting one of our locations.
Sheer Fabric
Excellent for diffusing harsh sunlight and maintaining an outward view while reducing glare.
Light-Dimming
This enhancement offers two levels of opacity in one convenient setting. Tilt vanes down for soft dimming and up for total room darkening and superior privacy closure.
Aria™ Soft Blinds offer luxurious, textured fabrics primarily in neutral colors and are perfect for extra-large windows due to their lightweight but durable construction. To ensure that your Hunter Douglas soft blinds seamlessly integrate and complement your existing decor, we offer total customization on fabric colors and textures. When you book a consultation, our experienced team will help you discover the perfect fabric and light control options for every room.

Frequently asked questions
What are Aria™ Soft Blinds, and how do they differ from regular blinds?
Aria™ Soft Blinds reimagine the horizontal blind: instead of rigid slats, they use soft fabric vanes that tilt open to filter and soften sunlight or close completely for privacy. You operate them with a tilt bar rather than a wand. The result keeps the adjustable light control of a blind but loses the hard Venetian lines, giving you a softer, more flowing look closer to a sheer shade—a good fit for modern Bay Area interiors.
How are Aria™ Soft Blinds different from Hunter Douglas sheer shades?
They're cousins but not the same. Both use soft fabric vanes for filtered light, but Aria™ Soft Blinds are a true blind format—fabric vanes on a tilt mechanism—designed as a lightweight, softer alternative to hard-slat blinds, and its light-dimming option gives two opacities in one: tilt down for soft dimming, tilt up for room darkening and full privacy. If you're cross-shopping the two, we'll show you both side by side so the difference is obvious in person.
Are Aria™ Soft Blinds good for large windows and sliding doors?
Yes—their lightweight but durable construction makes them well suited to extra-large windows, and Rebarts helps customize them for specialty shapes like bay and corner windows as well as sliding glass and French doors. That versatility matters in Bay Area homes with wide glass and non-standard openings. At the measurement we'll confirm exactly what's possible for each window with your chosen fabric.
Are Aria™ Soft Blinds child- and pet-safe, and how are they operated?
They come in three control options—the cordless push/pull LiteRise® system, EasyTilt bar, and PowerView® Automation (with tilt control)—which we recommend for any home with young children or pets, since eliminating operating cords is the safest setup. With PowerView® Automation you can schedule the vanes to tilt for morning light, manage midday glare, and close for privacy at sunset, hands-free. Our in-house team programs and integrates the system fully before leaving your home.
