Have you ever noticed that when you visit the Met, MoMA, or the Whitney, paintings are never in rooms with windows? Windowed areas are reserved for sculptures that won’t fade in sunlight, and skylights are often filtered with frosted glass. 

Art museums understand better than anyone how damaging light is to artwork—and the same applies to your home’s furnishings. Artwork, photography, books, wallpaper, furniture, vinyl records—the things that fill your New York home are all vulnerable to fading in the sunlight. 

Combatting UV rays can, of course, be done with window shades, blinds, and drapes, but do you really want to keep them drawn all day and night? You can simplify window shading with automated motorized shades from smart brands like Lutron.
