As 2025 comes to a close, Made in the Shade Jackson Hole is proud to look back on a year filled with creativity, collaboration, and stunning transformations. From cozy mountain chalets to modern ranch homes, our projects have reflected the unique character of Jackson Hole’s window design highlights—where rustic beauty meets refined comfort.
Whether you’re new to the area or have called Wyoming home for years, this year’s design highlights offer inspiration for creating your perfect space. Join us as we celebrate our favorite projects, happy clients, and timeless window treatment trends that made 2025 truly special.
Designing for Mountain Living
In Jackson Hole, window treatments do more than just complete a room—they help homeowners balance breathtaking views with privacy and comfort. Many of our clients this year wanted solutions that complemented the natural landscape while offering energy efficiency during Wyoming’s chilly winters.
For several Teton Village homes, we installed cellular shades that help insulate windows and regulate indoor temperatures. Their honeycomb design traps air, keeping homes warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Paired with natural wood finishes, these shades created a cozy, high-end look perfect for mountain living.
Smart Homes Meet Smart Style
2025 marked a big shift toward home automation in Jackson Hole. More clients requested motorized holiday window solutions that could integrate with their smart home systems. Our team installed motorized shades in several custom builds throughout the valley—offering convenience, energy efficiency, and a touch of luxury.
These shades can be controlled with the touch of a button, a voice command, or even pre-scheduled to adjust with sunrise and sunset. For one Wilson family, we paired roller shades in a soft linen fabric with Somfy motors, allowing them to enjoy wide-open views during the day and effortless privacy at night. It’s technology that fits right into the rhythm of mountain life.
Warm Textures and Custom Drapery
This year, layered looks and textured fabrics became a favorite among Jackson Hole homeowners. We designed and installed custom drapery that added warmth and personality to great rooms and primary suites. Clients gravitated toward neutral palettes—beige, taupe, and soft gray—with tactile materials like linen and velvet.
One memorable project in downtown Jackson featured floor-to-ceiling drapery with a hidden track system, perfectly framing large picture windows. Combined with Roman shades in a coordinating fabric, the result was an elegant balance of light control and sophistication.
Showcasing Natural Beauty with Wood Shutters
Wood finishes remained a timeless favorite in 2025. Many homeowners opted for plantation shutters to highlight the rustic charm of their cabins and lodges. Whether stained to match reclaimed wood beams or painted for a modern farmhouse vibe, shutters offered a combination of structure and style that fit beautifully with the region’s natural design aesthetic.
In one standout Jackson project, we installed custom-fit wood shutters in a home overlooking the Snake River. The homeowners loved how the adjustable louvers let them filter light while maintaining their privacy—and how the finish perfectly matched their handcrafted furniture.
Outdoor Comfort with Patio Shades
Outdoor living continued to be a big trend in 2025, especially during the warmer months. We helped several clients extend their living spaces with exterior shades and awnings that provided shade and comfort on decks and patios.
One of our favorite projects this year was a mountain-view patio in Wilson, where we installed retractable shades that block UV rays and reduce glare without obscuring the view. The homeowners now enjoy morning coffee and evening sunsets in comfort, no matter the season.
Client Spotlight: Creating Cozy Elegance
Of all our 2025 projects, one of the most memorable took place in the heart of Jackson. Our client, a recent retiree, wanted her new home to feel serene, soft, and timeless. She chose sheer shades for her living room to diffuse natural light, paired with drapery panels for added warmth. The combination created an airy, elegant space that changes beautifully throughout the day as the light shifts across the Tetons.
“Every time I walk into the room, I feel calm,” she shared. “The festive window treatments bring everything together. The team made the entire process so easy—start to finish.”
Serving Our Jackson Hole Community
Beyond beautiful designs, 2025 was also a year of connection. We’re grateful for the clients who welcomed us into their homes, the builders and designers who trusted us with their projects, and the local community that continues to inspire our work. Each installation is a reflection of Jackson Hole’s spirit—strong, stylish, and deeply connected to nature.
Our small team takes pride in every project, from precise measurements to final installation. Whether it’s a mountain cabin in Kelly, a modern home in Jackson, or a ski-in chalet in Teton Village, we love helping homeowners bring their vision to life.
Looking Ahead to 2026
As we prepare for the new year, we’re excited to continue pushing the boundaries of design and innovation. Expect to see even more sustainable materials, motorized options, and layered looks in 2026. We’re already working with several homeowners and builders who want to combine traditional Jackson Hole style with the latest window technology.
Our goal remains the same: to make every space more comfortable, more functional, and more beautiful—one window at a time.
