The design for the first honeycomb shade began in an unlikely place: an attic. In 1977, Wendell Colson built his first prototype from Mylar and cardboard, creating a shade that combined form and function—trapping air for insulation while offering a clean, modern look. Hunter Douglas brought his invention to life in 1985 as the Duette® Honeycomb Shade, quickly recognized for its energy efficiency and elegant design. Colson joined Hunter Douglas to lead research and development— and decades later, he still pushes boundaries in design and technology. We recently visited Colson in his workspace to talk about innovation, inspiration, and the story behind an invention that changed the way people live with light.

That spirit of ingenuity has guided every breakthrough—from aluminum blinds in the 1930s to today’s most advanced shade systems.
