Custom Window Shades

Window shades are anything but boring. Available in a variety of different styles, fabrics and colors, along with all kinds of optional enhancements, you’re sure to find a window shade that complements every room in your home.

Common Shade Types

Shades come in a lot of styles; the type that will work best for you depends on what your needs are for the room and your personal taste.

Cellular Shades

The unique construction of cellular shades traps air in distinct pockets, providing an added layer of insulation at the window—and keeping your house comfortable when temps dip, as well as when they heat up.

Roman Shades

The soft or crisp folds of Roman shades give them a timeless appeal, making them a popular choice for any aesthetic, with endless design possibilities. When lowered, Roman shade fabric lays flat; as you raise the shade, the fabric gradually rolls up.

Roller Shades

Crafted from a continuous piece of fabric, roller shades, like their name suggests, roll up or down when raised or lowered. This classic window treatment is available in a wide selection of fabrics, colors and designs.

Woven Wood Shades

Artistically woven from natural materials, woven wood shades infuse organic style, texture and warmth into a room, and are a gorgeous solution for controlling natural light.

Sheer Shades

Sheer shades beautifully filter natural light, bringing a bright and airy feel to a space. A spin on traditional blinds, they give any window a modern look.

Vertical Shades

Vertical shades are perfect for providing privacy, preventing glare and enhancing natural light. They’re designed for tall windows, large expanses of glass and patio or sliding-glass doors.

Energy-Efficient Shades

Window treatments can go a long way toward boosting your home’s energy efficiency, keeping you comfortable. That’s because compared to insulated walls and ceilings, windows easily allow more heat to escape from a room in winter and more heat to enter a room in summer. 

Cellular shades provide superior energy efficiency—they are the most energy-efficient shade style available. Their honeycomb construction traps air in distinct pockets, creating an extra layer of insulation at the window.

Light-Filtering and Room-Darkening Shades

Light-filtering shades are great for rooms where you want to enjoy the softness of natural sunlight, without harsh glare. On the other hand, room-darkening shades are ideal for rooms like bedrooms, where you want to be able to have the versatility of blocking all natural light.

Control Options for Shades

You can choose from a variety of control options for shades, from manual controls to automation.

Motorized Control

With smart motorization, you can conveniently control shades with a remote, your mobile device, automatically (through schedules you set in an app), or even with your favorite voice assistant, such as Amazon Alexa or the Google Assistant.

In addition to added convenience, motorized shades, help increase privacy and enhance security. You can schedule shades to adjust whenever you want, including scheduling them to open and close set times, giving your home a lived-in look while you’re away.

Motorization also helps increase the energy efficiency you get from having shades, as opposed to not having any window treatments. With motorization, you can schedule your shades to be in the best positions to block heat loss when it’s cold or keep out harsh rays in the summer.
