Complete Your Design with Banded Shades

Window treatments are the perfect finishing touch that ties a room together. Providing the perfect amount of soft light, privacy, and style, these pieces are the perfect finishing touch to a great interior design scheme. Of course, narrowing down your options can feel overwhelming. If you’re looking for a modern style that provides views when you want it and privacy when you need it, you might just like adding banded window shades to your home. Here’s why you will love adding this style to any room:

Before deciding to invest in a window treatment, it’s good to know what that treatment is all about. Banded shades feature alternating sheer and solid fabric bands, allowing you to achieve light control and privacy with ease. Their layered look, meanwhile, provides visual intrigue at your windows. Unlike traditional shades that operate by being moved up and down, banded shades allow you to adjust the light entering your home while maintaining a unique, clean appearance with a simple shift. They’re perfect for modern, contemporary, and transitional home designs, but can also be tailored to fit a variety of other styles.

A room’s tone is brought together by furniture, color palettes, and décor. With banded shades, you can easily complement these pieces, regardless of your personal style. Our collection of banded shades from Hunter Douglas and Alta® Window Fashions offers extensive fabric selections that range in color, texture, and patterns. They also provide various fabric opacities that include light filtering and light dimming. Whether you want something bold for a neutral room or soft hues for a look of understated elegance, banded shades help add those cohesive finishing touches that you and your guests will notice immediately.

In addition to looking beautiful, banded shades provide those practical benefits needed to make your home feel comfortable and safe. The fabrics of banded shades transform bright light into a soft glow throughout a room, allowing you and your guests to enjoy your décor without any pesky glare. Shift the bands again, and you can block out the outside world to enjoy privacy whenever you need it. Though not aesthetic benefits, these perks are important pieces that make an interior design pie whole.

Many homeowners love the easy convenience of operating their banded shades. But what if you wanted even more convenience? Our banded shades are compatible with innovative motorization systems from Hunter Douglas and Alta® Window Fashions. By upgrading to this system, you can say goodbye to the days of needing to constantly adjust your window treatments by hand.

Instead, you can schedule your banded shades to adjust on a schedule or in real time via an app, remote control, or even your voice. This is especially helpful for hard-to-reach windows. This system can also provide added peace of mind for those with small children or pets, as it is inherently cordless.
