Three Benefits of Designer Banded Shades
Has a ray of light shining through a window at golden hour caught your eye? It’s quite beautiful how light can gently glow throughout our homes. While it can’t be golden hour all the time, we can enjoy premium lighting if we have the proper window coverings. For example, you can create varying dimensions of light with a single banded shade when you choose Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades. Easy to operate and capable of being effortlessly integrated into a variety of home styles, Designer Banded Shades allow you to achieve your perfect amount of light by simply shifting the solid bands. For privacy, overlap the bands. For light, align the bands instead. Shifting from privacy and shade to premium light has never been so easy. Read on to learn more about the benefits of Designer Banded Shades for your home.
Benefit 1: Stunning Fabrics
There is no greater feeling than finding that perfect stylistic piece for your home. This can be a unique work of art, fun color swatch, or a wallpaper that is finally back in stock. It can also be in the form of your window treatments. Another one of the benefits of Designer Banded Shades is that they offer a beautiful fabric collection that we are more than happy to walk you through to find the best fit. Designer Banded Shades come in three different band heights for a variety of windows, as well as numerous colors, textures and geometric patterns. We can also introduce you to light-filtering and room-darkening opacities to help you gain total light control in your home. Choose from popular colors like Sahara, Cherrywood, Chambray, and more.
Benefit 2: Custom top Treatments
If you want to take your customization of our Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades a step further, then you will love exploring our available top treatments! These are fabric-wrapped headers in a square design that create a sleek, unique style to your windows. They come in eight custom hardware colors that we are more than happy to help you coordinate if you are interested in this feature. This option is perfect for those who want to add a unique style to their windows without adding a cluttered look and feel. After all, we want to keep your space feeling open and clean for a look that will calm and impress for years to come.
Benefit 3: Easy Operation
While we love a shade that looks good, a proper shade will work smoothly each time you open, close, or adjust it. This is another one of the many benefits of Designer Banded Shades. The smooth, precise operation garnered from its quality construction makes these shades easy as a breeze to use. No more using your entire body weight to move the shades or dealing with annoying cords. Since Designer Banded Shades are perfect for wide windows, you can rest easy knowing that your sliding glass doors, sun rooms, and other areas with wide glass expanses will be dressed in the best fashions.
