Soft Blinds
Blinds are great for throwing across a wide window to control harsh sunlight coming into your home. However, in some styles, a hard shade might not be ideal. Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades is one way to combine the light controlling ability of thick blinds while maintaining a softer look. With a solid linear design mimicking the slats on blinds, these shades use alternating sheer and opaque materials to create the perfect combination of light filtering and blocking. Like blinds, the bands can be adjusted to allow a full range of light in, so whether you’re looking for full sunlight or soft shading, banded shades deliver with light-filtering and room-darkening textile options.
The Convenience of Roller Shades
Built on the streamlined frame of a roller shade, Designer Banded Shades incorporate the easy-to-use features of that popular window design in their construction. The roller style allows banded shades to smoothly operate on windows of all sizes, including broad picture windows and bay or corner windows. The efficient design of roller shades is also compatible with numerous state-of-the-art operating systems by Hunter Douglas, including the child-friendly SoftTouch® system or the latest PowerView® automated system offering the best-motorized control for a modern household.
Sheer Roller Shades
Textural interest is built in internal residential décor using varying but complementary textures. Designer Banded Shades uses opaque fabrics (in various colors and patterns) and sheer screening material to create a balanced, texturally exciting window treatment. The dual fabrics not only create shades that are compelling to look at, but the duality is also at the heart of what makes banded shades so functionally diverse. It is what allows banded shades to respond to several residential needs like the need for privacy or the need for more light, by balancing the openness of its screening against the light-blocking nature of its opaque bands. From fully open to allow all the sunlight and view in, to a halfway mix, to blocking all light and vision out completely when you need complete privacy.
