1. Maximize your window treatment with a dual-purpose shade

Roman Shades serve more than one function; they are both stationary valances which optimize a room’s overall design aesthetic as well as operating shades that provide privacy and light control. Interior designers and homeowners alike love Roman shades for their ability to flawlessly integrate style with functionality.

2. Customizable embellishments

Every home is unique, and your window treatments should be an expression of your personal style. Take the appearance of your Roman Shades to the next level with embellishments such as shaped tops or bottoms and interesting trims. Such individualized decorative elements sprinkle in flair and personality, elevating your shades into gorgeous focal points of your interior decor. 

3. Sheer elegance

The way light filters through your windows sets the tone for your entire home. A sheer Roman shade is a beautiful way to add a touch of elegance and romance and set the scene for an inviting, tranquil ambience. The delicate nature of sheer fabrics made out of loose weaves makes them ideal for relaxed bottom shades, draping in graceful swoops rather than stiff clusters. Such sheer fabrics also function well as non-operational valances, balancing heavy furniture with an airy, sophisticated touch without the need for functionality. However, it’s important to note that if you would like functional shades, sheer fabrics will expose any rings, support ribs, and strings – which on its own can be an intricate, subtle detail.

4. Lining and interlining

Lining and interlining is your best option when it comes to ensuring optimal durability and performance. Lining and interlining your roman shade will not only make your shades look and feel more luxurious, but also provide additional protection against the hot Florida sun, and can help you save on energy bills as they are more efficient at keeping out drafts for improved energy efficiency. If you’re looking for blackout capabilities (who doesn’t love a good night’s sleep!)It’s easy to integrate a blackout layer as an interlining so you have complete privacy and light blockage whenever you want. Moreover, if you’re going for a sleek, modern look, layers of linings and interlinings can minimize the visibility of hidden mechanics like strings, ribs, rings, and lift systems.
