Designer Window Shades
In this article, we will explore the concept of natural drapes and their increasing popularity in interior design. Natural drapes, made from eco-friendly and sustainable materials, not only add a touch of elegance to any space but also have several benefits for the environment. From improving indoor air quality to reducing energy consumption, natural drapes are the ideal choice for environmentally conscious individuals looking to enhance their home décor. Join us as we delve into the world of natural drapes and discover why they are becoming a must-have in the interior design industry.
What are Natural Drapes?
Natural drapes are a popular window treatment option that adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to any space. These drapes are made from natural materials, such as cotton, linen, silk, or wool, which are known for their durability and high-quality. They are also eco-friendly, as they are made from sustainable resources and do not release harmful chemicals into the environment.
Features of Natural Drapes
Natural drapes are known for their versatility and ability to complement any interior design style. Whether you have a modern, minimalist space or a cozy, traditional room, natural drapes can add a touch of warmth and texture to your windows. They come in a variety of colors and patterns, allowing you to choose the perfect style to suit your space.
Advantages of Natural Drapes
One of the main benefits of natural drapes is their ability to regulate temperature and control light. The natural fibers used in these drapes have excellent insulation properties, keeping your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. They also provide excellent privacy and light control, allowing you to create a comfortable and intimate atmosphere in any room.
To maintain the beauty and longevity of your natural drapes, it is important to care for them properly. Regular dusting and vacuuming can help remove any accumulated dirt or debris. Depending on the fabric, you may also need to professionally dry clean or hand wash your drapes to keep them looking their best.
In conclusion, natural drapes are a stylish and eco-friendly window treatment option that can enhance the beauty and functionality of any space. Whether you are looking for insulation, privacy, or simply a touch of elegance, natural drapes are a great choice that will stand the test of time.
OUR MOST POPULAR STYLES
Roman Shades
Roman shades are the perfect balance between the softness of drapes and the functionality of shades. Made of fabric, these beautiful window coverings are popular for their softness and distinctive lifting style. As the shade is raised, strings on the back of the shade allow it to fold up in Roman style pleats, which is how these shades got their name. Roman shades are excellent for blocking out the sun and perfect for any room in the house. Select from flat, pleated, and balloon styles to coordinate with your home décor.
Honeycomb or Cellular Shades
Honeycomb shades, sometimes referred to as pleated or cellular shades are one of the most versatile window coverings on the market today. They fit nearly any type of window including specialty shaped windows and are considered the best choice for energy efficiency. Available in a variety of pleat sizes and in both horizontal and vertical application, they offer a clean look at the window from both inside and out. Select from hundreds of colors, textures and opacities from sheer to blackout to meet your light control requirements. Honeycomb shades come with a retractable cord, cordless, top/down bottom up and can be motorized – making them a perfect solution for any room.
Roller & Screen Shades
Spend your time indoors comfortably, while maintaining your view of the outdoors with our fade-free solar roller and screen shades. The tastefully minimalistic design reduces glare and heat by diffusing bright sunlight in your home’s most sun-drenched spaces and perfect for any California home. Solar roller and screen shades reduce heat in sun-facing rooms and feature a versatile style that complements a variety of interiors, from formal and modern to casual and traditional. Available in an array of beautiful fabrics, designs, colors, and opacities.
Woven Wood Shades
Customers love natural woven shades because of their timeless beauty and because of their environmentally sound characteristics. Woven window shades are perfect for any window or door, including uniquely shaped openings. Their natural features softly diffuse light while providing privacy. Woven shades also improve energy efficiency by filtering out UV light to keep your room cooler in the hot months and warmer in the cold months. When lowered, these woven wood shades lie flat. When raised, the woven woods hang in even, overlapping folds, adding a warm, rich dimension to any room. Select from bamboo, reeds, jute or grass materials.
Blackout Shades
If you want to block out as much natural light as possible, look for products that are designed to minimize light gaps, rout holes and seams. Honeycomb and roller shades are great options. If you are looking for optional room darkening capabilities, consider adding a room darkening liner available on most of our shades; for example, Roman or woven wood shades. The liner is sewn on back of the shade and operates independently for optimum performance. Use the light filtering fabric during the day and the blackout fabric at night. Consider blackout shades in the nursery, media room and bedrooms.
