Modernizing Your House with Roman Shades and Roman blinds

It’s easy to look at your home and see what it could be. You could update what was left over from previous owners or prior renovation projects—the designs of yesteryear—and change the space up. Choose the flooring of your dreams and pick the furniture to tie it all together. All these changes are tremendous, but they have one singular issue: they’re expensive.

In a perfect world, you could make all these changes and more, but the reality is that sometimes all it takes are smaller changes that can significantly impact the home. Luckily, we have the solution. Roman Shades are an easy opportunity to upgrade your living spaces without breaking the bank.

Benefits of Roman Shades

Upgrading your blinds or shades can have a surprisingly large impact on the overall feel of a room. By availing yourself with the ability to change the quantity and type of light filtering in, you give yourself to have each room have an individual tone and flavor that suits it. Roman Shades are particularly adept in this department.

Since Roman Shades stack up evenly, you are free to maintain them at any length to let in the morning sun or block out harsh afternoon rays. This is all done with comfort and ease that will put the days of wrangling blind cords into history. Many Roman Shades offer cordless varieties now to increase their ease of use and improve their visual appeal.

And the visual appeal is a highlight of these shades. Whether you’re looking for a contemporary or an elegant look to your home, there is a Roman shade to match. The fabric, color, and opacity options mean that every room can have the personal touch you desire.

Other benefits on the mind? Roman Shades has one of the highest safety ratings available to window shades. Additionally, the cellular construction of Solera® shades helps reduce temperature loss through the window. That means an easier time keeping your house warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

Shades by Room

Living Room

Typically one of the most visible and most used rooms in the house, having the stylistic addition of Roman Shades is a godsend.

The Vignette® Modern Roman Shades are a particular favorite among our customers. The solid vertical nature and color options allow them to capitalize on what tend to be the biggest windows in the house. Neutral blue, grey, and white shades are our choice for homes targeting a more modern look; deep reds, oranges, and browns better serve those with a classic aesthetic.

Kitchen

Due to kitchens tending to be one the more cluttered rooms in the house, our clients love the more straightforward options for Roman Shades here. Our cordless shades offer additional benefits for when your hands are full, and you need to make a change.

Accent colors are key here. Since kitchens have fewer windows on average, it’s easier to get away with a color splash than in some rooms with more dominant windows.

Bedroom

The bedroom is where light control has the most benefits. Whether you’re choosing blackout curtains to allow for better sleep or semi-sheer shades to provide soft lighting throughout the room, there are almost no bad options.

Flat Roman Shades offer a calm and serene look to any bedroom. White is a prevalent color due to its ability to fit into any bedroom setup.
