LIGHT FILTERINGRoller Shades

Roller shades come in a variety of light filtering and black-out fabrics that provide satisfactory amounts of privacy to your living room, office, and kitchen spaces. Light filtering (also known as solar shades or screen shades) solid colour fabric can easily be integrated into most interior styles. The diffusion of light creates gentle ambient lighting in your rooms. Since solar shades provide less privacy, we suggest installing these window coverings in more public areas like your kitchen, living room, or sunroom/patio space. For areas that require more privacy, chose a roller shade with blackout fabric. For more control over light and privacy, consider installing a ‘combo-roller shade’ with two different opacity, blackout, and solar shades on one window.

ROLLER SHADES:

  • Great for offices that need glare reducing
  • Clean modern lines that can easily fit into many interior styles
  • Some screen fabrics have durable fiberglass core that won’t stretch, shrink or twist whatever the temperate
  • Bring some visual interest with light patterns, can also have different colours to match interior of rooms
  • Can have reverse roll capabilities to stay close to the window, preventing interference with door or window handles

SCREEN SHADES COLOR & OPACITY

CONSIDER COLOUR

Choose a dark color for dramatic contrast, crisp view and reduced glare on brightly lit windows. A light color choice deflects heat and light, which increases energy efficiency, but softens the view.

LIMITED PRIVACY

Even the most densely woven screen fabrics will not provide 100% privacy at night with interior lights on. If privacy matters, choose either solar shade or blackout fabric.
