How Banded Shades Work

Banded shades allow you to have the best of both worlds when it comes to light control. They work by having two panels, one in front of the other, that have horizontally-oriented alternating bands of opaque and sheer fabric. There is also another design available that adds some geometric complexity to the pattern. This design allows you to have the panels aligned to let in dynamic natural light, or adjusted to overlap to completely block out sunlight. Of course, you can also roll the shades up all the way to let in the full view and flood the room with light from outside. The sheer fabric on the banded shades diffuses sunlight and block UV rays, allowing you to let in sunlight without the harmful effects of the sun. The sheer fabric also still gives you privacy during the daytime.

Customizing Designer Banded Shades

As with all Hunter Douglas window treatments, Designer Banded shades are easy to make fit the style of your home and elevate the look of any room to the next level. Not only are there two geometric shapes to choose from, there are many different fabric, color, texture, and pattern options to make your banded shades look just how you want. You can also choose from three different sizes of the bands.

Where to Add Banded Shades in The Home

Banded shades are great for adding natural light into a space while still getting privacy. This makes them perfect for bedrooms with large windows. Since you just need to adjust them slightly to close all the way, you can get total privacy at any time during the day in a pinch. Banded shades also work really well in the bathroom. Having a good amount of natural light is helpful for getting ready for the day, not to mention great for stimulating alertness when you need it most.

Since sheer fabric still gives you privacy, you can even situate them next to a spa in your bathroom for a relaxing midday filled with natural light. Banded shades are also resistant to mold and the effects of heat and moisture, which helps for the setting of a bathroom. Any rooms with large windows and lots of direct sunlight, such as common areas, are also great for banded shades since they work well for diffusing and blocking sunlight.
