If you live in Los Angeles, purchasing a set of high-end window shades is one of the best investments you can make. Beyond providing functionality in the form of light and temperature control, custom shading solutions are sure to match your taste, whether austere, ornate or somewhere in between.
Because the nearly limitless options available for luxury windows treatments are overwhelming for some, we’ve compiled five of our favorite styles of shades sure to suit anyone’s practical and stylistic specifications.
Roman Shades
As an industry-standard, there’s really nothing not to like about the smooth and sleek look of hand-tailored Roman shades. In sharp contrast to the richness of full-length draperies or blinds, Roman shades offer a clean, streamlined look that often highlights the contours of the windows and walls that they adorn.
Cellular/Honeycomb Shades
Named for their distinctive patterning that recalls the busy work of nature’s pollinators, cellular/honeycomb shades are known for their energy-saving capabilities. They achieve this by their shape, which helps to trap air between the window and the room, thus curbing heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer.
Our cellular/honeycomb window shades can be customized in an array of ways, including their adjustment mechanism. We can also adjust for the opacity and crispness of the fabric they are made from, so you can be sure your green sensibilities match your aesthetic ones.
Woven Shades
The textured, casual look and feel of woven shades make them an ideal addition to any room’s atmosphere. Even better, they can be tailored from a variety of different materials from bamboo and grasses to reeds and planks, each of which offers its own unique take on an elegantly organic look.
Our woven shades can be designed to your preferred opacity with cordless, rolling, and motorized lift options, as well as privacy liners, so your LA house is as peaceful and quiet as you want it to be.
Outdoor Shades
Outdoor shades are a sophisticated way to bring the plush, comfortable ambiance of your house’s interior to its exterior. They can provide added privacy to your backyard or patio and will keep unwanted heat and sunlight at bay so you, your guests, and the furnishings you lounge in stay cool and unblemished by harmful UV light. Like all of our window shades, our outdoor selection is customizable with options for motorization and cordless retraction.
Skylight Shades
Our skylight shades are perfect for any contemporary Los Angeles dwelling thanks to the perfect fusion of art and technology. They are meant to be installed in hard-to-reach locations and can be outfitted with a range of options for ease of use, including push-button motorization, and double paneling for added insulation. They can be designed to be pleated or celled to match any room.
