Upgrade with Customizations for your Roman Shades
Roman shades are a beautiful window treatment option, but to make the ones in your home stand out consider the different options available for customizations to make your treatments not only one of a kind but also functionally optimal for your household. Customizations for modern Roman shades include upgrades to the efficiency and style of operating systems, a greater range in fabric choices including designer lines, and the addition of light-filtering liners that improve the shade’s room-darkening abilities. Hunter Douglas makes several styles of Roman shades including:
- Vignette® Modern Roman Shades
- Solera® Soft Roman Shades
- Design Studio™ Roman Shades
Each style has unique features and options for customization due to their varied designs, so choosing which shades you want depends on which features, and which customizations prove to be the most desirable for your household.
Top Customizations for Roman Shades
1. Motorization
The top customization for Roman shades is something you can’t even see, motorization. Motorized shades are precise in their movements and extremely easy to use, so they are great on all types of windows around the house including hard-to-reach windows. PowerView® Automation from Hunter Douglas is available on Vignette® Modern Roman Shades, and the motorized system has several options for user-friendly interfaces including a handheld remote, wall unit, online app, and integration into smart-home systems. Upgrading from a manual Roman shade to a motorized one with automated options for control is an upgrade to functionality that makes life easier daily.
