Roman Shades
Roman shades bring the softness of fabric to your windows without the extra volume of traditional drapery. Their tailored folds create a finished, inviting look that works just as well in a cozy bedroom as it does in a polished dining room.
At Rachel Brosky Interiors, we believe window treatment shopping should be a fun, enjoyable experience that helps homeowners find options that fit the room rather than simply cover the window.
Visit our showroom near Elizabethtown, Kentucky, to explore Hunter Douglas Roman shades and see how different materials and features can work with your home.
Give Your Windows a Tailored Look
Roman shades for windows have a distinctive design. When lowered, the fabric covers the window in a smooth, tailored fashion. Raise the shade, and the fabric forms attractive folds rather than disappearing around a roller.
Hunter Douglas offers a range of fabric choices and opacities, making it easier to coordinate your shades with both your interior design style and those more practical needs.
Timeless Appeal With Vignette® Roman Shades
Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades offer a fresh interpretation of traditional Roman shades. Their crisp construction creates a polished appearance, while the lack of exposed rear cords keeps the back of the shade clean and uncluttered.
Choose between full and flat folds to achieve the artistic character you want. The full-fold option has a soft, dimensional appearance, while flat folds create a streamlined profile that feels particularly at home in contemporary spaces.
Vignette® Roman Shades are also available in rolling and stacking shade styles:
- Rolling style has the fabric roll neatly into the headrail as you raise the shade.
- Stacking style gathers the folds neatly at the top.
These choices let you consider more than color alone when designing custom Roman shades for your home.
Control Light and Privacy How and When You Want
Although Roman shades for windows traditionally feature a solid fabric layer, there’s still some flexibility in light control and privacy. With Vignette® Roman Shades, you can choose the fabric opacity you want, including sheer, light-filtering, or room-darkening.
There are also some optional enhancements you can upgrade your Hunter Douglas Roman Shades to, such as:
- Top-Down/Bottom-Up Design: Open your Roman shades from the top down, bottom up, or any combination to enjoy perfect light control in your space. This is the best way to have both natural light and privacy simultaneously.
- Duolite® System: Pair a light-filtering and a room-darkening fabric in a single Roman shade for flexible light control and privacy.
Customize Your Roman Shade Fabrics and Colors
Fabric can change the personality of Roman shades. The right color can either blend with your walls or create contrast, making the window part of the room's design. The general rule for fabric color, however, is that darker shades make rooms appear smaller, while lighter shades have the opposite visual effect.
Hunter Douglas offers an assortment of high-quality, luxurious fabrics for Vignette® Roman Shades. And if you want to enjoy an even more distinctive look for your window, explore the exclusive Alustra® Collection, featuring globally sourced textiles.
In this collection, you’ll find ways to infuse your home with structured beauty and softness, just like you see in refined interior design magazines.
Playing With Patterns for Custom Roman Shades
Don’t be afraid to experiment with patterned fabrics, for example:
- Bold and vibrant patterns may not be the best choice for a room meant to feel calming, such as a bedroom or nursery.
- Vertical stripes are great for a more masculine room and elongate a shorter window.
- Botanical or floral prints can brighten a room and make it feel airier, more feminine, and more spacious, while intriguing textures add depth to a monochromatic color scheme.
Automate Your Roman Shades for Quiet Luxury
Your Roman shades should be comfortable to use every day. Hunter Douglas offers innovative operating options that can make raising and lowering your shades simple and convenient, including motorized Roman shades.
With the help of the award-winning PowerView® Automation, you can control your window shades with ease. Use the PowerView® App, Pebble® Remote, or voice commands when paired with your favorite smart home system.
Create a schedule that sets your Roman shades to open or close at specific times, such as sunrise or sunset. You can even control them from anywhere in the world, so you never have to fret about whether you remembered to close your shades before you left for your vacation.
