When it comes to window shade in Media, PA styles, there’s a lot to choose from. And, all these choices make it tough to determine which is best for your particular home. Now, before you start shopping around here in Media, PA, stick with me! I’ll take you through the top 5 most popular blinds options on the market today (and offered here at Blinds & Drapery Showroom!).
- Cellular/honeycomb shades
From the side, these unique shades look like diamonds or “honeycombs.” Usually, these are made of a solid or lightweight cloth material but hold a sturdy shape very well. You can choose the top-down/bottom-up option for varied lighting and privacy. The #1 reason homeowners look to these shades as their window covering solution is for their known thermal abilities. You see, the cellular shapes add a trapped-air buffer between your indoor temps and the hot/cold ones outside! Looking for room-darkening? That’s also an option! - Roller shades
This shade option is most popular for common living spaces because it helps to protect your furniture from the UV rays. Without proper window coverings, you could end up with faded fabrics, rugs, even lightened floorboards! If you have large windows in your common areas—this is a great high-end option! - Roman shades
For added luxury, Roman shades through Blinds & Drapery Showroom are stunning! There are a variety of colors to match any interior décor. These, too, are cloth material and designed to roll/fold up into an accordion as opened. Note: these are a bit more difficult to clean than traditional blinds or simpler shades; but worth it! - Sheer shades
I like to suggest this option for places where darkness is never Rooms like the kitchen, upper common areas like the loft or rec room, the restroom, four-season porches… This style is, technically, a set of horizontal blinds with sheer cloth connecting each blind. For rooms you wish to allow in more natural light without compromising privacy, you will love our sheer shades! - Soft shades (“Solera”)
These are woven and non-woven fabrics that are perfect for accomplishing a fluid, molded look in your contemporary home. These, too, are constructed with cellular/honeycomb structure—but they’re soft to the touch. This means they look and “hang” just a bit differently than the sturdier material. Note: this style comes with both light-filtering and room-darkening options!
