Flat Roman Shades

One of our favorite Roman shade styles is Flat Roman shades. These are a timeless choice that exudes classic elegance thanks to their flat, unstructured appearance. These shades create a clean, polished look even when entirely pulled down. This makes flat Roman shades excellent for those who prefer a minimalist and versatile design. Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades are a stunning addition to any home looking for some functional fashion.

Of course, flat Roman shades offer more benefits than just good looks! When fully closed, flat Roman shades provide excellent light control and privacy. You can also have them lined for premium room darkening capabilities for bedrooms and media rooms.

Hobbled Roman Shades

Relaxed and romantic, hobbled Roman shades (also known as teardrop or waterfall shades) have cascading folds that create a soft and textured appearance when raised. Hobbled Roman shades are perfect for adding a touch of warmth and charm to your living spaces. If you love patterned Roman shades, these window treatments come in various fabric styles for you to choose from.

Regarding function, hobbled Roman shades provide partial light filtering even when fully closed, allowing some natural light to seep through while maintaining privacy. With these shades, you get the best of both worlds.

Patterned Roman Shades

If you love the timelessness of Roman shades but want to add a bold twist, then patterned Roman shades are a fantastic choice. These shades feature a variety of eye-catching patterns, from stripes and florals to geometric designs and more. Patterned Roman shades add a pop of personality and style to any room. If you desire both subtlety and uniqueness, you can explore gorgeous patterns in subtle hues for the perfect middle ground. Hunter Douglas Provenance® Woven Wood Shades are a great example of Roman Shades that come in a wide range of exciting and stunning patterns.

The best part? No matter how you customize your Roman shades, they provide ample light control, privacy, and effortless operation.
