When shopping for shades at big box stores, homeowners often have to compromise. One window treatment might offer shade, but it compromises your views. Another might give you stellar views but provides zero privacy.
If you have ever wished that your window treatments could give you the best of both worlds (light and privacy), then transitional shades might be the latest upgrade for your home. At Stamper’s Blinds Gallery, our team is here to discuss what these shades are and their many benefits to help you decide if they are a good fit for your windows:
Transitional Shades 101:
Transitional shades are unique shading solutions that feature attributes of both shades and blinds.
At Stamper’s Blinds Gallery, we’re proud to offer different shading styles that offer a transition between blinds and shades.
- Designer Banded Shades are made of alternating bands of sheer and opaque fabric. As you raise or lower the shade, the fabric layers pass over each other, letting you adjust how much light you let in while maintaining your privacy.
- Sheer shades are also a great transitional shade style. They feature sheer fabric layers with opaque slats that open and close for privacy when needed, offering the best of both shades and blinds.
With these shades, you can easily go from soft filtered light to full privacy in seconds.
Shades with Energy Efficiency In Mind
While visually interesting, the contrast between sheer and opaque found in transitional shades aren’t just pretty. Allowing you to manage how much sunlight enters your home, these shades can help you regulate your home’s temperature to keep it naturally cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Over time, this can save you money on your energy bills.
Since our tri-state winters and summers can swing the pendulum, adding these light-filtering shades near Florence, Kentucky, to your home will make a world of difference.
Precise Control with Light-Filtering Shades
As mentioned, some window treatments are either great for preserving views or darkening rooms in terms of their benefits. You either get shade or sun. Transitional shades give you options to enjoy all of the above. You can close the opaque bands for privacy or open them for soft, diffused light with a simple shift. With these shades, it's like having dimmer switches for your windows!
Versatile Design
Have you ever seen a window treatment you loved but knew would clash with your home's aesthetics? The beauty of transitional shades is that they are a chameleon window treatment. That is, they effortlessly blend in with various home aesthetics. This makes them easy to add to any room in your home and even easier to customize them to your liking.
