Roman Shades

Roman shades with soft fabric folds on a living room window

Roman Shades – Soft Folds & Tailored Style

Roman shades combine the softness of fabric with the simple operation of a shade. When lowered, the fabric hangs flat or in gentle folds; when raised, it stacks into neat horizontal pleats, giving your windows a clean, tailored look without the bulk of traditional drapery.

Because Roman shades sit close to the window, they are ideal for spaces where you want a sleek, compact solution that still adds warmth, colour and texture. They work beautifully in living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and home offices, and can be made subtle and minimal or bold and decorative depending on the fabric you choose.
