Roman Shades & Blinds

As a stylish and purposeful window treatment, Roman shades have a place in nearly every room of your home. Roman shades work great in small rooms because their clean lines and window-hugging design doesn’t overpower the space. Yet, they are also great for large windows in a living room or dining room because of their easy maneuverability and the advantages they have for the room’s interior design as fabric is a great way to play with or add color, pattern, texture, and depth to a design scheme. Roman shades also pair nicely with drapery, side panels, or a valance/cornice for a polished window fashion customized to your specific tastes. Furthermore, they can be built to fit specialty-shaped windows and most styles of doors including sliding glass doors, patio doors, and French doors. Contact an expert at Gotcha Covered Seeview Blinds and Shutters today to discuss the benefits of Roman blinds and shades and why they just might be the perfect shade for every window in your home.

What are the Different Types of Roman Blinds & Shades?

Roman Shades can be broken down into two categories based on how the fabric collects at the top of the treatment when the shade is raised: stacking and rolling. The stacking style of Roman shades are the traditional design wherein the fabric folds rest upon themselves, stacked horizontally at the top of the window frame when the shade is open. The rolling style of Roman shades have a round tube at the top of the window and the stacked fabric is rolled around it as the shade is drawn open. Both styles look similar when closed, however, when open the operational differences become apparent as stacking shades have folds of fabric at the top while roller shades have a sleeker look with the bulk of the fabric rolled around the header tube and largely out of sight.
