Custom Roman Shades in Boulder, CO

Choose a Roman Shade Style

Roman shades bring fabric softness to the window without requiring full drapery panels. The first decision is how you want the shade to look when raised. A rolling style clears more of the glass, while a stacking style keeps visible folds above the opening.

Plan Light, Privacy, and Room Darkening

Start with how the room should feel during the day and after dark. Light filtering fabrics can soften daylight, while room darkening is available only with selected fabrics and configurations. Room darkening is not the same as blackout, and light can remain at the edges or mounting gaps.

A qualifying dual opacity configuration can add a built in room darkening panel behind the front shade. That option depends on the selected product, fabric, size, operating system, and current availability.

Compare Fabric, Fold, and Finished Appearance

Fabric weight, texture, color, fold shape, and window dimensions all influence the final look. Soft textiles can show natural variation, including subtle wrinkles or fold differences. Reviewing samples at the window helps you see how the fabric responds to the room's light and surrounding finishes.

Inside and outside mounts create different relationships with trim, glass, and edge light. Accurate measurements also help confirm clearance for handles, cranks, and nearby hardware.
