Designer Banded Shades

The entire collection of Hunter Douglas roller shades and solar shades are stunning options for any home. Still, if you are looking for something unique and breathtaking, then the team at White House Designs for Life recommends choosing Designer Banded Shades. Like Designer Roller Shades and Designer Solar Shades, these zebra shades are a wonderful minimalist window treatment. What sets them apart is the unique layered construction of opaque and sheer fabrics, creating a banded effect that allows for a different kind of window treatment.

Light Control & Privacy

Designer Banded Shades offer more lighting control and privacy options than Designer Roller Shades or Designer Screen Shades. This is because zebra shades are made of both a sheer and an opaque fabric. As the roller shades are raised and lowered, the solid bands align and overlap, creating an effect that is like classic vaned horizontal blinds. This allows you to have much more precise control over the privacy and light level in your home. The different overlap levels can still be achieved no matter how open or closed the window treatment is.

Fabrics, Light, & Shadow

The unique blend of solid and sheer materials makes Designer Banded Shades an attractive choice for any room in your home. The fabric selection includes the solid colors and textured weaves you’ve come to expect with two unique banded patterns. The Coastal and Evoke collections feature geometric patterns instead of alternating horizontal bands. These patterns still overlap for light and privacy control, and they also provide a beautiful artistic look to every window. In addition, sunlight streaming through these solar shades creates a fun play of light and shadow in the room. This unique lighting pattern has made banded shades a popular option for bathrooms.

Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades

Wide Range of Sizes

The smooth and precise operation of Designer Banded Shades makes them perfect for even the largest windows. They are available in widths from 12 inches to 107 inches and heights from 16 inches to 120 inches. With such variety, you can fit a Designer Banded Shade into every room in your home. The largest sizes are perfect for sunrooms or bay windows, while the smaller options are great for bathrooms and kitchens.

Customization

In addition to the fabric colors or patterns, you can choose from three different band sizes. The smaller bands allow for even more precise lighting control, while the larger bands allow for a better view when the sheer bands overlap. Our design team would love to show you the different sizes so you can select the perfect option for your zebra shade. You can also add a fabric-wrapped header as a sleek top treatment and choose from eight different hardware colors.

Operation

When it comes to choosing an operating system for your Designer Banded Shades, there are lots of things to consider. That is why White House Designs for Life offers corded, cordless, and motorized options.

Continuous Cord Loop: This clutch-operated system uses a single loop of cord, a pulley, and a rotating couch to raise or lower the zebra shade. This precision lift technology delivers smooth operation on even the most extensive shades.

UltraGlide®: A retractable wand or cord operates this system. You simply pull on the baton to raise or lower the solar shades. The lack of long cords and ease of operation make this a great child-friendly and pet-friendly option.

SoftTouch®: This system is battery-powered and features touch-and-go functionality. To raise your Designer Banded Shades, you push up on the wand, and to lower them, you gently pull down.

PowerView® Automation: With this fully motorized system, you can operate your shades with the touch of a button. PowerView® has a companion smartphone app, or you can opt for a wall-mounted interface or portable remote. In addition to easy operation, PowerView® allows you to create a pre-set schedule for your shades to open and close at specific times of the day.
