The Style and Convenience of New Cordless Roman Shades

If you’re torn between the sleek efficiency of blinds and the eye-catching drama of drapery, why not find a happy medium? Roman shades offer the best of both worlds, with the function and fit of blinds paired with the softer appearance and customization potential of curtains.

This fabric window treatment is designed to fit perfectly inside the window frame for a sleek, modern look. When it’s time to let in natural light, the fabric folds to create horizontal pleats or rolls, delivering the gentle, voluminous appeal of drapes and adding depth to your interior design.

Roman shades are typically raised and lowered with a drawstring, but new cordless models add convenience, safety, and a more streamlined aesthetic. What benefits will you enjoy when you upgrade to cordless window coverings?

The Cordless Function You’ll Love

If you’ve installed blinds or shades in the past, you’re probably familiar with the traditional cord system that you pull or release to raise and lower window coverings. 

While this system is functional enough, you might worry about the potential hazard of hanging cords in a house with kids or pets. Or you may prefer the clean look of a window treatment with a hidden drawstring mechanism. Either way, you’re sure to appreciate new cordless shades that have zero dangling cords in sight.

In addition to increasing home safety and improving the view, the cordless system for Roman shades provides incredible ease of use. All you have to do is push up the bottom of the shade, and it will stay open until you pull it back down for privacy. You can also choose versatile top-down, bottom-up models to allow for privacy and natural light.

Elegant Styles to Suit Your Home

Roman shades offer plenty of opportunities for customization, starting with the fold style. You can choose from designs that lay flat when lowered or those that fold and drape in a gentle cascade of fabric, called waterfall, teardrop, or hobbled shades.

You’ll also find an endless variety of textiles to choose from. Maybe you love the understated elegance of high-quality linen in a neutral hue. Perhaps you’re looking for loads of personality with a colorful, maximalist, patterned cotton print.

Whether your interior is classic or contemporary, you can match an existing aesthetic and put a personal stamp on your space with timeless Roman shades. Do you have a favorite fabric already picked out? Some manufacturers will even use a customer’s own material (COM) to craft one-of-a-kind window coverings.

Update Your Decor With Cordless Roman Shades

Home is your happy place, and the better it functions, the more you can relax and escape the demands of modern life. Adding Roman shades is a great way to achieve the soft yet streamlined look you prefer when it comes to window treatments.

With new cordless systems, you can enjoy increased safety and convenience. Don’t tangle with visible drawstrings when you can hide the mechanism and raise or lower your shades with a simple lift or tug as you breeze by on your way to more important things.
