Seeking Privacy and Natural Charm
This family of four had recently moved into a modern home near Lake Monona. While they loved the abundant natural light, they faced challenges with:
-
Excessive sunlight in their open-concept living room
-
Limited evening privacy
-
Desire for eco-friendly materials
-
Safety concerns with child-friendly, cordless options
-
A modern aesthetic to complement their style
Their goal was to find a window treatment that added natural warmth, privacy, and a cozy feel, all while aligning with their eco-conscious and modern design preferences.
Why Natural Woven Shades Are Ideal for Madison Homes
Made from bamboo, grasses, jute, and reeds, natural woven shades offer rich texture and relaxed elegance that complements Madison’s modern and eco-friendly interiors.
Here’s why they’re the perfect choice:
🌿 Sustainable Materials – Crafted from renewable and eco-friendly sources
🌤️ Soft Light Control – Provides natural light without the harsh glare
🔧 Customizable Designs – Choose from various weaves, opacities, and liners
🛡️ Enhanced Privacy – Add blackout or light-filtering liners for added control
👶 Child-Safe Options – Available with cordless and motorized features
In addition to woven shades, we also introduced the family to natural Roman shades, which combine the classic Roman shade look with the organic, textured appeal of woven materials.
Personalized In-Home Consultation: Curating the Right Solution
We brought our mobile showroom to their Madison home, offering full-size samples from top brands such as:
-
Alta Window Fashions
-
Horizons Window Fashions
-
Graber Window Treatments
The family selected a light-toned bamboo shade with a natural weave that fit perfectly with their modern, minimalist style. To provide privacy at night and allow soft light during the day, we recommended a light-filtering liner sewn directly into the shade.
Smart Motorization & Cordless Convenience
With young children in the house, safety was a top priority. We recommended motorized, cordless shades for ease of use and extra peace of mind.
Our solution included:
-
Rechargeable, battery-powered motors
-
Compatibility with Alexa and Google Home
-
Quiet, smooth operation
-
Automated scheduling to adjust shades during peak sun hours
This made the shades safer for children and more convenient for daily living.
Expert Installation: Precision and Perfection
Once the final measurements were confirmed, our expert installation team returned to fit the shades with precision. Using flush mounts and level brackets, we ensured that each shade fit perfectly inside the windows. We also synchronized the motorized system and showed the homeowners how to operate the shades via the wall-mounted remote or app.
Before & After: A Naturally Warm Transformation
The transformation was incredible. The bamboo shades added warmth, texture, and elegance to the room, while soft, filtered light created a welcoming ambiance for the family.
Key Results:
✅ Reduced glare while maintaining a bright, airy space
✅ Safe, cordless design for added child safety
✅ Improved energy efficiency, perfect for Madison’s changing seasons
✅ Hands-free motorization for added convenience
✅ A timeless, natural aesthetic that complemented the modern home design
