A closer look

Soften the daylight. Check the privacy.

Explore shades offered with light-filtering fabrics for a softer daylight effect. Color, weave and the selected shade’s construction influence how much light passes through and how much you can see through the material.

Compare a physical swatch with your room’s finishes and lighting. Consider privacy during the day and after dark with the lights on, then choose the exact fabric, mounting position and available controls in the product customizer.

Good to know

Do light-filtering shades provide privacy at night?

Privacy depends on the fabric, its operating position and the lighting on both sides of the window. Review the selected material and your room’s needs rather than assuming every light-filtering fabric offers the same privacy.

How do I compare light filtering with blackout?

Compare the model’s stated light control, fabric texture and view through the material. If reducing incoming light matters more than filtered daylight, review the blackout options and plan the window coverage as well.
