Vision and Revolve

Our Vision and Revolve collections offer beautiful banded light control. These options feature unique textures and clean lines, perfect for refreshing your view while keeping your home feeling comfortable and private.

Two elegant fabric layers

Opaque and sheer bands move past one another to balance your privacy and light. Simply shift the layers or raise the shade entirely to enjoy a clear view of the outdoors.

Test privacy in your space

The result depends on your room's lighting and the fabric you choose. Try a sample under evening light to ensure the fit works for your home’s specific privacy needs.

Achieving band alignment

Vertican zebra blinds rely on precise fabric movement to manage light. Getting the perfect band alignment depends on your window size and chosen operating system.

Understanding zebra shades

Vertican zebra blinds use alternating solid and translucent bands. Adjusting these layers creates filtered light or privacy.

They do not tilt like venetian blinds, so test the settings in your home.

Managing band alignment

Achieving consistent band alignment across multiple windows requires planning. Variations in width and height can affect how stripes line up.

Discuss these patterns early to clarify how your shades will look.

Choosing your controls

Select between manual clutches or motorization for your Vertican zebra blinds. Ensure your chosen system is compatible with your specific fabric and window size to maintain the functionality of the bands.

Frequently asked

What do you call these shades?

These are our transitional banded shades. We often use the names Vision or Revolve to describe the beautiful collections of fabrics that offer this unique, layered style for your windows.

Are these the same as sheer shadings?

They are different. Sheer shadings use tilting vanes for a soft, diffused look, while transitional shades use alternating bands of opaque and sheer fabric to adjust your light and privacy levels.

Do the bands tilt like a blind?

No, they shift their position as you operate the shade. This allows you to overlap the bands to create different levels of openness or privacy, providing a clean, modern look for your room.

Are these shades blackout?

Most transitional fabrics are designed for soft light. If you need a room to be very dark, we can suggest a separate blackout shade or another design to give you the rest you need.

Can neighbouring shades match?

We adjust your blinds to line up perfectly with your window and furniture. We consider your specific measurements and fabric choice to ensure a smooth, balanced look every time you use them.

Can these be motorized?

Yes, we offer wonderful motorized options for our transitional shades. It makes adjusting your light effortless, and we help you choose the right control for your home's specific needs.

How do I clean them?

Keep them looking fresh with a gentle dusting. Avoid scrubbing or soaking the fabric, as the material is delicate; a soft touch is perfect for keeping your shades clean for years.

What is the warranty?

Enjoy a decade of coverage on mechanical parts and three years on fabrics. It ensures your shades work beautifully and stand the test of time in your home.
