Best In-Show for All-Around Look and Functionality, Cellular Shades Provide Light-Filtering and Room-Darkening Capabilities While Showcasing Your Favorite Windows

Cellular Shades (a.k.a. honeycomb shades) are simply tops at preventing the heat from inside your home from escaping, while at the same time keeping the cooler air outside from coming in. This unique feature makes cellular shade window treatments perfect for helping you stay cool in summer and warm in winter, all the while decorating your windows in a fashionable style.

Honeycomb shades are available in light filtering or room darkening varieties. Light-filtering cellular shades let light gently filter in, but give you total privacy. The room-darkening versions block light and provide extra insulation.

When looking at cellular shades and honeycomb shades, you should know that they are available in single, double, or triple-celled shades. Cell sizes are either 3/8" or 3/4" tall and the more cells, the higher the cost, but the better the insulation and ability to block glare.

For larger windows you will want to choose the larger size honeycomb shade (which acts as a better barrier for energy efficiency) and the smaller sized cells for smaller windows.

As with Roman shades and roller shades, cellular shades can be pulled up for maximum visibility.

Honeycombs are also the most energy-efficient window coverings on the market today and its soft fabric look, paired with neat pleats creates a dramatic design statement.

Because honeycomb shades have a very slim profile, they fit nicely in almost any window in any room and look “at home” when used with any décor.

Additionally, they are great for use in full-sun location because they do not fade and provide substantial insulation with little weight: your rooms will stay warmer in winter, cooler in summer.
