Horizontal Sheers

Light and airy in both feeling and appearance, it’s easy to see why horizontal sheers are such a popular and well-liked product. They consist of two layers of sheer fabric, with vanes of solid fabric running horizontally between them. While the shades are open, the solid fabric lies flat and creates a slight undulating pattern on the sheer fabric, which is very pleasing to the eye. From the right angle, the sheer fabric seems to disappear, leaving the vanes to float weightlessly in the air. Sheer fabric provides a high level of visibility and natural light, while reducing the glare, protecting you and your home from harmful UV rays, and offering a limited degree of privacy. With it, you can experience the warm glow of the sun without having to worry about harsh sunlight or its associated health risks, and while maintaining your ability to enjoy the view from out your windows. When the shades are closed, the solid fabric is turned upward to block out light and provide increased privacy. This elegant solution will enhance the appearance of your home, while providing all the benefits that shades can offer. The one potential downside is that the horizontal surface of the solid fabric can be more difficult to clean than other types of shades that consist solely of vertical surfaces. However, if the benefits and lovely visual appearance of horizontal sheers are right for you, these fabric blinds make excellent window treatments for buildings in the Vancouver area.
