What Is Daylighting?
Daylighting is the phenomenon where the interior of the room is bright, filled with natural light. Traditionally, this is caused when the windows are bare, but that can lead to frustration with exhausting heat and glare. The magic of top down bottom up shades is that they deliver that valuable daylighting, while the majority of the window is covered. When top down bottom up window shades are slightly lowered from the top, the sunlight can stream in, illuminating its way across the ceiling. You’ll get the mood enhancing natural light you love, while enjoying the benefits of covered windows.
Privacy with Top Down Shades
The privacy of covered windows can make you feel comfortable and secure. But having your windows completely covered can also introduce feelings of confinement. What you need–is balance. Top down bottom up shades protect your privacy, but also allow you to enjoy tree top views and sky scenery as natural light fills your home. The majority of the window can stay covered, but the top of the window is open, offering a liberating feeling of open air. No cave-like vibes closing in on you, with top down bottom up window shades, just the right amount of coverage to put you at ease.
The Right Atmosphere for Every Occasion
There’s almost nothing better than the combination of covered windows + sunshine. It creates an environment of private living without sacrificing sunlight. Windows that face direct light? Cover the majority of the window throughout the day, as light enters. Top down bottom up cellular shades keep the exhausting heat and glare out. East or West-facing windows? Lower slightly from the top while the sun is intense. Then, for the portion of the day without direct light, you can bring the top down bottom up roman shades further down, customizing the amount of light while staying private. North-facing windows may need less adjustments, as you don’t have to block direct rays, but just want a continual balance of privacy on the bottom and lighting at the top.
