Cellular Shades vs. Roman Shades

Deciding on the best window treatments for your house can feel like a journey. First, you must choose the overall style you like, such as shutters, blinds, or shades, and then you must decide which specific styles within that collection best fit your home. For example, Roman shades and cellular shades are two popular styles beloved by many homeowners.

These shade styles are both gorgeous and crafted to deliver various benefits. They fit in effortlessly with most homes. Of course, each has its own unique benefits that make one better than the other for your space. To help you make the right choice, our All About Blinds team discusses cellular shades versus Roman shades.

Known for their classic, decorative look of cascading fabric folds that stack neatly together, high-quality Hunter Douglas Roman shades are excellent for those who adore a luxurious aesthetic. Available in various colors and cuts, these shades can easily fit the style of your home. Vignette® Roman Shades and Alustra® Woven Textures® Roman Shades also come with different opacity levels, allowing you to achieve your perfect levels of filtered sunlight or room-darkening shade.

Additionally, Hunter Douglas Roman shades have various operating styles to enjoy privacy and light control your way, including:

PowerView® Automation.
Push/pull system.
Retractable wand.

Simple yet powerful, Hunter Douglas cellular shades offer a powerful functional punch within a simple shade. With hundreds of fabric options ranging from subtle neutrals to bold hues, our team can tailor these shades to your home's aesthetic and customize them to fit unique window shapes. What sets cellular shades apart from standard shades is their energy efficiency.

Both Duette® Cellular Shades and Sonnette® Roller Shades, a hybrid between a cellular and roller shade, feature a honeycomb-like construction that traps air right at the window for year-round temperature regulation. This helpful feature means a cooler home in summer, a warmer one in winter, and even reduced energy bills over time! Available with several innovative operating systems to enjoy effortless light control and comfort, such as:

PowerView® Automation.
Corded loop.
Push/pull system.

So, when it comes to cellular shades versus Roman shades, which is the right fit for your home? Both styles offer high-quality designs, ample light control, and privacy, especially when you choose from a premium brand like Hunter Douglas. However, Roman shades are the way to go if you prioritize style, versatility, and understated elegance.

Conversely, cellular shades are your match if you prioritize functionality and energy efficiency. Of course, you can always add each style to different rooms. Ask our team how to create a cohesive look if you’re interested in both styles!

Whether you choose Hunter Douglas Roman shades, Hunter Douglas cellular shades, or a blend of both throughout your home, these high-quality shades beautifully transform light, provide exceptional privacy, and operate efficiently at your window. With trusted Hunter Douglas artisanship, these shades are an investment you’ll enjoy for years.
