Pirouette Sheer Shades
If you love the look of a Roman shade but want the light control of a blind, Hunter Douglas Pirouette® Window Shadings are the perfect choice. These shades offer a sculptural, modern look that adds a “wow” factor to any room in your Chicago Suburb home.
At Ogden Blinds, we recommend Pirouette® for homeowners who want a bold design that performs like a high-tech light filter.
How Pirouette® Works: The Invisi-Lift™ System
Pirouette® shades feature soft, horizontal fabric vanes attached to a single sheer backing.
- Floating Vanes: Using the Invisi-Lift™ system, the vanes appear to float gracefully with no visible cords.
- The “Blossom” Effect: When you open the vanes, they fold into a beautiful teardrop shape. This lets in soft, diffused light.
- Roman Shade Look: When the vanes are closed, the shade flattens out to look exactly like a premium Roman shade.
- Full View: You can roll the entire shade up into the headrail for a wide-open view of your yard.
Key Benefits for Your Home
Pirouette® shades are as smart as they are stylish. They solve common problems like glare and UV damage while looking like a piece of art.
Versatile Light & Privacy
You don’t have to choose between a view and your privacy. You can tilt the vanes to any angle. This lets you block the neighbors’ view while still letting the sun shine in.
Incredible UV Protection
Even when the vanes are open, the sheer backing filters out up to 81% of harmful UV rays. When you close the vanes, that protection jumps to 99%. This is the best way to keep your furniture and artwork from fading.
ClearView® Technology
If you want the best possible view, ask about the ClearView® sheer option. It uses a specialized black sheer fabric that makes the screen nearly invisible, making your outdoor view crisp and clear.
