    Roman shades come in a wide range of materials, styles and textures. You also select the finishing yourself. A sleek look with ribs on the front or a softer look with ribs on the back? Or nonchalant without ribs? The choice is entirely up to you. Read all about our Roman shades here.

  • Roller shades for a sleek touch

    Would you prefer a sleek and modern look? If so, these roller shades are for you. They have been a fixture in interior design for years and remain very popular to this day.

    • Less space needed at the top: a roller shade rolls up very compactly, making them ideal if you have less space at the top of your window.
    • Very low maintenance: roller shades are durable and require very little maintenance. A roller shade is easy to clean with a soft cloth but cannot be washed. Discover our maintenance tips for various types of window covering here.
    • Insulating properties: roller shades also have insulating properties. Laminated fabrics are ideal for keeping the heat in better during the winter, while screen fabrics in turn are great for keeping the heat out in the summer.

    Roller shades usually have a rather minimalist look, but make no mistake: the finishing possibilities are endless. At Inside, you can choose from more than 200 fabrics, numerous textures and colors, various transparencies, and more. Read all about our Roller shades here.
