Cascading Designs VS Flat Stack

Did you know there’s more than one style of roman shades? Two of those design choices refer to the folds: waterfall and flat stack. Each offers their own unique look, but the function remains the same. Here’s how: Roman shades fold as they rise and then unfold and fall into place when they are lowered. When choosing roman shades, you decide the look that works best for your space. Whether it’s the softer, curved look of cascading romans, or the uniform look of flat stack, they both will add beauty to your home.
