Soft like drapery and delicately architectural, SmartDrape’s undulating sheer and fabric vane construction is a unique combination of stylish and livable.
Walk-through vanes
SmartDrape’s innovative individual vane construction allows for unimpeded walk through even when the shade is closed.
The poetry of moving light
SmartDrape is constructed from a series of individual fabric vanes suspended in a sheer to create a floating effect.
Easily go from a softened view-through with airy transparency to complete view-blocking privacy with a twist of the wand. Closed vanes provide filtered light for a cozy diffused glow. You control the atmosphere of your space to suit your needs and your mood.
Designed for easy maintenance
SmartDrape’s fabric panels are machine washable, ensuring effortless cleaning for your convenience.

“Don’t look anywhere else for your window coverings – not in Boulder or Denver. These people are professional, they deliver when they say they will, the products are superior, and their prices are great. The installers were on time, did a great job, and cleaned up afterwards. No drama – just great service. I wish I could get that everywhere I shopped. Love this business!”
