Taking Advantage of the Gifts Natural Light Offers

Motorized Shades Intuitively Manage Daylight and Privacy

Incorporating natural light into a home’s design is increasingly popular among homeowners, interior designers, and architects. As homeowners’ desire for healthier home environments continues to evolve, natural light has become an integral part of the solution. Our bodies, after all, rely on cues from nature, such as natural light and darkness, to increase or diminish hormone levels, produce vitamins, and manage the sleep-wake cycle.

This same breathtaking light, however, can damage your home’s interior, resulting in faded floors, furniture, artwork, and beloved photographs. And, so, we tend to close our shades when direct sunlight enters a room and leave them there for the rest of the day. In the process, we miss out on all the benefits natural light brings.

Fortunately, there is a better way. It’s called motorized shades, and it’s reimagining how we manage daylight and darkness in our Manhattan, NY, homes.

Let’s explore the possibilities.
