At Origami Shades & Draperies, we design and manufacture custom zebra shades that combine modern style, privacy, and flexible light control. Every zebra shade is made to measure, giving your windows a clean, elegant look with a perfect custom fit.

 

Zebra shades are one of the most popular window treatment options for homeowners who want the softness of fabric shades with the adjustable control of blinds.

 

What Are Zebra Shades?

 

Zebra shades, also called dual sheer shades or zebra blinds, are made with alternating sheer and solid fabric bands. When the bands overlap, natural light filters through the sheer sections. When the solid sections align, the shade provides more privacy and light control.

 

This unique design allows you to easily adjust between open light, filtered light, and privacy without fully raising the shade.

 

Custom Zebra Shades for Every Home

 

Every zebra shade we make is custom-built based on your exact window size, fabric preference, and design goals.

 

We offer:

• Light-filtering zebra shades

• Room-darkening zebra shades

• Blackout zebra shade options

• Cordless zebra shades

• Motorized zebra shades

• Custom colors and fabric textures

​

Each shade is designed for smooth operation, clean lines, and a modern finish.

​

Benefits of Zebra Shades

​

Zebra shades are a great choice for both style and function.

​

Key benefits include:

• Adjustable light control

• Modern and elegant appearance

• Improved daytime privacy

• Soft filtered natural light

• Easy operation

• Works well in living rooms, bedrooms, offices, and dining areas

 

Their layered design makes them a strong alternative to traditional blinds, roller shades, and curtains.

 

Motorized Zebra Shades

 

Zebra shades can also be upgraded with motorization for added comfort and convenience.

 

Motorized zebra shades allow you to:

• Control shades with a remote

• Operate shades through smartphone apps

• Connect with smart home systems like Alexa and Google Home

• Schedule shades to open and close automatically

• Control multiple rooms at the same time

 

Motorized zebra shades are especially useful for large windows, high windows, and modern homes where convenience matters.

 

Light Filtering and Room Darkening Options

 

Zebra shades can be customized based on how much light and privacy you need.

 

Light Filtering Zebra Shades

 

Light-filtering fabrics soften sunlight while keeping your room bright and comfortable. They are ideal for living rooms, kitchens, offices, and common areas.

 

Room Darkening Zebra Shades

 

Room-darkening zebra shades provide stronger privacy and better light reduction. They are a good option for bedrooms, media rooms, and spaces where more light control is needed.
