Perhaps you hope to expand your interior design business and want to add motorized window treatments to your offerings. Either way, we at BRAVAS Baltimore not only think that’s a smart move, but we’d love to help you offer the most stylish, intelligent shading to your clients.
We think that your clients in Maryland, Washington, D.C. and Virginia will enjoy the variety of motorized shades on the market today: Just when someone assumes what a motorized shading system might look like, they learn that they are much more versatile than they might have imagined.

Wood Blinds
Wood blinds serve a diverse set of style needs. Someone might ask for wood shades to help them achieve that rustic feel for their kitchen. Or maybe they’re hoping to exude a zen aura with bamboo blinds in their listening room. Either way, clients are often shocked to see wood blinds integrate with smart home technology.

Exceed their expectations with Lutron’s seamless wood blinds, which come in a wide variety of slat stains and textures, as well as three valence styles. Due to “intelligent tilt alignment” technology, each slat on these blinds lifts and tilts in unison – even across multiple shades in your client’s home.
Patterns Galore
If wooden blinds don’t suit your client’s style, that’s just one example from the plethroa of Lutron’s custom textiles. You’ll also see many different patterns in their selection, including ribbed, striped or floral designs.
Excite vintage lovers and homeowners with eclectic style by showing off some textures, stripes and even paisley prints! A popping print could also add interest to an otherwise sleek, dark room, like an all-gray dining room.
Roller Shades
Roller shades work by coiling and uncoiling around a central rod. These varieties offer some of the most diversity of the Lutron shades, with sizes, opacities, colors and more to match nearly any every window in the home, including the small, oddly shaped or hard to reach areas. For quiet and whole-home consistency, your clients can count on extremely silent operation uniform movement of multiple shades. Give them the option of controlling shades through a flush-mounted wall keypad, for example, or provide them with a smartphone control app that our team at BRAVAS Baltimore can offer.
Honeycomb Shades
Though they look anything but utilitarian on the outside, these shades help filter light while conserving energy. A light-filtering, single-cell variety makes lighting appear softer and more peaceful, while concealed pockets within the shade trap air from escaping the home and lowering utility costs.
If your client is aiming for an even darker room, maybe for a media room, direct them to Lutron’s light-blocking, double-cell honeycomb shades.
Teched Out Design
Though your clients are primarily meeting with you to discuss interior design, they might also want to learn about all the technology extras that add to their shade’s ease of use.
Forget the stodgy beige dimmers from long ago: Your clients can get Lutron’s control options that look almost as elegant as their devices, whether they prefer elegant keypads or intuitive mobile apps.
