Our Room Darkening Zebra Shades offer the same modern transitional design as our light filtering option, but with enhanced privacy and light control. These shades feature alternating bands of blackout fabric and sheer material, allowing you to transition between softened light and full room darkening by aligning the layered fabric bands. They can be raised like a traditional roller shade or adjusted to fine-tune the amount of light entering your space.
The blackout fabric bands are 3" high, paired with 2" sheer stripes, and are available in a variety of room darkening colors listed below.
