Two over-sized window boxes which are large enough to stand in, create a new front façade, while providing a dramatic extension of the master bedroom suite and views to the City and ocean beyond. The intentionally asymmetric window boxes are clad with white concrete board to enhance their abstract presence as they provide a diversion by camouflaging the existing residence.

Most shades, blinds, shutters or curtains allow some type of light through when they are closed which can be very frustrating, especially if you’re trying to take a nap or enjoying a movie in a home theater. Or with the kids being back in school, it’s sometimes hard to get them to bed early with the evening light shining in the room. We have a solution. That is what blackout window treatments were made for. You can get a variety of products as “blackout”, such as; curtains, shades, blinds, roman shades, honeycomb shades, roller shades, vertical shades, and specialty shades (silhouette, pirouette, luminette). Even certain type of Shutters provide blackout. Blackout window treatments have a variety of benefits than just blocking natural light, which make them a wise choice in any home. At Abda, we have a huge selection of blackout window treatments that block most natural light from entering your window, keeping bedrooms, nurseries and media rooms as dark as you like. With a variety of customizable options, blackout window treatments are available as insulating cellular shades, stylish roller shades and fashionable fabric curtains. Each of these window treatments can be personalized with color and control options perfectly suited to your room and style. We work with clients in the Central Indiana Area.

Cascade style, Solarweave® fabric, motorized Roman Shades with Radio Frequency Remote Control Operation

Our 5% SheerWeave Super Value Solar Roller Shades are custom made out of sun control fabric that shields your room from 95% of harmful UV rays - protecting your furnishings from sun damage. These shades are modern, stylish and energy efficient. The 5% openness is designed to diffuse light, reduce glare and help control solar heat gain, while still providing a view to the outside.

We installed custom sun shades into a new restaurant in Lowertown, Saint Paul. The brick arches and high windows presented a unique design challenge. Our goal was to maintain the beautiful brick charm while diminishing the blinding sunlight. Roller sun shades on the lower windows with contoured sun fabric in the arches was the solution. Note the attention to detail along the brick edges with fabric install. The results were beautiful!
