Project Overview

• Client: Creative Marketing Agency, Cherry Hill, NJ
• Challenge: Stark, modern office lacking warmth; harsh midday sunlight producing glare on monitors; desire for sustainable materials.
• Goal: Improve comfort, reduce glare, and elevate aesthetics with natural light and an organic touch that aligns with the brand’s environmentally conscious identity.

Step 1: Consultation & Vision Planning

We began with an in‑office consultation, bringing a curated library of natural shade and fabric samples, including
natural Roman shades, Woven Wood Shades, Bamboo Window Shades, and grasscloth-inspired weaves within our natural woven collection.

The agency’s priorities:

• Maintain an open, airy feel while reducing screen glare.
• Use sustainable, renewable materials.
• Add warmth and visual interest to white‑and‑glass interiors.
• Use cordless and motorized options for safety and convenience.

Step 2: Recommended Solutions

1. Woven Wood Shades — Custom‑crafted from bamboo, jute, and grass fibers, these shades soften sunlight and introduce organic texture. We selected tight weaves for workstations to reduce glare and looser weaves for lounges to preserve a sun‑washed feel.
2. Bamboo Shades — Installed in client meeting rooms to spotlight the firm’s eco‑conscious brand. The tonal bamboo patterns complemented natural wood furniture and matte black hardware.
3. Motorized Lift Systems — Programmed on daily schedules: lower during peak sun and raise in the morning and late afternoon. We enabled voice and app control for on‑the‑fly adjustments.
4. Light‑Filtering Liners — Tailored per zone to fine‑tune brightness, reduce monitor glare, and keep a warm, welcoming glow.

Where privacy was essential—such as video conference spaces—we paired woven woods with lined Roman shades for extra opacity while maintaining a cohesive natural aesthetic.

Step 3: Installation & Finishing Touches

Our installers performed detailed, on‑site measurements to account for texture thickness and weave variation. Hardware was selected to match existing finishes and allow precise, level installs across long window banks.

The natural woven fabrics introduced organic pattern and helped soften acoustics common in open offices. As daylight moved, the texture created subtle, calming light play—an effect the team described as spa‑like without sacrificing productivity.

Step 4: Results & Impact

• Increased Comfort: Targeted liners and tighter weaves reduced glare and eye strain without a closed‑in feel.
• Improved Client Impressions: Visitors noted the warm, refined atmosphere that matched the agency’s brand.
• Sustainability Alignment: Renewable materials—bamboo, grasses, jute—reinforced the company’s environmental values.
• Everyday Convenience: Motorized controls simplified mid‑day adjustments and presentations.

Why Natural Woven Shades Are Ideal for Offices

• Warmth & Texture: Natural fibers soften modern glass‑and‑steel interiors.
• Scalable Light Control: Pair with light‑filtering liners or opt for room‑darkening in media spaces.
• Safety & Ease: Cordless lifts and motorization support ADA‑friendly, clean operation.
• Brand Storytelling: Materials like bamboo and jute underscore eco‑friendly values for clients and staff.

For layered control, many businesses combine woven woods with roller shades behind the same opening—rollers for presentations and woven textures for daily use. If solar control is the top priority on south‑facing glass, consider pairing natural weaves with solar shades in high‑glare zones while keeping the organic look in shared areas.
