Automated Shades

Solar gain and privacy are concerns in both the modern home and the traditional, and finding the right shading aesthetic to solve both of these problems can be a feat. We will work with you and your design team to ensure that your automated shades are not only perfectly functional but also thoughtfully integrated into your home’s architectural details. Automated shading systems can be designed as a stand-alone, remote-controlled system or integrated into the home’s control system. The AVR team is recognized industry-wide as master shading engineers and installers.
