Some interior design trends come and go, while others have long-term staying power. Since custom window treatments are an investment, the choice is easy: Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades, also known as zebra shades, fall into that second category. They’ve been around for a while and have held their place as an efficient, effective, and attractive window treatment.
