Bottom Up Shades by IUS Shades in New England

Bottom Up Shades are specialty shades designed to give you control over your privacy without sacrificing daylight. Unlike standard window treatments that open from the top down, Bottom Up Shades lift from the window sill upward—perfect for rooms where street-level privacy and sunlight are both important. Whether you live in a brownstone along Boston’s historic streets or a coastal home in Newport, these shades are tailored for environments where light and discretion must go hand in hand.

Our clients in Boston, MA appreciate how Bottom Up Shades let in soft morning light while blocking out the foot traffic below. In Newport, RI, homeowners often use them to enjoy a clear ocean sky view while shielding interiors from the harshest afternoon sun. From urban condos to waterfront retreats, these shades offer practical flexibility without compromising design.

The visual effect is subtle yet striking. Bottom Up Shades create a sense of balance in the room—allowing light to filter in from above while the lower portion of the window remains covered. This dual function not only protects your interior from glare and UV exposure, but also creates a more calming, functional space to live and work.

At IUS Shades, we bring decades of experience to custom-fit each shade for the unique architecture of homes and commercial properties across the six New England States. We measure, fabricate, and install your Bottom Up Shades with precision, ensuring smooth operation and clean lines every time.
