This picture shows a shot at dusk of screens covering a set of bay windows. The sunlight is still strong enough to pass through
the screens, but not so bright that it made the cherry color stain into a black silhouette . . .
Here are those same bay windows opened wide to look out onto a bright and sunny Seattle day. Note that with this concept, the entire
expanse of the window is open, there is not curtain or blind stack to rob you of even a square inch of your view . . .
These screens (there were 16 all told) were made for every window in a house in Atlanta. It was a simple yet elegant design done in a dark
stain . . .
Here is the kitchen in that same house in Atlanta. Even the kitchen door window received a screen to match the rest of the house . . .
. . . and from the same house, but on the outside looking in as the houses interior lights back light the screen.
The lower screens provide you the privacy you would need, while the uppers screen is made up of a dense gridwork without Shoji paper.
This design allows you to open the windows behind the screens to let in fresh air while the screens still block viewing from the outside.
Here are those same windows, but opened.
This was a unique application. This screen, while it is in this position on the wall, covers up an opening in the wall itself. In that
opening is a small alcove where the owner's Digital Projector and stereo equipment are kept. When the project is in use, the screen comes
off of the wall and hangs in the middle of the room from the ceiling. The back side of the screen acts as a projection screen for
the digital projector . . .
And here you can see the shoji screen acting as a movie screen. Obviously there isn't a gridwork on the back, but there is a backing
that was added to the screen because the shoji paper would be too translucent to make a good projection screen by itself.
The two lower screens slide back and forth and have the shoji paper for privacy while the upper screen
is paperless for a view out the window.
Here are two window coverings in a nice Sedona Red stain. They are ready to be shipped.
This customer purchased two screens in a stain to match a piece of furniture. They used the screens to cover up a bookcase that resides
in that small alcove.
