Specifying motorized shades seems simple enough, but the intricate design details can be intimidating even to an experienced design professional. Lutron is now offering its popular shades specifications workshop for architects, interior designers, and specifiers at no cost. Time-sensitive, 20-minute sessions hit key aspects of window treatment specification, help you avoid design pitfalls, and ensure you achieve your design intent.
Shades specifications seem simple enough on the surface – yet the intricate details of the design can be difficult to communicate, and even more difficult to manage during construction. Lutron is here to help. Please join us for a complimentary window treatment workshop to learn tips and tricks to manage motorized roller shade and drapery track coordination – a peek behind the curtain to avoid common pitfalls and ensure your design intent is achieved.
Each 20-minute session (outlined below) is designed to help you:
- Learn why Lutron shades are an integral part of the overall light and design experience
- Improve and enhance your specification, coordination, and construction
- Reduce scope gaps
- Minimize risk
- Deliver a smart, yet simple integrated light & shade solution to your clients
20-Minute Session Topics Include:
- FF&E Spec Details for Motorized Window Treatments
- Diving into Details: Custom Shades Solutions
- How to Hold the Spec/Risk Mitigation
- How to Achieve Full Black Out with Shading
- Fun with Motorized Drapery!
Plus, an AIA-accredited CEU is being offered immediately following the 20-minute sessions. This CEU – titled Living In A Material World: Specifying Shade Fabrics to Meet Occupant Needs - focuses on how to select the right fabric for both visual aesthetics (color & openness factor) and performance by space type.
The window treatment workshop is targeted to anyone responsible for writing and executing a motorized window treatment spec as part of their commercial projects – architects, interior designers, and specification writers – and can help ensure their design vision comes to life exactly as they expect it to.
The workshop will be held on February 18 from 3 pm–6 pm ET.
