🏢✨ Project Spotlight - Street-Level Privacy for Portland Housing Center

Street-facing offices look great - but they can create an immediate privacy problem once furniture and day-to-day work begins. Portland Housing Center was finishing up a new office when they realized they needed a privacy solution that wouldn’t block natural light and ensure the space bright and welcoming.

Project goal

Deliver fast privacy and light control with a clean, finished appearance that matched the new workspace.

Shade package selected

• Sentry™ chain operated roller shades for dependable everyday use

• 3" white fascia for a crisp, built-in look

• 3% openness fabric to reduce visibility from outside while maintaining daylight

• Color: White to blend seamlessly with the office finish

Timeline

After a quick consultation to confirm privacy needs and fabric selection, we coordinated measurement, ordering, and installation - completed in just a few weeks to keep the overall office schedule on track.

What the client said

“The window shades look amazing! Thank you so much 😊. We are so pleased with them!!” Darcie Lennox - Office and Building Manager

“Agreed! They look great and the installer was quick & professional. Thank you for your help on this project!” Maddy Mackin Freeman

Final notes

This project is a great example of how the right roller shade spec can solve real-world privacy concerns without sacrificing the bright, open feel that makes an office enjoyable to work in.
