Top-down, bottom-up shades are exactly what they sound like — a window treatment that you can raise and lower from both the top or the bottom. Or you can also use a combination of both. The goal with a top down, bottom up shade is to meet all your privacy needs while still giving you access to natural light.
Enlightened Style is a brand MADE by Hunter Douglas, not carried by HD. Same factories as the HD line but exclusively made for Budget Blinds. According to Hunter Douglas, Enlightend Style isn't a brand that they carry.
