Windows NXT by Antex Designs offers the next generation of sleek, high-tech window coverings in thousands of fabrics and a combination of hard and soft window coverings. Two of the products, Celebration and Revolution, are available in Canada exclusively through Antex.
Available to designers and decorators through Antex Designs in Canada and the United States, Windows NXT provides unique décor options for closet doors, window coverings and room dividers to enhance traditional or contemporary homes, condos, lofts and offices.
Sleek hanging fabric panels with an aluminum frame can be made in thousands of fabrics, allowing easy room updates by season or just because. Celebration is an excellent alternative to closet doors and room dividers as it can be customized to enhance any décor. The aluminum frame gives it a modern, high-tech look yet the fabric inserts soften the room and add colour and texture.
Application: Windows, doors, closets, wall décor, room dividers, office cubicles.
Fabrics: Any of Antex's fabrics.
Mechanism: Specifically extended mechanism keeps fabric taut.
Revolution is a dual-purpose fabric window treatment that not only moves horizontally like a drape, but also vertically like a Roman shade. Ideal for sheer and lightweight fabrics, Revolution is a versatile and innovative way of accenting a room.
Application: Windows, doors.
Fabrics: Sheers, tightly woven light fabrics.
Mechanism: Raises and lowers the drapery by lift cords that wrap around a rotating shaft with a clutch to hold the drape in place. A traversing system also moves the drapery side to side.
Motivation is a fabric panel system that hangs from a track, opening and closing from side to side. Use it to cover windows or sliding doors as an alternative to drapes and sheers or as a dramatic room accent. Motivation can also be used as a room divider, making it ideal for loft spaces.
Application: Windows, doors, closets, wall décor.
Fabrics: Any of Antex's fabrics.
Mechanism: Vertical sliding panels attached to moveable carriers on a multi-channel quality aluminum tracking system. Panels slide from side-to-side either with a wand or corded system for opening, closing and stacking. Single stationary panel for one-way draw and stationary panels on each side for split two-way draw.
Creation offers the ability to darken a room, bathe it in diffuse light or let the sun shine in. Creation combines sheer weave fabric with alternating transparent and opaque horizontal stripes on a rolling shade mechanism. Pull the cord to line up the opaque stripes and the view is hidden; line up the transparent stripes and the view is visible.
Application: Windows, doors, skylights.
Fabrics: Sheer weave fabric only.
Mechanism: Raises and lowers the shade by lift cords that wrap around a rotating shaft with a clutch to hold it in place.
Inspiration is a vertical blind masked in sheer fabric. The sheer fabric softens the look of a vertical blind, making it look more like a drape and complementing a room’s colour and fabric choices. When the blinds are closed, Inspiration provides room darkening and privacy; when the blinds are open, it filters natural light.
Application: Windows, doors.
Fabrics: Sheers only.
Mechanism: Operates similar to a vertical blind. Sheers can be installed either on existing verticals or without vertical vanes at all, giving it the look of ripple fold sheers.
