WHAT ARE TOP DOWN BOTTOM UP SHADES

This functionality helps you control your light and privacy levels by choosing whether you want light and visibility coming from the bottom or top of your window.How to Choose Top Down Bottom Up Shades
Top Down Bottom Up Shades work well in spaces you want to fill with natural light from above, while maintaining a certain level of coverage from below by lowering the shade from the bottom, up.
