Meet Mark & Julie Ham

Welcome to Made in the Shade East Denver. We areย Mark and Julie Ham, and as local owners, we understand that living on the Front Range requires a unique approach to home design. In Denver, your windows aren't just for the viewโ€”they are your first line of defense against the 20% stronger UV rays and the "weather whiplash" that defines our Mile High climate. We specialize in high-performance window coverings, including shades, blinds, shutters, and custom drapery, all engineered to protect your interiors while elevating your homeโ€™s aesthetic.

Mark and Julie bring a powerhouse combination of professional expertise to your project.ย Markย spent years owning and operating several successful Jimmy Johnโ€™s franchises and a dry-cleaning business. This background in high-speed, high-quality service means he treats every installation with extreme precision and a "get it done right" mentality.ย Julieย leverages her previous career as a property manager to help clients understand how window treatments act as a permanent investment in their real estate. Her passion for interior design ensures that whether you are outfitting a historicย Park Hillย bungalow or a luxuryย Cherry Creekย estate, the final result will be both functional and fashion-forward.

When we aren't helping our neighbors transform their living spaces, we are fully immersed in the active Colorado lifestyle. With three busy boys involved in local sports, our family is always on the move. You can usually find us on the local tennis courts, hitting the golf course, or enjoying Denverโ€™s world-class outdoor spaces. Because we lead an active life, we know exactly which products offer the durability needed for busy households and which motorized smart-shades provide the ultimate convenience for tech-savvy Denver professionals.

We are excited to bring exceptional window coverings and personalized service to our clients in East Denver! ย Click here to schedule your free in-home estimate.

We look forward to meeting you and servicing your project!

The High Design Experience: How We Work

We believe the only way to choose the perfect window treatment for your Denver home is to see it in your homeโ€™s unique high-altitude light. Our concierge business model focuses on a free, no-pressure consultation in the comfort of your living room. Instead of guessing under fluorescent retail lights, our design consultants bring East Denverโ€™s most expansive mobile showroom directly to you. We evaluate your specific architectural challengesโ€”from the massive glass walls of aย Lowryย loft to the classic windows of aย Hilltopย manorโ€”ensuring you make a well-informed decision that protects your home and elevates your style.

Made in the Shade East Denver Value System

    • Mountain-Tested Quality:ย We don’t just select any manufacturing partners. We curate products from the worldโ€™s top window treatment companies that use high-quality materials specifically engineered to withstand the Front Rangeโ€™s intense UV radiation and extreme 40-degree temperature swings.

    • Precision Customization:ย Every window fashion we supply is custom-made to your exact measurements, color palette, and lifestyle. Whether you need specialized motorization for hard-to-reach vaulted windows inย Central Parkย or moisture-resistant shutters for a steamyย Cherry Creekย master bath, we ensure your windows are a reflection of your personal taste.

    • Concierge Service:ย We back up every project with Mark and Julieโ€™s signature “white-glove” service. Drawing on Markโ€™s background in precision operations and Julieโ€™s expertise in property management, we provide individualized care before, during, and after the installation. We aren’t just selling blinds; we are building relationships within our Denver community.

    • Mile High Value:ย Because we operate as a mobile showroom, we eliminate the high overhead of a traditional boutique storefront. This allows us to bring you industry-leading brands and luxury finishes at a much more competitive price point, passing the savings directly to your East Denver home.

       

    • Front Range Warranties: Our manufacturing partners provide elite warranties, many of which are limited lifetime. In a climate where the sun can warp or fade low-quality products in a single season, our warranties ensure you can invest in your window treatments with absolute peace of mind.

Our goal is simple:

Our mission is to provide an effortless shopping experience where you are able to make educated decisions about UV protection, thermal insulation, and smart-home automation for every room in your house.
