Keeping it simple is sometimes governed by the room and space that you have to work with, or perhaps budget too.
Where we start – when decorating a window regardless of the application – is looking at the function of a room. Who lives here, how is the room lived in and used, is it hot or cold, does it need to be easy to clean, does the room need to be well ventilated. All of these things are important when selecting the right window treatment.
The simple roller blind is a cost-effective way to dress a window if you’re on a budget. However, it’s not the best option if you’re after a thermal solution.
A popular choice in this instance is the cellular honeycomb blind. These are versatile throughout the house; suitable in the kitchen, bedrooms, living areas and bathrooms. For those that don’t like the fuss and bulk of drapery, but like the simplicity of a blind, then the honeycomb option could be suitable for you.
Motorisation of either honeycombs or roller blinds, is also a growing choice with customers, especially as they can be linked with Siri (Apple Home), Alexa or Google.
Shutters are also a popular and simple approach. Easy to clean and operate, they add style to any room and home. They’re particularly useful if you like to have a window open, as they’re magnetised closed. They don’t move in the slightest of breezes, so they are perfect for a bedroom where you may like to sleep with the window open.
Roman blinds can add colour, a bit of difference and give a room a lift; decorating with fabulous fabric for a Roman blind is like having a piece of artwork on your window. Roman blinds are great for odd windows, but perfect really for any window application.
Working through the process with you, any of the above, could be suitable for your home.
Custom Roman blinds
A classic decorative window covering. Blinds can be made from the latest drapery fabric, opening up your interior design and decorating choices to include a material of almost any colour, pattern or texture.
Honeycomb cellular blinds
The perfect energy efficient window covering solution, keeping a room warm in winter and cool in summer. Available as either light-filtering or block-out. Honeycomb blinds can be used on their own or coordinated with a sheer curtain to dress up the window.
Shutters
Shutters are adaptable to almost any window. They have a sophisticated, timeless look that suits any style of home. The louvres effectively direct light into a room while maintaining privacy. Shutters are also very easy to clean, making them a great custom window treatment for those with allergies.
