Blinds and blinds vs curtains part. 1

« Back to blog

The topic related to the choice of the window protection method appears frequently in the questions of our clients. That is why we regularly devote our blog entries to him. Today we start comparing blinds/blinds with decorative curtains.

On the surface, the answer may be obvious - there are people who will always choose only curtains, and there are those for whom there are only blinds or shutters. It depends primarily on the taste and the way in which the interior is to be arranged. However, there are people who are hard to decide, and tastes, as we know, can change.

Therefore, in September, on the blog, we will compare these two methods of screening the windows, indicating the advantages of each solution. Today about blinds and shutters.

Advantages of roller shutters and blinds

The main advantage of roller shutters and blinds is that they fit perfectly into the window space. For this reason, they work very well in smaller interiors. Fitting into the window frame does not take up the space around the window and thus does not optically reduce the room. Thus, the interior becomes more spacious..

Roller blinds and shutters allow you to regulate the access of light to the room. This allows you to take advantage of natural light and, at the same time, reduce the temperature in the interior during hot weather. The slats of classic aluminum blinds can be tilted when the cover is completely closed; the same applies to the slats of wooden blinds. The material of the shutters, in turn, can be kept anywhere in the glass.

It is also worth remembering that covers such as roller shutters and shutters can be selected for atypical windows. This applies to roof windows - here we have products designed to cover this type of window. This also applies to windows with non-standard shapes. Here, pleated blinds, the so-called pleats that can be adjusted, for example, to bows.

When it comes to sizes, roller shutters / shutters will work both in smaller windows and with large glazing. Ordering custom-made covers has the advantage that when ordering, you can indicate the required size and thus match them to your individual needs. Another advantage is that the sizes of windows in individual rooms may differ, and thanks to ordering custom-made covers, all of them can have the same type of covers.

Roller blinds and shutters in interior styling

Here, attention must be paid to a very large selection. Among roller shutters and blinds, there are many subcategories that harmonize with interiors designed in various styles. Therefore, you can choose them for fashionable lofts, large minimalist spaces or smaller cozy rooms.

Wooden blinds and Roman blinds are characterized by the use in the production of natural materials. For this reason, they perfectly fit into the ecological trends of interior design. In addition, they harmonize with minimalist styles, but not without natural warmth. Aluminum blinds, fabric blinds or day / night blinds are, in turn, very universal. They can be matched to interiors designed in various styles.

The colors of both roller shutters and blinds are extensive, so it is also easy to match them to the interior design in this respect. The kitchen and living room like bright colors that do not dampen the very natural light. Children's rooms want to be colorful, and the bedrooms are more darkened. In the case of roller shutters and shutters, the color palette allows you to have one type of covers throughout the house, and at the same time to match them in color to individual interiors.
