Wooden blinds invariably in fashion

« Back to blog

Wood has something unique about it, both literally and figuratively. We will not find two identical patterns of rings, two identical pieces. As a natural material, it has the ability to create a unique atmosphere in interiors and adapt to various architectural styles.

Maybe this is where the secret of his eternal youth lies in the fact that he remains in fashion when it comes to interior design. Wood has always appeared in projects, but its great return is undoubtedly the fashion for the Scandinavian style, in which natural materials, including of course wood, play a key role. Wood has one more very important feature - it can emphasize the character of interiors in which styles mix. And 2019 is precisely the fashion for mixing styles; in scandi boho or new nordic.

The everlasting fashion for wood also influences the fashion for wooden blinds. What the windows are covered with is one of the key elements in creating the character of the house. It must harmonize, in terms of style and colors, with the whole. Do not overwhelm, but complement harmoniously.

Features of wooden blinds
Wooden blinds are a unique window cover. Manufactured from natural materials, they belong to the group of covers that will work well in interiors of various styles.

The Knall online store offers wooden blinds in three product groups: wooden: from Siberian linden or bamboo, and laminated (external covering with decor). You can also choose the width of the louvers (slats), also in three groups - 25mm, 50mm and 65mm. You can choose different colors of blinds in the product groups. It is important that in addition to the natural shades of wood, we offer white and black.

When it comes to choosing a color scheme, you can assume two keys: the color of the windows or the style of the house. It is certainly safest to match the color of the wooden shutter with the color of the window frame. An extensive color palette will allow you to choose the most similar shade. White blinds will be perfect for white window woodwork, while black blinds will be perfect for dark graphite. The second option is a composition with an element of decor, e.g. with the color of the walls or furniture. Then the natural color of the wood can be combined with woodwork, for example in white.

The size of the rooms is also important when choosing the color of wooden blinds. Bright colors such as shades of white or light gray give a sense of spaciousness, the sunlight reflected from them spreads out in the room, optically enlarging it. Darker shades are considered cozier, but will keep some light in. Therefore, it is better to use them in more spacious rooms or located in more lit parts of the house.

In the next part of the blog, we will tell you about the relationship between the width of the slats and the size of the rooms and the methods of installing wooden blinds. It will also cover how to keep wooden blinds clean and in which rooms they will work best.
