Window decoration and covering

« Back to blog

The topic of screening windows is still relevant all the time. The key reasons are in fashion and functionality.

The method of screening windows is subject to the laws of fashion, which is constantly changing. In the past, you could only choose curtains and drapes. Today we choose from among many different designs in the groups of blinds and roller shutters. There are new solutions, wider colors and new textures of materials. New solutions appear because the tastes of customers and the way they arrange their homes and interior design change. These changes, in turn, affect what obscures the window space. Since we have a fashion for large windows, the covers need to be adapted to the whole interior design, so that there is no chaos in the arrangement.

Window covers are essential in any interior. They are characterized by minimalism and the ability to perfectly fit into the windows. Today, the most important thing is to provide maximum illumination of rooms, making them more spacious. However, without indoor covers, it would be unbearably hot on warmer days. In addition, the entire space would be exposed to the view from the outside, and each of us in our own home has a need for intimacy.

Pleated blinds - something special
In the offer of internal window covers, pleats attract attention. Their design does not resemble any of the classic blinds or roller blinds. The material is, as the name suggests, pleated. It is placed between two slats, which give it an aesthetic appearance (stacking) and are used to set the pleat in the right place on the glass.

What is special about pleats apart from the way their material is arranged? The fact that the cover material can be placed anywhere in the window space - at the top, bottom, in the middle, or extended over the entire pane. The slats slide along the frame and allow any solution. This helps a lot to protect the interior from the sun. During the day it not only moves across the sky, but also moves up until noon, and in the afternoon it lowers its position, changing the angle of its incidence. Thanks to the pleats, we cover the part of the glass on which the sun's rays are falling at the moment, and the remaining part remains open. Thanks to this, the interiors are full of natural light without the effect of overheating.

In which rooms to use pleats
The pleats can be used in any of the rooms in the house. The offer in the Knall online store includes a wide range of colors, which allows you to match the cover to the interior design. The pleats material also differs in texture; thinner and more translucent materials are available; they will work well in the kitchen or living room. You can also choose thicker materials, blackout more suitable, for example, in bedrooms. Pleats are especially recommended for children's rooms because they do not have any elements that can be detached and swallowed, e.g. beads of string mechanisms.

In order to maintain the aesthetic appearance of pleats, it is enough to regularly remove dust from them by cleaning them with a dry or slightly damp cloth. It is worth remembering that the material is antistatic and does not attract dirt to a large extent.
