Curtains or blinds – blinds or curtains? Either or, you can instantly enhance or update a room by adding the right one. But what exactly are the right curtains or blinds? Adding a stylish pair of custom made curtains can bring the whole room together and create a finished look. At the sawme time, blinds can be very eye-catching with more of a practical edge.
Deciding on the right curtain and blind can make a dramatic difference to both the appearance and feel of a room. Do you want the window dressing to be the focus of the room by injecting colour? Or, do you need the solution to be more neutral so you can change your furniture without having to replace the curtains?
Design is always full of choices and options and we have a wide range of curtains, blinds and all the accessories you need to dress any window and any space. So how can you choose the right product for your room?
Before deciding on a particular type of curtain or blind it’s worth considering what you are trying to achieve in the room. Are you looking for practicality, a brand new style for your room or maybe a little of both? Are you trying to keep a room cosy in the evenings or shade a bedroom from early morning sunshine?
The first step is to determine the use of the curtain or blind. Deciding on your room’s requirements from the beginning will help you make the right choice – ensuring you get the most from your window furnishing. Secondly, think about the appearance and size of your window – this will help you to decide on the most suitable type of furnishing (curtains or blinds).
Heavier curtains – draw the eye, transforming a large window into a furnished feature.
Lighter blinds – can add subtlety, making a small window appear larger.
