Blinds were once a bland, style-less window accessory that was all function without much consideration for form. Thankfully, these days, you can still get the practicality and privacy you need from window blinds without sacrificing your aesthetic.
Here are five stylish and practical options for blinds:
- Room darkening slats – Get a true block-out effect with blinds specially designed to cover every inch of your window while preventing UV rays from penetrating through the slats. You can still go with classic white for your room darkening blinds or go for a dramatic effect with deep, rich hues.
- Sleek vertical panels – Blinds most often utilize horizontal slats or panels, so switch things up with vertical blinds. These long panels extend the length of your window and are pulled across to provide full coverage. Vertical panels can create an elongating allusion with stunning lines that draw the eye up and add interest and elegance to your space.
- Go Roman – Roman blinds are a timeless twist on fabric window treatments, providing endless style options to perfectly suit your space. Roman blinds look great up or down, adding a touch of sophistication to your home.
- Eco-friendly bamboo – Bamboo is a popular, versatile, and sustainable material for blinds that adds a natural element to any space. Bamboo can take on a variety of blind styles and features, from Venetian and Roman to motorized and smart technologies.
- Get smart – Yes, blinds can be integrated into your home’s smart systems! Set your motorized blinds on a schedule and use your phone to operate your blinds no matter where you are.
