Your Results:

 

Mostly As: Curtains

A versatile and simple window treatment, curtains are the perfect balance between elegance and affordability. You can maximise curtain’s visual appeal by opting for custom-fitted floor-length drapes in a quality thermal fabric. An additional sheer layer ensures greater control over privacy and light.

You could also consider adding a pelmet to conceal the curtain rod, creating a more finished and sophisticated appearance.

 

Mostly Bs: Venetian Blinds

If you’re looking for the attractive horizontal style of plantation shutters without the hefty price-tag, then you can’t go wrong with Venetian blinds. Modern Venetians have a timeless style, and the blade thickness and materials can be customised to suit your needs.

These window treatments look cool in any room, but make sure you choose a 100% waterproof timber-look Venetian in wet areas like your bathroom or kitchen.

 

Mostly Cs: Roller Blinds

The ultimate choice for custom window treatments, roller blinds are an on-trend, popular solution that won’t break the bank. Choose a fabric that suits your personal style, privacy, light, and insulation needs, or install dual blinds for the perfect combination. Block-out blinds are ideal for shift workers, kids’ bedrooms, or for extreme temperatures.

 

Mostly Ds: Vertical Blinds

Super practical, affordable, easy to clean, and pretty stylish to boot, vertical blinds are a great family and budget-friendly option. These treatments are perfect if you like to let lots of light through your sliding door or floor length windows, and they offer instant privacy when you need it.

 

If you want to avoid the hazard of the pull cord control, then consider automated movement — these options open or close with the push of a button!
