Roller blinds

Roller blinds can really lift the level of light in your home. Available in a variety of hues, they bring a block of colour or a burst of pattern to your interior when closed, and let the sunlight through when open.

These blinds can be fitted either inside or outside the recess, and can be rolled up to give you the full use of your window when the sun is shining.

Vertical blinds

With a simple twist of the cords, these blinds can shut out the light or welcome it in. Vertical blinds offer versatility when it comes to controlling interior brightness. The slats twist to allow the light to come in at different strengths – and that’s perfect if you’re looking to maintain privacy, too.

You might want to allow a few warming rays through, or draw the blinds completely to let it all stream in. Vertical blinds are also a great way to get the most out of your longer windows or patio doors, as they can drop right to the floor.

Day night blinds

These innovative blinds are fantastically versatile. Designed with two sheets of sheer fabric, the slats in-between create the appearance of a floating blind and allow the sun to shine through and into the room. You can twist the slats to sit at your desired level, or even draw the day night blind completely to let the rays in.

Choose these blinds in white or cream and reflect the light to create an even brighter look for your interior.
