THESE days, the abundance of choice you are given when it comes to window furnishings is almost overwhelming.
With the window industry continually creating innovative concepts and designs to suit almost every style, every taste and every fashion it can become a consumer’s nightmare.
To figure out exactly what furnishing would suit your living space, and one that is still within their budget Cail Lenard, Marketing Manager at Accent Blinds, recommends block out fabrics for blinds and curtains. ‘‘For the energy efficient, blockout fabrics for blinds and curtains are an easy way to save on your energy bill as well as help look after the environment,’’ Ms Lenard said. ‘‘The functionality behind this fabric means your home is kept cool in summer and warm in winter.’’
Along with blockout fabrics, Ms Lenard also recommends the Honeycomb Shade – a product which insulates and traps air in the cell structure. The design incorporates honeycomb like cells which trap the air, ensuring your home is kept cool in summer, warm in winter. ‘‘The result of installing this type of furnishing in your windows is, you save on energy costs and it adds a unique soft touch to your windows.’’
For your colour selection, Ms Lenard says to steer towards charcoal, soft grey and taupe tones. ‘‘These tones have a very inviting and sumptuous appearance, they will compliment your interior furnishings and create a balanced invigorating living space.”
