The right blind for you and your home

Every window needs protection – whether it be for security or privacy, window coverings are often a major financial outlay that should be considered as a longterm investment.

At BBC Blinds, the essence of a good window covering design incorporates three elements – style, form and function.

Style
The aesthetic of a window covering is a top priority. Style needs to address the look from both the inside and outside of your home, giving guests or potential buyers an opportunity to see the potential your property has to offer.

Making sure the window covering complements the home’s internal colour scheme and furnishings will create flow, adding texture and character without dominating the space and making it feel smaller.

To create an overall “wow” factor, use accessories, art and smaller furniture items as these items are often inexpensive and easy to chop and change.

Form
No one window covering in a home will be the same as building design and architecture will mean windows vary in size, shape and positioning.

As a result, many modern homes have two or three different types of window coverings in the same room.

For example, you could have plantation shutters on highlight windows, motorised block-out roller blinds across the main
windows in living or private spaces or complimentary floor-to-ceiling sheers to add softness.

Function
Function is the most important aspect of all given the pace of our increasingly busy lives.

The products must be easy to use, lowmaintenance, offer insultation from both hot and cold climates and be safe for children and pets.

BBC Design offer a personalised service, working collaboratively with clients to deliver appropriate solutions and beautiful living spaces.
