Design Basics: 7 Things You Need to Know about Roman Blinds

There are many blinds to choose from but roman blinds are one of the most popular types of window treatments. Aside from shielding your interiors from the sun and providing privacy, they add a touch of elegant minimalism in any space.

Let’s take a closer look at Roman blinds for commercial establishments.

 

1. Roman Blinds Are Easy to Operate

 

Roman blinds are one of the easiest window treatments to operate. You can control them to open and close whenever you want. Meaning you can draw your blinds in the mornings to let the natural light into your home and let it down as the evening draws in. You can use a cord, chain or chain and pulley to pull your blind up and down; you can also have a simple pull cord to operate your blinds.

 

2. They Are Available in the Fabric of Your Choice

 

Depending on the look you want to achieve for the space, there’s a fabric that will suit your Roman blinds well. Roman blind fabrics are very easy to keep clean, so they won’t give your cleaning staff a hard time.

 

3. They Are a Flexible and Adaptable Window Treatment

 

It’s perfect for those spaces that don’t lend themselves to space-consuming curtains. Roman blinds are easily adaptable to the space’s function, whether for rest and relaxation, learning, working, and more. They can fit in the smallest windows and be positioned using a cord, pull cord or nylon chain.

 

4. Can Suit Any Style of Window

 

Roman blinds are available in any size you need. Whether you have a bay or rectangular window, or you want a wide or narrow blind, you can find a style of roman blinds to suit the property’s existing windows.

 

5. They Are Great for Saving Energy

 

With the vast majority of Roman blinds available, you can pick one in a light fabric, making them excellent for temperature control. They can be let down when it’s hot outside, keeping the interiors nice and cool. This then helps your AC to not work double, saving you energy costs. You can also choose a lined fabric to trap in the heat, keeping your property cosy and warm on cold winter nights.

 

6. Available in a Wide Range of Colours and Patterns

 

You can choose from a wide range of styles and colours for Roman blinds. They are available in various patterns too. You can match your Roman blinds to your current décor or have them compliment your existing colours and design.

 

7. They Are Very Easy to Install

 

Roman blinds are available in various styles; some you can easily cut to size and fit yourself, some will require a little construction knowledge and may need to be fitted by a blind fitter. Either way, most Roman blinds are very easy to install, so if you’re handy with a screwdriver, you could fit them yourself.

Conclusion

Roman blinds are definitely a good choice for spaces that need a minimalist window treatment. They can perfectly complement your interiors’ theme and design, too. These window coverings are great for temperature control, are easy to install and easy to operate.
