What Kind Of Blinds Are Best For Living Rooms?

When you’re installing blinds, you’ll want something that looks great while maintaining your privacy and total light control, and this is especially true in your living room.

As you and your family are likely to spend a lot of time in this central space, you’ll want to choose blinds that create a comfortable and welcoming environment.

Not sure what blind is right for your living space? Here are our top picks below.

Roller Blinds

Stay practical and stylish with roller blinds. They provide many benefits, making them a great choice for your living room:

• Affordability: Roller Blinds are generally a more affordable and pratical option.
• Customisable:They can come in a wide range of fabrics, colours and texture options.
• Perfect light filtration: With the diverse fabric options available, you'll be able to control the amount of light entering your room. Sheer fabrics allow for sunlight to enter while still allowing privacy, while sunscreen fabrics offer UV protection and prevent people from looking into your home. Room darkening, sun-blocking or blackout blinds are great if you have a home theatre or if you're looking for better insulation.
• Versatility: You could even opt for a double roller blind. These give you the ability to combine fabric options on one window. Want to pair sheer and blackout blinds? You can with the double roller option.
• Convenience: Roller blinds are able to be easily automated, so they're a great option if you want to stay in control of the light while you're away from home or too comfy to get up from the couch.

Roman Blinds

Go classic with an elegant Roman blind. These blinds offer similar benefits to rollers.

• Customisable: You'll have many colour, pattern or style options to choose from.
• Versatility: Like roller blinds, they can be automated for ease of control.
• Class: Their elegant appearance makes them a stylish accompaniment to your living room space.
• Light filtration: With either soft fabric or timber battens, they'll give you the control you want over light - and over your privacy, too.
• Easily concealed: Want to hide your Roman blinds when not in use? With a pelmet, you can tuck them away when they're raised.

Panel Glide Blinds

Panel glide blinds are easy to maintain and use – and that’s not all!

• Appearance: With vertically mounted blinds, you'll create the illusion of more height in your space.
