Down with the heavy, dusty curtains

When TVs were big and black and white, there was a very touching tradition - covering the screen with a white lace napkin. Nobody does this now. Firstly, it is no longer possible to put a vase on top of modern TVs, and secondly, it is somehow not stylish, not solid. As they say - fashion has passed …

But fashion has not passed, fashion has simply changed! And it changed not only to such obvious interior attributes as napkins, but also to stone elephants, red cans with white polka dots for spices, etc. Fashion is changing to "clothes" for windows.

The French, as well as in ordinary clothes, lead and set the tone in window fashion. In Paris, vertical blinds made of dense fabrics of dark colors (Skiff 132, Golden lotus 804, Orient), decorated with gold (Stanford), lambrequins are in demand. It is believed that the color of gold brings wealth and good luck to the house.

The Germans, as always, remain not only conservative, but also practical. One of their latest developments is roller blinds. They are equipped with a special right-hand or left-hand control mechanism, the fabrics are impregnated with a dust-repellent compound.

Their main advantage is that the integrity of the pattern is preserved, and blackout fabrics allow 100% darkening. Roller blinds are good to use both independently and in combination with traditional curtains.

But you don't have to be strict to be restrained and calm! For connoisseurs of the orient, meditation and tea ceremonies, there is a corresponding style. For example, Chinese characters are embroidered on fabrics under the symbolic name "China poem" and, moreover, are folded into a real Chinese poem.

The restrained interior in the spirit of the East allows you to create Japanese curtains. Their distinguishing feature is minimalism, restraint and brevity. They represent a screen completely covering the window, which consists of wide lamellas (from 60 to 150 cm.), Sliding similarly to the doors of a wardrobe-compartment. Bamboo is depicted on the lamellas. There are only two colors here, but the most important ones are black and white. Not just the beauty of contrast, but philosophy: earth and sky, man and woman …

When choosing blinds, it is necessary to take into account not only the interior features, but also the purpose of the room:

For kitchen horizontal blinds made of plastic and aluminum are suitable. In addition to standard horizontal blinds, we also offer blinds from the special Isolite system. The blinds are attached close to the window sash, which allows the window to be opened freely in any position. Also, this system has mono-command control, which simplifies its use. The window sill remains free, which is not unimportant for the kitchen.

Also an ideal choice for the kitchen are vertical blinds made of Teflon coated fabric that repels grease, dirt, dust, odors, and Trevira fabric that is easy to wash in the washing machine. Roller blinds in the kitchen are very convenient because they are easy to operate and completely retract into the cassette, which allows you to leave your windowsill free. Roller blinds of the Rollite system will become part of your window, a beautiful accessory attached to the sash.

For bedroom curtains made of fabric in soothing colors are suitable. The combination of wave-shaped white slats of vertical Shapella blinds with regular blue slats looks beautiful. For the bedroom, vertical blinds in pastel colors with a light, slightly "blurred" impressionist style (Pallazo 102) are ideal.

To the children's room curtains in bright colors are suitable.

To create a representative living room style, use wooden horizontal blinds or vertical wicker wood. Wooden blinds add elegance to any space. They are made of American linden and go well with any furnishings.
