LIGHT AND PRIVACY CONTROL - KEY FACTORS WHEN SELECTING BLINDS
Light control is the number one consideration for most homeowners when choosing a window covering. Whether to darken a bedroom, reduce glare in a living room, or utilise natural light to brighten a space, different opacities in a window covering can filter or deflect sunlight depending on your needs. Luxaflex® Duette® Shades feature an extensive collection of fabrics available in sheer, translucent and blockout opacities. As shown below, they are a stylish window covering solution that can be used to achieve different levels of light control.
Ultraviolet light in sunlight causes damage to your furnishings, fading wooden floors, furniture, upholstery, carpet and artwork. Window coverings such as Luxaflex® Silhouette® Shadings or Luxaflex® Luminette® Privacy Sheers, help protect against these damages to your home by filtering or completely shielding the light.
Maintaining day and night privacy is an important consideration for many homeowners, particularly for bedrooms and bathrooms. With higher density living on the increase around Australia, you must consider if your room faces the street, a neighbour or a pathway where people walk, in order to determine the level of privacy you need during the day as well as the evening.
You don’t need to give up a beautiful view or block out the daylight to achieve a sense of security and safety. Day and night time privacy can be achieved through louvred products such as Luxaflex® PolySatin Shutters or Wood Essence Blinds. Simply adjust the slats to suit the level of light and privacy required throughout the day. There are also a large range of dual function products such as Luxaflex® Duette® Duo-Lite Shades and Luxaflex® Dual Roller Blinds available to suit your home and budget.
Luxaflex® Duette® Duo-Lite Shades (Pictured on the left above) and Dual Roller Blinds (Pictured on the right above) team fabrics of various opacities (blockout, translucent, sunscreen or sheer) together to guarantee your privacy when you need it. Different products can also be paired together to achieve the ultimate privacy and light control as shown below.
