Current trends for blinds

What are the current trends when it comes to blinds? Regardless of whether you are looking for parasols, plantation shutters, wooden venetian blinds or electric blinds the current trends are simplicity and minimalism. Nowadays the emphasis is certainly on crisp, clean lines. In addition pattern is hot at the moment and you can’t go wrong with geometric patterns, trellis designs, whimsical motifs, large scale floral and bold colours.

Roman Blinds are a favourite for contemporary homes in Ireland where no one can resist their clean lines and fun colourful patterns and as they are a flat construction the fabric needed is much less than what one would need with drapes. This allows owners of roman blinds to upscale fabric choices and make a real statement. These style of blinds work very well in most rooms including dining areas, kitchens and bathrooms.

Roller shades are another popular choice due to the fact that they are sleep, functional, economical and they come in plain, patterned or textured designs.  They are in fact what you would call perfect fit blinds. They have many benefits including, they can fit into tight spaces, they can be used as an inside or outside mount and they look great layered in a more traditional style. They are also available in a range of opacities from darkening a room to almost sheer and they come in a range of colours.
