Types of curtains and blinds

There are several types of curtains and blinds in New Zealand, some of which include the following:

Single panel curtains

Panel pair curtains

These curtains are made up of two separate panels of fabric sewn together. They have a unique look that is referred to as reverse pleating.

Venetian blinds

These are made from lightweight yet durable material and come in various colours. They are typically used in areas where light needs to pass through.

Roller blinds

How to choose curtains and blinds that are right for you

Choosing curtains and blinds in New Zealand is a big decision. You want to make sure that you're buying something that will work with your décor but also be functional, durable and easy to maintain. If you plan on using your curtain or blinds for many years, choosing a durable fabric is important. Cotton is one of the best options because it can take repeated washings without losing shape or colour. Polyester is another top choice if you're looking for something affordable. Aesthetics is also a key part of the decision. Curtains and blinds come in a wide range of colours, patterns and designs which presents a great opportunity to find something that is unique and personal to you. Interior design curtains are available in a range of colours, patterns and fabrics for rooms that need privacy, light control or a defined window treatment.

Is it better to have light or dark curtains?

It is not necessarily better to have light or dark curtains in a particular living space with the answer coming down to your needs and preferences. Dark curtains can be bold and dynamic, giving a space greater visual depth. Light curtains can help let in a lot of natural light, making the room feel more open and airy.

What fabrics are curtains made of?

Curtains are made of a wide range of fabrics, including cotton and linen, but also more exotic materials like silk. Curtains can be made from any fabric that is durable and easy to clean. The most common curtains in New Zealand have a woven construction with a higher thread count than other fabrics.

Should blinds be lighter or darker than walls?

It's your choice. It can be hard to choose between light and dark, but the truth is, it doesn't matter. If you want to make your space feel bigger or brighter, go for lighter blinds. If you want to make them feel smaller and more intimate, go for darker ones.

Does closing blinds keep heat in?

No, it keeps the heat out. When you close your blinds, the air that comes in will cool down and make it more comfortable. However, when you open the blinds again, all the cool air will flow out, and the heat from outside will seep in.
