Inspiration

Posted 06/08/2018

Larger windows are a fantastic feature to have in your home. They open up a space, allow natural light to flow into a room and give you beautiful vistas of the outdoors. Although they’re a great addition to a home, it can sometimes be tricky to find the perfect window dressing to suit them.

Whether you want to embrace the natural light or you’re looking to improve privacy, the right blinds for large windows can give you complete control and help you create the perfect final look in your home.

To help you find the best ideas for dressing large windows in your home, here’s our pick of the best types of blinds for large windows.

 

Vertical Blinds

 

 

For tall or wide windows, a vertical blind will do just the trick. It fits wonderfully over a patio door or a floor-to-ceiling window, and give you the power to block out the light or pull it back completely. Assembled on easy-to-install runners, your blind will be able to cover a large space easily.

Made to measure blinds enable you to create the right height and width to suit a large window. The vertical slats of this design will look sleek and modern, providing complete control over privacy and the light flowing in to your home. Simply adjust them with the rope pully and you can block out the rays – or let them come streaming in. There are also blackout options available to provide full privacy and relief from the sunshine if you need it.

 

 

Venetian Blinds

 

 

If your window is slightly wider, a venetian blind could be perfect. You can separate these into different sizes and sit them next to each other to fully cover the space. These also come with adjustable slats, so you can let in just as much light as you need.

They also come in a range of fabrics, colours and styles, so you can find the perfect option to suit your home. If you’re going for a modern look, opt for an aluminium style and achieve a slick, contemporary finish. Or if you prefer something with a more traditional edge, a wooden or faux wood option could work well.

 

 

Plantation Shutters

 

 

 

If you have large windows in a more traditional house, consider plantation shutters. These offer light control while delivering a timeless, classic look. Plantation shutters are made for larger sash windows and cover the whole area within the recess, making for a beautiful feature in any home.
