Curtains + Blinds.

A room without curtains or blinds is incomplete. A sleek and refined blind can create an unfussy style that contributes perfectly to minimalist and modern interiors. Traditional approaches to décor include flourishes of colour, texture and pattern which can be achieved through luxurious curtains. Both are stunning additions for framing, dressing and accentuating your window spaces, but which is best for your home?
do you need curtains with blinds?

Although you do not need to have both a blind and pair of curtains on your windows, you may choose to pair the two together. This flexible décor will ensure adequate blocking of light as well as privacy control.

Consider the size of the window and the area around it. If you’re limited to space, we recommend choosing either a pair of curtains or a blind, not both. However, if you have a larger window and a generous amount of space, you may choose to add both dressings to your window. This will create a luxurious and layered effect making your window space appear grander.
