How to choose perfect blinds for your kitchen?
The choice of roller blinds for kitchen windows should take into account not only aesthetic and decorative values but also the high functionality of the product.
A kitchen is a place that serves the whole family. Joint meetings, preparing meals or cleaning this space requires that the devices and objects located in it should be functional and easy to clean. Properly fitted blinds for kitchen windows will ensure comfort in the everyday use of this space. Pay particular attention to the distance between the window and the workspace- cooker, sink or cooker hood. Heat source, moisture or steam can cause additional stains or discolouration.
Choose a product that best meets the needs of your home. Below we present propositions that indicate the strengths and weaknesses of each solution.
Wooden blinds
The cover of the kitchen window may differ from the other roller blinds in the dining room or in the living room, at the same time being an interesting element of interior design. The definite favourite of this season is the wooden blind.
Provides privacy, is easy to use and clean. There are two types of blinds: Bamboo wood and Basswood. The first one has a delicate, interesting structure, but its Surface may accumulate more impurities than in the case of smooth Basswood lamellas. Wooden blinds should be cleaned regularly with a slightly damp cloth without the use of detergents. Dusting with a bristle brush can help. Keep in mind that thin wood slats do not like a lot of water. The high quality of the materials used guarantees long-lasting, comfortable use of the product.
Wooden blinds are available in a wide range of colours, so you can match the colour of the blinds to a wooden tabletop, or choose bright blinds to match the colour of your furniture or walls. The product made of wood evokes positive associations with nature and the room gains a unique atmosphere.
Window pleats
Window pleats are an interesting alternative to curtains, they provide privacy and regulate the amount of light entering the kitchen. You can place the pleat anywhere on the window. If you slide the entire pleat to the bottom of the window, you can enjoy the view outside the window and at the same time avoid the gaze of passers-by or neighbours at the workspace or the table. The pleats can be washed by hand with care. Just soak them in water. Drying should be carried out in a folded position in a warm room. After rinsing, you reinstall the pleat, preferably undeveloped, on the window and let it dry in this position. This method of drying will ensure well-formed folds of the pleats.
Fabric roller blinds and Day & Night roller blinds
Fabric roller blinds are made of polyester fabric, and their high quality is additionally confirmed by the Standard 100 Oeko-Tex certificate. Regular and careful cleaning with a damp cloth will keep them looking good for longer. Do not rub the fabric in the place of dirt or use aggressive cleaning detergents to prevent discolouration. Fabric roller blinds and Day / Night roller blinds are available in many colours and patterns. They allow you to completely darken the room or only partially reduce the amount of light. There are several types of mounting. The kitchen requires efficient mechanical or gravity ventilation. If the kitchen is ventilated frequently, a blind mounted on the window frame is a good choice. In the case of mechanical ventilation, there is more freedom in choosing the available types of installation - on a window frame, free-hanging in a window recess or mounted on a wall.
Roman blinds
The most frequently chosen type of roller blinds by people who value attractive accessories in interior design. The colour of the fabric can be matched to the colour of napkins, tablecloths or furniture. The right type of fabric will allow you to darken or only slightly cover the window.
They successfully replace traditional curtains and curtains. Made of certified polyester fabric. Like any different material, they can absorb unpleasant odours. Regular care with a soft cloth will keep them in good condition. They are not machine washable so you can hand wash them after disassembly.
There are two types of installation: invasive montage on the wall and non-invasive on the window sash. The decorative qualities of Roman blinds make them more and more popular and trendy.
The choice of kitchen blinds is wide, especially to the increasingly better properties of polyester fabrics and easy cleaning. The decision should take into account the need for functionality of the chosen solution in your kitchen and the decorative roles that are equally important for the comfort of the family.
