Combining features of both roller and Venetian blinds, for a home that’s light and airy in the day, but dark and cosy at night, Day and Night blinds are the perfect option. These window treatments are not only a stylish addition to your home but they’re practical and functional pieces that offer the best of both worlds when it comes to lighting and privacy – comfort and control. And if that wasn’t enough, they’re available in a selection of colour combinations, so you can enjoy sophisticated design alongside quality functionality all year round. Whatever the time of the day, you can let the sun shine through your home when it suits, or protect your privacy. But above all, you can always enjoy complete control over the light coming into your home. Let Day and Night blinds revolutionise the way you shade your humble abode, all whilst boasting complete aesthetic appeal.
Day and Night Blinds, otherwise known as combination blinds, vision blinds, twist blinds or duo blinds, are made of alternating layers of blackout fabric and voile (sheer fabric). These slats can be adjusted to control the amount of light filtering into a room.
All in all, these types of blinds offer all the simplicity of a standard roller blind, alongside all the flexibility of a Venetian blind when it comes to privacy and light control. And let’s not forget – Day and Night blinds are incredibly easy on the eye too – what more could you want?
The voile layers on your Day and Night blinds allow light to stream through whilst maintaining your privacy from prying eyes. On the other hand, the blackout strips block out light. Like roller blinds, Day and Night blinds roll up on a casing at the top and roll down as a single unit rather than as individual slats. The layers glide between each other creating an open or closed effect. You can choose to have an alternating blackout slat/sheer slat layout for a moderated level of light. Or line up all the sheer slats to flood the room with light without compromising privacy. And if you want to set the mood for a movie or get a dreamy night’s sleep, line up all the blackout slats. The world is your oyster!
Want privacy without sacrificing sunlight? The voile strips on the Day and Night blinds are ideal for this, as they’re sheer enough to let the light in, but thick enough to obscure the view into your home from any nosy neighbours or prying passers-by.
These types of blinds give you ultimate control over exactly how much light enters your home. For unfiltered daylight, roll them all the way up, or to soften the sun’s rays, use the voile slats. If you want to dim the light coming in, combine the sheer and opaque slats. And when it’s time to hit the hay, block out the light with blackout strips. Every scenario covered in one set of blinds!
These blinds help to control not only light, but temperature too. Use the blinds to insulate your home in winter but keep it cool in summer. And you could potentially save a few pennies on your utility bills too!
The zebra-like striped design of these blinds adds a funky flair to your home, with the alternating fabrics creating dimension and texture. So, you can be rest assured that these highly efficient blinds provide excellent function without sacrificing aesthetics.
Bunch the blackout slats together for a completely dark room, so you can get forty winks without any interruption from outside light! When you wake up in the morning, you can then use the sheer slats to brighten up the room as you get ready for the day ahead.
Enjoy a light and airy living room without worrying about lack of privacy thanks to the voile slats in Day and Night blinds. Bask in the sunlight through the day, then use the blackout slats to create a cosy atmosphere in the evening – perfect for movie nights
In a post-covid world, so many of us are working from home and having to contend with issues like screen glare and visibility. With Day and Night blinds, you can filter the light to ensure that you can see your screen clearly, whilst still allowing enough daylight in to potentially save money on your electricity bill.
