But the choice of blinds for the kitchen can turn into real chaos if you do not know in advance how to choose the right material, type and type of blinds!
Basic tips for choosing blinds for the kitchen
At the time of entering the Russian market of this type of "curtains", the blinds were made of only one material and had the same suspended structure.Today, manufacturers of such systems can create not only blinds that are unique in color, but also use unusual systems for their fastening, along with the use of natural materials! Therefore, when choosing blinds for the kitchen, you should be guided by the following tips.
System type
The type of system is the type of the blinds themselves. They can be vertical (the most common option), horizontal and rolled (new among system types). For the home and kitchen, vertical or roller blinds are an excellent option.
Material
Modern blinds are made not only from the familiar plastic and metal, but also from bamboo, wood and fabric. The latter can be either synthetic polyester or natural cotton. Preference should be given to the type of material that is easiest to clean.
Color
Regardless of the material from which the blinds are made, they can be made in a single color or in a color key. At the request of the customer, a unique pattern or photograph can be applied to the blinds.
Location
Kitchen blinds, unlike ordinary curtains, can be attached not only to the window opening, but also to one of the sashes, to the ceiling, to the roof window, and also from the outside of the window!
Form
The usual "rectangular shape" blinds are found in many apartments and offices. But in the kitchen, where you want to emphasize comfort, and not a cold atmosphere, you should choose blinds of non-standard shapes, for example, round ones.
Length
Depending on the height of the window opening, as well as on the design solution, you can pre-select the desired length of the blinds. They can end strictly at the windowsill, or they can stretch all the way to the floor.
Layout type
The type of layout of the blinds, depending on their design (open or closed), can make it possible to transform them in the form required by the customer.
Price
The price range for blinds is quite wide. This is mainly due to the type of materials used in their production, as well as the complexity of the design itself. The more expensive the blinds, the more environmentally friendly, practical and simply more durable they are.
Choosing blinds for your kitchen is no easy task. Here you should first take into account all possible factors influencing this choice (budget, location, degree of exploitation), and then, taking into account the above tips, choose their best model that meets all the previously established requirements.
