Which Is Better: Blinds Or Curtains?

When shopping for window coverings, there is an age-old question of which is better: blinds or curtains. Blinds have a more elegant appearance, while curtains have a more carefree appearance. Insulation is an important factor when choosing window coverings, as it can help keep your AC or heater from running unnecessarily. Layered blinds, like honeycomb and the Ninet, are great for insulation, filling the entire window frame when closed. The most important details are that blinds are typically the winner when it comes to light control, and that combinations of blinds and curtains can be the best solution.

Sheer vertical blinds offer multiple levels of exposure, with the first layer offering sun screening and privacy, and the last layer offering total blackout. This combination of light control and beauty and elegance is the best of both worlds.
