Our introverted and cocooned life styles during lock down have led many of us to review our homes and whether they are proving to be the refuge of calm that many crave or the hub of inspiration that keeps some of us going.
It appears that our homes “have been weighed, have been measured and have been found wanting”.The easiest and least disruptive way to make an impact is to change the window furnishings.
Perhaps you feel like it is all getting a bit fussy and cluttered?
Consider sending the curtains and drapes off to the local charity and replacing them with some clean and calm Weathermaster roller blinds. You will be amazed at how much more spacious your home will feel. The sunscreen and light filtering fabrics will become a favourite this summer.

Maybe the vertical blinds that were in the house when you brought it have finally annoyed you for the last time with their broken chains and clacking end weights?
Why not replace them with a thoroughly modern linen look sheer that gives you privacy and sun-screening as well as romance and elegance without the fuss.

Possibly, working from home has meant you need to conjure up your own inspiration and the neutral blinds against the neutral walls of the ‘Scandi’ era is no longer giving you a good vibe?
The Pantone colour institute has the answer; “The Spring/Summer 2021 New York Color Palette: Shades illustrative of nature coupled with new core classics come together to create a palette inspiring ingenuity and inventiveness”.
In Layman’s terms; The colours for the coming season are bright and joyful.

The trend for interiors is following the same format. Beautiful colours of nature from Sunsets to Surf and contemporary botanicals.
If all of that feels just like hard work then at the very least you can give your window furnishings a treat by giving them a clean.
