Choosing the Right Blinds for Small vs. Large Windows:

Introduction: 

Blind shopping can be very tricky. However, if you’re sure about some factors before you start looking for your perfect fit, then the entire process can become much easier and smoother for you. One of the most important factors when deciding the correct type of blind for your window is the size of the window. 

Whether you have a small-sized window or a larger one, some blinds might compliment the smaller-sized window and make your room look more enhanced and spacious and fit right in with the room aesthetic at the same time, the wrong type of selection or choosing a blind that is built for large windows might destroy the feel of your room and suck out all the taste and class out of it. 

In this article, we are going to discuss what fundamental problems one might face if they have small windows or large windows. And which blinds are best to solve these problems and how. 

Small Windows – Best Blind Choices:

Modern apartment-style living often doesn’t allow for large windows, unlike those found in classic old homes. Now, the house has standard or small-sized windows. While some windows of the house can accommodate a standard-size blind, most of them require a custom-fitted blind. 

Moreover, people looking for blinds for small windows often have a significant concern that the natural light entering their house is already minimal. They want more of it or most of it to come. Still, at the same time, they want to ensure that they can easily control the light depending on the occasion and maintain their privacy, as most houses are usually street-facing and can have a significant privacy issue. 

For this reason, we have listed down the best possible blinds, in our opinion, that can tackle all these issues. 

Best Options:

Roller blinds:

Roller Blinds are ideal for small homes, as they are blinds that are attached to chains or strings and can be easily rolled up, allowing full sunlight to come inside while freeing up space for as long as you like. When it’s nighttime or whenever you want extra privacy, you can roll them down again.

Vertical blinds:

Vertical Blinds are the perfect choice for small windows, as they give an elongated look and have gaps that allow natural light to pass through at all times without compromising privacy. This is a wise choice for individuals seeking blinds that offer both privacy and suitability for small windows.

Day & Night blinds:

These blinds are designed to handle situations where lighting is a primary concern. They are designed to allow light into the room during the day and then easily switch to block light, thereby protecting your privacy. They are great for small windows in your bedrooms where both lighting and privacy are essential. 

Large Windows – Best Blind Choices:

People who have classical architecture or have larger homes. Or, modern luxury apartments with floor-to-ceiling glass windows tend to have larger windows throughout their homes and have to make choices based on very different factors than those with smaller windows. 

All these types of customers not only have to consider the aesthetics of their rooms but also ensure that the color blends with their furniture and color scheme, helping to manage the intended vibe of the room. 

Major concerns for people with large bay windows include excessive sunlight, which can lead to overheating in the summer and pose significant problems with privacy and glare. Therefore, we have compiled a list of blinds that are effective for larger windows, providing style and class.

Best Options:

Venetian blinds:

Venetian blinds feature horizontal slats that allow for more flexible light control while also providing excellent privacy. The light doesn’t get blocked entirely, which is the entire purpose of creating a larger window. You can also ensure that not everything is visible to outsiders after installing Venetian blinds. They are available in different 

Motorized blinds:

For more luxury homes that have a complete high-level look in their rooms. We believe that motorized blinds are ideal for blending seamlessly with the house’s ambiance, addressing both privacy and lighting concerns, and thereby maintaining the room’s luxury and elegance. 

Roman blinds:

Roman blinds are a type of blind made with special fabric featuring beautiful colors and textures, often with elegant designs. They are made especially for larger windows and more formal settings. They are perfect for a classic home, where you can customize them to suit your taste and style and then let the blind complement the look of your room in the most exquisite way possible.

However, there are a few key considerations to keep in mind when installing a perfect blind. 

Firstly, it’s essential to have the correct size, taking into account the fall of the blind. Ensure you are aware of the material mounts available with your preferred blind and whether you like them to be inside or outside. Make sure your motorized blinds are perfectly balanced. Venetian blinds have their slats balanced for maximum light control, and your roller has proper springs. Also, ensure that whoever comes to install your blind does a safe and secure job, making sure the blind does not fall off easily.

Conclusion:

Everyone needs to understand the importance of window size when selecting a blind. One wrong decision that does not consider the size of your window can potentially ruin the entire outlook of your room and make your room look out of touch. 

Therefore, through this guide, regardless of what sized your windows are, you can always at least get your basics right when it comes to selecting your blinds.
