Considering windows form a central part of your home and office design and can frame your view outside or enhance your building’s interior, it’s important to choose window treatments or coverings that do your windows justice.

So, to ensure you find the hippest and hottest blinds or shutters for your design, we’ve researched 2019 window treatment trends and picked 3 of the top crazes of the year. Take a look at what we’ve discovered!

1. Motorisation

2019 window treatment trends are big on motorisation or automation. And as an increasing number of household utilities are being automated – like lighting and appliances - it makes sense that window treatments are being automated too (who doesn’t want to draw their blinds or shutters at the touch of a button?).

2. Fabric Blinds 

Want the soft luxurious look of curtains but also like the ease-of-use and practicality of blinds? Well then, fabric blinds blend both of these together perfectly and they are a firm favourite in the world of interior design at the current moment.

Composite Window Covering Materials

Advancements in window treatment technology have allowed new and improved blind and shutter materials to be made, namely, composites which combine two different materials to form a better, stronger material.

The reason composite window covering materials are so popular is because they feature properties such as heat and water resistance, which makes them perfect for use in areas such as the kitchen and bathroom.

Take a look at our Tecwood Venetian Blinds for a better idea of what composites have to offer.

To sum it up, 2019 window treatment trends are all about combining fashion and functionality. Whether it’s smart materials, luxurious looking blinds or motorisation, you certainly can’t go wrong with any one of these great trends!
