Best Window Blinds & Shades To Use In Your Kitchen

To some, it’s the beating heart of the home. To others, it’s the engine room. Many still see it is a functional space, but the kitchen’s role at the center of the well-being of one’s family is obvious. It is unfortunate that, in spite of its central role in keeping a home ticking, the decor and styling of a kitchen usually gets the short end of the stick.

Window Treatments For Your Kitchen

Feeling good at home plays a big role in how we go about our daily lives. And it’s even more rewarding when meals are prepared in an environment that transforms the harshness of direct sunlight to a gentle and warm glow. While functionality and ease of maintenance are paramount for window coverings in the kitchen, there are a range of sheers and shades that can make preparing meals as enjoyable as its eating.

Control Light, Enhance Flavours

When it comes to the diffusion of light, reducing extraneous noise, and enhancing privacy, there are few window coverings that offer the versatility of Silhouette® Window Shadings, Pirouette® Window Shadings and Luminette® Privacy Sheers.

The kitchen is a sacred space, and Silhouette® Window Shadings afford the functionality of light control and privacy at the same time. These horizontal window blinds consist of soft, adjustable S-shaped vanes that appear to float between two sheer fabrics. Since these have no cords or tapes, the sheer facings let light filter through, while masking the outside world's view into your space.

Kitchens can get warm at the best of times, and Silhouette shades filter out nearly 90% of the sun’s harmful rays, even with the vanes open. With the vanes closed, you can enjoy almost total protection from UV rays.

If your design sensibilities veer towards being clean, modern, and minimalist, Pirouette® Window Shadings are the ultimate in flexibility. These window blinds feature softly contoured, front-facing fabric vanes attached to a single sheer backing that, when open, provides a clear view of the outside. During opening and closing, the vanes move in tandem for a fluid, graceful effect.

Pirouette® Window Shadings are custom-built to ensure windows of varying heights have consistent vane alignment from window-to-window, and can be raised completely into the headrail for a totally unobstructed view. So your kitchen can look as stylish as any other room in your home.

Venetian Blinds, on the other hand, gives an enduring charm with its design, durability, and versatility with precise control of light intensity & direction. These blinds are suitable for all types of windows, may it be tilt-and-turn, glass doors, sloped windows or glass partition walls.

All these windows covering systems have a thoughtfully curated suite of fabrics, textures, colors, hardware, and operating systems that will match the expectations of leading designers and discerning consumers alike who seek the best in design.
