First, choose the type of blind you prefer

It’s important to first choose the blind before the drape as it’s the less flexible window treatment out of the two in terms of design. Roller blinds are an excellent choice, for example, as they provide a subtle, understated design with one simple block of colour. They are thin, delicate and available in blackout and room-darkening fabrics for as much light control as possible.

Don’t go overboard on prints and find a balance

If your home is neutral and contemporary, you may be tempted to add some print to your window treatments for a pop of design and colour. When pairing drapes with Vancouver luxury blinds, careful to not go overboard as too much print can feel overpowering.

Instead, you can pick the blinds to be in one single colour, and the drape fabric to be patterned. To tie the look together, pick a fabric that will feature the colour of the blind.

Play with height to make your space look larger

One advantage of pairing blinds with drapes is the ability to create an illusion of taller ceilings and bigger windows. You can talk to our experts about installing the blinds and headrail above the window frame and installing the drape rod at the same height. This effortlessly creates the illusion of a much bigger space.

Vary the look from room to room

Window treatments don’t have to look the same in every single room. You can most certainly play with fabrics, colours and patterns as you transition from room to room.

For example, in the bedroom, you can go for sheer shades and pair them with room-darkening or blackout drapes. This gives you maximum control over light and temperature during all parts of the day. In the living room, you can opt for a roller or Venetian shade and pair it with room-darkening drapes for minimum glare during family movie night.
