Venetian blinds are slatted blinds made of aluminium or wood which move up and down using a mechanism. Further, the slats can be rotated around their axis. Although Venetian blinds are often negligently classified as office furnishings, those window coverings with a straightforward look might not be appear so cold and rigid. Moving the slats horizontally allows adjusting the amount of light in the room. In addition, the slats combined with light create cosy-looking graphic patterns on the walls and other surfaces which provide a nice effect in modern interiors.
In classical interiors, we recommend using wooden Venetian blinds in combination with textile curtains. Venetian blinds can be installed in moist rooms and on unconventionally shaped windows – and for certain window types – between the inner and outer glazing.
