Do you have your heart set on some stylish window shutters for your home interior? If, so we certainly believe you are making the right decision.
There are a couple of important things to consider before investing in shutters. This includes the type of shutter you want, which windows you want them to cover, and how you want them to look with the finishing colour touches.
Often our shutter experts are asked about how to ensure plantation shutters fit not just the windows, but also the interior design choices of our customers.
That’s why we’ve created this (hopefully) helpful article to point you in the right direction. In this article, we break down how you can ensure that your new shutters will suit your style.
Consider which colour suits your home interior
One of the most important ways to ensure your shutters suit your style is to find the right colour or finish. Plantation shutters do have a timeless elegance to them, especially if you opt for the traditional cream or white colours to finish them.
A white or cream shutter will match perfectly with any interior design colours or themes you have. This is why it remains the most popular choice when it comes to shutter colours.
However, if you want to be a bit bolder you could take advantage of our custom colour match service. This is where you can choose pretty much any colour and we will match it and finish your shutters with it.
Perhaps you have a warm colour scheme throughout your home and want to go for a yellow or red shutter to match this. Or maybe you want a cooler colour tone like blue or even black. You can have pretty much any colour you want – so the choice is yours.
Think about how you want them to function
All shutters have a range of benefits from light control and privacy management to insulation. However, the style you choose will depend on a couple of individual factors.
If you are looking for shutters to complement your bedroom interior then full height or solid shutters are a good option. These will help to block out light and noise from outside whilst also adding extra style to your room.
For the bathroom, you would want shutters with waterproof properties. We advocate PVC window shutters so that they are not spoiled by any water or moisture.
In the living room, shutters can help to add to the relaxing atmosphere you will want to create. You could opt for café style shutters if you want to have a bit of privacy but don’t want to compromise on lighting.
When it comes to choosing your shutter style, it all depends on how you want them to function within your room. So, keep that in mind and you will not go wrong.
