Window Furnishings have come a long way in recent years, and Automation has been a key driver of innovation in the industry. Here are some of the latest trends in Window Furnishings, including Automation:
- Motorisation: One of the biggest trends in window furnishings is Motorisation. With Motorised window coverings, you can easily adjust your Roller Blinds, or Curtains with the touch of a button or even your smartphone. This technology offers convenience, energy efficiency, and increased safety, as you can program your window coverings to open and close on a schedule or when you’re away from home.
- Smart Home Integration: As more homes become “smart,” window furnishings are following suit. With Smart Home integration, you can control your Motorised window coverings with voice commands or through an app on your smartphone. This means you can adjust your window coverings from anywhere, even if you’re not at home.
- Natural Materials: There is a growing trend towards using natural materials in window furnishings, such as bamboo or organic cotton. These materials are not only eco-friendly but also offer a natural, organic look and feel that many homeowners are looking for.
- Layered Window Coverings: Layered window coverings, such as combining Curtains with Roller Blinds or other shades, are becoming more popular as they offer both style and functionality. This trend allows for greater control over light and privacy, while also creating a layered, textured look that adds depth and interest to a room.
- Energy Efficiency: With rising energy costs, homeowners are increasingly looking for window coverings that can help reduce their energy bills. Energy-efficient window coverings, such as cellular shades (also known as Honeycomb Blinds), can help keep your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter, reducing your reliance on heating and cooling systems.
Overall, automation and smart home integration are driving the latest trends in window furnishings, offering convenience, efficiency, and style to homeowners.
