Composite Shutters & BlindScreen – Living Room & Dining Room
A mixed installation covering a flat window and bay window in the living room with full height composite shutters, plus a vertical blind on a smaller window, and a BlindScreen dual system with a Scene Set fabric and integrated bug screen fitted to the sliding patio doors in the dining room.
The living room: two mismatched windows, one consistent look
Living rooms with a flat window and a separate bay window often end up looking disjointed, one window dressed differently to the other because standard blinds or curtains can’t handle the angles of a bay. Full height composite shutters in Pure White with 63mm louvres solved that here, fitted to both the flat window and the four-panel bay so the whole wall reads as one considered design rather than two separate windows fighting each other. Split tilt on both gives independent control over the top and bottom louvres, so the room gets full privacy from the street at the bottom while still pulling in natural light from above. A vertical blind was also fitted to a smaller window in the room, a straightforward, practical solution for a space that didn’t need the same shutter treatment.
The dining room: light, bugs, and privacy, solved at once
Sliding patio doors leading onto a garden bring a common set of problems: no privacy at night, no way to keep the doors open in summer without inviting flies and wasps in, and standard blinds that either block everything or nothing. The BlindScreen dual system fitted here, in a Beige Scene Set fabric with a white bug screen, solves all three. The Scene Set fabric gives around 50% blackout, cutting glare and adding privacy without shutting the room off completely, while the second track is a fine insect mesh that lets the doors stay open on warm evenings without letting bugs in. It’s a genuinely different approach to patio doors than a standard blind or curtain, giving control over light, privacy, and pests independently rather than forcing a choice between them.
