For new homeowners, or those renovating existing houses, choosing window coverings can be a big decision, as well as a significant investment.

Some window furnishings become a fixed part of the house, whether internally or externally, meaning they can add value to your home. But this also means that your decision cannot be reversed easily!

Blinds and shutters remain 2 of the most popular window coverings for Australian houses and lifestyles, allowing plenty of natural light and airflow into your home. You may end up choosing a combination of the 2 – either way, there are a number of factors you need to consider when choosing the right types of blinds and shutters for your home.

Let’s look at some of the best-known types of both blinds and shutters, to help you make the right choice for your home, family and lifestyle.
