WHO KNEW WINDOW

COVERINGS COULD BE

SO EXCITING?

W indow coverings

are an essential
part of
domestic life.
They can block out the early
morning sun, provide much-
needed privacy and reduce
energy loss from the home.

There is a long history attached
to curtains and window coverings.
They originated as a temperature‐
control technique, with the earliest
curtains made from animal hides
and hung in doorways on hooks. As
textile innovations have progressed,
the category of window treatments
has expanded to include blinds, shades,
shutters and other designs to control light
and temperature in a house.

These days, there is a variety of window
coverings on offer. Choosing something too
dated can affect the appearance and ambience
of your home.

Gone are the days when window coverings
were just a practical necessity; now they are a
stylish statement piece that combine modern
technology with classic designs in a home.

Sustainability remains a key focus in 2025.
Expect window treatments made from eco-
friendly materials like bamboo, organic cotton
and recycled fabrics. These materials reduce
environmental impact and add a natural,
earthy feel to your home.

Curtain trends
This year’s curtain trends are poised
to embrace both innovation and
nostalgia. Expect to see a resurgence
of vintage-inspired patterns combined
with modern, eco-friendly materials.
Neutral tones will dominate, with
earthy colours and pastel shades
