Small window blind for master bedroom - roman or roller

6年前

Hi,
We have a very small master bedroom to work with. The bed we have at the moment is very chunky and we are replacing this with a low contemporary bed and low headboard.
We haven't picked the bed yet but I need to install a blind prior and I am stuck between a roman blind or a roller blind.
Any comments would Be appreciated.
Thanks

The house has quite a quirky layout. The bed window is at the side of the house looking out over the garden and there is another window facing the front.

Don't worry too much about houzz etiquette! Just remember that everyone has an opinion but you have to live with the end result, so go with your gut.

Hi, I have the same set up in the bedroom and opted for a simple blackout roller blind, then framed the bed with full length linen curtains on a pole that can stay open so I don't have to faff about closing them behind the bed. I think it looks really effective.

Haha, I was hoping you wouldn't ask! Just had to quickly tidy the room before taking a picture! Here it is. In your room I would get a pole long enough to keep the curtains away from the bed.

Hi,

ha sorry, I am a newbie at house renovations and still soaking it all in. Thanks for the photo and yes I agree it does look effective. Is the master bedroom at the front of your house of back ?

Thanks

Hiya,

As others have suggested, a Roller blind with a blackout fabric would be great. You mention you struggle with space in your bedroom, and Roller blinds are really great at rolling up neatly, letting in as much light as possible during the day.

And of course, you'll be able to pick a colour or pattern that enhances your design scheme, so your blind will become part of the overall look.

A Roman blind is still an option available to you, but be aware if you fit it within the recess it will take up more room than a Roller blind when at the top of the window.

Good luck with your search,

Hello, we would also suggest a simple blackout roller blind for your bedroom. When they are open, they let more light in than roman blinds. Our range of blackout roller blinds come in modern neutral colours. Here are a few examples of blackout rollers we've installed to small bedrooms. Good luck!

As the room is relatively compact, the bed and the window are the only opportunity to add a little interest in the room. Roller blinds are practical, but on their own most are a little flat and unimaginative in this instance. The suggestion above with the roller blind and dress curtains is a great option as it softens the room and creates a statement. If you want something a bit sleeker then I'm a fan of the roman blind. You could fit a wider roman blind external to the recess and slightly higher so not as to obscure as much light when it's up. A pelmet would finish off the look too.
