Garden rooms have gained popularity as versatile spaces that can be used as home offices, gyms, or guest rooms. These stylish and functional spaces often require a special consideration when it comes to choosing the right window treatments. 

Blinds for garden rooms not only enhance the aesthetics of these outdoor havens but also play a crucial role in creating a comfortable environment by controlling light, visibility and privacy.

Understanding the various types of blinds available for garden rooms is essential to select the perfect window treatment that complements the interior design and caters to specific needs. From roller blinds, offering a minimalist and sleek design, to Pinoleum blinds, well-suited for traditional style orangeries, there are several options to choose from.

Types of Garden Room Blinds

These blinds are widely used in garden rooms due to their simplicity and versatility. Roller blinds are available in a wide range of colours, patterns, and styles to suit any décor. They provide good control over natural light and can be combined with a blackout lining to eliminate glare.

For a more stylish and insulating option, pleated blinds can be a great choice for garden rooms. The pleated design adds a touch of sophistication to the overall aesthetics of the space while still providing excellent light control. Opting for thermal pleated fabrics also helps to improve insulation, making your garden room comfortable all year round.

Ideal for larger windows and sliding doors, vertical blinds provide a practical solution for light control and privacy in your garden room. They can be easily adjusted and tilted to effectively control the amount of light entering the space. Vertical blinds are available in various materials and colours to complement your décor.

Functional Considerations for Garden Room Blinds

When selecting blinds for garden rooms, it’s essential to consider various functional aspects, such as light control, privacy, energy efficiency, and ease of maintenance. 

Light Control and Privacy

One of the primary functions of garden room blinds is to provide effective light control and privacy. 

Different blinds offer varying degrees of light filtering, glare reduction, and privacy. 

For instance, roller blinds can have different levels of opacity, while venetian blinds, with their adjustable slats, offer a more flexible solution for controlling sunlight in your garden room. You should consider your needs for natural light and privacy to determine the most suitable option for your particular garden room.

Another essential aspect to consider is the role that blinds play in insulation and energy efficiency. Although many modern garden rooms are well insulated, our range of thermal blinds can significantly help reduce heat loss in winter and keep the room cooler during summer. 

Many of our blinds are available with a special insulating material that helps maintain comfortable room temperatures and might contribute to reduced energy consumption. 

Moreover, certain blinds can have a solar-reflective lining, which prevents the sun’s rays from overheating interiors, further improving thermal performance whilst also protecting your garden room furniture.

Ease of Maintenance

Lastly, the choice of garden room blinds should consider the ease of maintenance. Your blinds should be durable and able to withstand daily use and exposure to dust and dirt. 

Some blinds, like Perfect Fit blinds, are easy to clean with a simple, gentle wipe down with a cloth or soft vacuum attachment. Whereas blinds such as venetians are just as easy to keep clean with their wipeable slats.

It is crucial to opt for blinds that are low maintenance, easy to clean, and child safe. This way, you can ensure the long-term functionality and aesthetic appeal of your garden room blinds without spending excessive time and effort on maintaining them.

Designing for Different Garden Room Uses

Blinds for Garden Offices

Garden offices have become increasingly popular as working from home has become the norm for many professionals. 

Choosing the right blinds for your garden office is crucial for maintaining privacy, controlling natural light, and minimising glare on screens. 

Suitable options to use are, Perfect Fit, Intu or pleated blinds which can be easily attached to window frames and provide a sleek look without overwhelming the room’s aesthetics.

Another popular choice for garden offices is roller blinds as these offer a clean, minimalist appearance and are easy to operate. Including a solar reflective lining can help to reduce heat gain and improve energy efficiency.

Gym and Yoga Studios

For garden rooms dedicated to gym and yoga studios, it is essential to consider ventilation and temperature control alongside privacy and light control. 

Blinds that fit into window frames such as perfect fit, Intu and pleated blinds are excellent for providing privacy and light control. Yet, they are also great for ventilation. As where the blinds are fitted into the window frame, you can open doors for ventilation without the blinds flapping around and getting damaged.

Additionally, blinds made from breathable materials, such as Pinoleum blinds, can be an excellent option for these spaces. The wood weave design can reduce glare while allowing natural light to enter, setting a calming atmosphere for workouts or meditation sessions. Consider adding solar reflective lining to these blinds to further keep the room cool during intense workouts or sunny days.

Entertainment and Bar Areas

Garden rooms designed for entertainment and bar areas require a balance between privacy, comfort, and style. 

Selecting the appropriate blinds can greatly influence the room’s ambiance and functionality. Vertical and Venetian blinds can be a versatile solution, providing privacy, while still allowing natural light to enter the space.

Or for the ultimate in sleek, sophistication, then pleated, bifold door or motorised blinds are the perfect addition for garden room bars or cinema rooms.

All these blinds can be made from various materials and blackout properties, allowing you to personalise the design to match your preferred style and colour schemes.

We also specialise in awnings. Awnings can provide an additional layer of protection and comfort to your garden room, as they can be extended over the exterior and prevent direct sunlight from entering.

Awnings also offer a flexible shading solution, as they can be retracted when not needed, ensuring your garden room remains a bright and inviting space. See our dedicated awnings site for more information.
