Dark for naps and bedtime
Black-out does not let any light through and helps make the room calmer during sleep time.
Restful sleep, soft privacy and handle-free operation
In a children's room or nursery you want to be able to control light without a loose operating chain. Choose Black-out for naps and a dark night, or light-filtering when privacy and daylight matter more.

Specific to this room
The room changes as the child grows. So choose a solution that is practical now and will still look calm and suitable later.
Black-out does not let any light through and helps make the room calmer during sleep time.
With a light-filtering fabric the room stays bright, while nobody can see in through the fabric.
The controls are in the top and bottom rails. There is no loose chain hanging next to the window.
Neutral shades and profiles that match the window frame colour still suit the room when the furnishings change later.

Practical room advice
For a nursery or children's room where naps are taken during the day, Black-out is usually the best choice. In a playroom or study room, a light-filtering fabric may be more pleasant. It still gives full privacy, but keeps pleasant daylight in the room.
Light-filtering or blackout
All fabrics are opaque. Choose Black-out when sleep is the priority. Choose Single Tone or Duo Tone when you mainly want privacy and the room needs to stay light.
A calm, light-filtering choice for playrooms and older children's rooms where daylight remains important.
Colour on the inside and white on the outside. Handy when you want to give the room colour and keep the façade calm.
For nurseries, naps and bedrooms. The fabric does not let any light through and gives the strongest blackout.

Soft colours with a calm choice of profile
In a children's room or nursery, ideally the adhesive profile blends in with the window frame. The operating rail can match the fabric or a recurring furniture colour. The standard choice consists of RAL 7016, RAL 7035, RAL 9005, RAL 9001 and RAL 9003.

Black-out is the best choice when the room really needs to be able to get dark.
Position the bed, cupboard or toys so that the rail remains easy to operate.

Colours change with daylight, lamps and the colour of the walls and floor.
Practical answers

Yes. Single Tone and Duo Tone are opaque and give full privacy, but do let light through.
There is no loose operating chain. The controls are in the handle-free rail; the cords inside the system must always stay taut.
Yes. With top-down/bottom-up you only close the part where people can see in or the sun shines, and let daylight in elsewhere.
The honeycomb structure helps to slow down heat in summer and limit cold at the window in winter.
In that case we can also supply many fabrics as a cord-operated or motorised pleated blind, so the colour in the room stays the same.
