Privacy where you need it
Close only the section at eye level and let daylight in at the top. That way the living room stays light and open.
Privacy, daylight and atmosphere without heavy window coverings
In the living room you want plenty of light and a view during the day, but privacy and calm in the evening too. Stick & Fit sits neatly on the window, moves with a suitable window and is operated with handleless operating rails.

Specific to this room
Look especially at the time of day and the position of the window. That way you choose a version that looks good and works well.
Close only the section at eye level and let daylight in at the top. That way the living room stays light and open.
Use the same fabric and a profile colour that matches the window frame. That turns a wide wall of windows into one calm whole.
Slide the fabric to where the sun comes in, for example near the sofa, dining table or television.
Because the pleated blind sits on the window, the windowsill, plants and furniture stay clear.

Practical room advice
With top-down/bottom-up you easily switch between view, privacy and sun protection. During the day the top section can stay open; in the evening you close the pleated blind further for a calm, homely atmosphere.
Light-filtering or blackout
All fabrics are opaque: you cannot see through them. The difference lies mainly in the amount of light and the atmosphere the fabric creates. The honeycomb structure also provides an extra insulating layer of air.
The same colour on the inside and outside. A lovely choice when the chosen shade may show on both sides of the window.
A colour on the room side and white on the outside. Ideal for a calm exterior appearance and plenty of freedom in the interior.
The fabric lets no light through and is suitable for a TV corner or multifunctional living room where darkening is important.

Let profile colours blend in calmly
In the living room, an adhesive profile close to the window frame colour usually looks calmest. Choose the handleless operating rail to match the fabric or a recurring interior colour. The five standard colours are RAL 7016, RAL 7035, RAL 9005, RAL 9001 and RAL 9003.

A few practical choices make daily use much more pleasant. Think mainly about overlooking, accessibility and the way the windows open.
Check from the street, garden and neighbours where people can see in. That is where you will place the fabric most often.
Make sure the sofa, plants or decorations do not block the handleless operating rail.
Match the adhesive profile to the window frame and the operating rail to the fabric and interior.
Even with windows side by side, each window gets its own pleated blind and operation.
Real applications from the image library
From light fabrics on white window frames to dark pleated blinds on black profiles: with fabric, profile colour and position you give every living room its own character.

Yes. The honeycomb structure traps a layer of still air and therefore helps insulate against cold in winter and heat in summer.
RAL 9003 white or RAL 9001 cream usually blends in calmly. For more contrast you can choose anthracite or black.
