Luxaflex® Window Fashions and Better Built Homes on how to design the perfect nursery
From features and pattern choices to lighting control and block out blinds, choosing the right window furnishings for a nursery can make all the difference to your family’s wellbeing. Why? Because young children are particularly sensitive to their surrounding environments. That’s why we’ve teamed up with the design experts at Better Built Homes to bring you the top six tips for creating the perfect nursery, featured on the Better Built Homes Blog. Here are just a few of our recommendations:
Child safety must always be the top consideration when selecting window fashions for your nursery. Young children are naturally curious and aren’t always aware of potential risks around the home – so it’s vital you choose a product that has placed child safety as a priority and meets the latest ACCC Child Safety Regulations. From cordless alternatives to motorised operating systems, there is a range of innovative designs that can reduce the risk of accidents.
Whether you want to darken the nursery or utilise natural light to brighten the room, lighting control is key when helping your child get the right amount of sleep at the right time. Different opacities in a window covering can filter or deflect sunlight to suit your unique needs. For example, Roller Blinds used in conjunction with a headbox and side channels is a great solution for a nursery needing maximum light control.
An eye-catching pattern can turn your blind act into the modern, flexible version of a ‘feature wall’, and provides the perfect backdrop for any nursery, bedroom or playroom. Better Built Homes recommends our very own Luxaflex® printed fabrics, a collection of fun prints that can be both subtle and bold. Four gorgeous designs have just been launched into the Luxaflex Window Fashions range to delight cheeky monkeys and big kids alike.
The new collection includes a lively mix of animal block prints and striking motifs in a variety of colourways. Available in blackout and translucent opacities, the versatile designs are made to order as roller blinds, and created with child safety top of mind:
