Curtains or blinds?

Loft windows are splendidly crafted. They often extend from the ceiling to the floor, thus providing maximum light to the entire pad. Letting the natural light and air through the open window during daytime can be a great energy saving measure. However there are times when day light can be so intense and can hurt the eyes. This is when curtains or blinds come in handy.
Draping the windows with curtains or blinds can be a tough choice. Curtains give a touch of natural elegance to the room. Blinds on the other hand can be both functional and decorative.
In deciding between curtains and blinds, loft occupants must consider their own personal tastes. Though curtains and blinds are generally unisex, women commonly prefer curtains for the desired feminine touch. Men on the other hand are inclined to choose blinds because they somewhat speak of masculinity and efficiency. In the end however, aesthetics is often pushed to the back. So long as what you hang on your window serves its purpose, the choice between curtains and blinds becomes of less importance.
