January marks the beginning of a new year and Stuart Clark from Victory Blinds shares his top predictions for the window trends set to be big in 2023.  

1. Electric 

"Smart homes are the way of the future and they present us with countless options to improve our living experience. Motorised window furnishings are one of those options, providing convenience, energy efficiency, safety and security. 

In 2023, set your blinds to rise at a certain time or use climate change sensors to ensure you are not caught out by unforeseen weather changes."

2. Incorporating natural elements

"Slow living and creating a serene environment in your home is in the forefront of our minds for 2023.  Wooden coffee tables, plenty of cushions and rustic themed rugs can all bring your living room down to earth, removing the pristine feel that is often associated with modern homes. Create a cosy atmosphere by opting for beige window dressings and neutral colours which compliment existing decor." 

3. Versatility 

"The need for versatility in window dressings has never been more important. Combining beauty, durability and versatility, shutters offer a contemporary solution to problems such as sun exposure and privacy that incorporates gorgeous design and kerb appeal."

4. Feed the need for privacy  

"Aluminium Venetians are a traditional favourite and are an affordable, functional way of furnishing your windows. Their horizontal slats are made of Aluminium and are fully adjustable to regulate light and privacy plus are manufactured to custom sizes to create the perfect look for your living space."
