Start the Year Right With New Blinds In Your Office

Invest in Commercial Blinds

A new start, new resolutions, new diet, new hope. The start of every new year brings with it a new sense of fresh optimism that we can use to make positive changes. New year's resolutions can be about starting something new, not just stopping something. Try to put a positive spin on your resolution. You can also make resolutions about your working life as well as your home life.

New Year New Blinds?

A small change that can improve your work life is installing new blinds in office windows. Unique and practical commercial blinds and curtains can lift spirits in the office. This because they can improve the lighting as well as add a fresh new look to the office.

Different Styles, Sizes and Shapes 

Commercial blinds, just like businesses, come in different styles, sizes, and shapes. If you think those off-white vertical blinds with the drawstring and chain-link thread is the best your office can get. Think again.

Office blinds can be as versatile as any office furniture. You may want to go for office roller blinds to make it easier to control the amount of light coming in. Or perhaps you prefer the style and functionality of Venetian blinds, which come in a variety of colours and materials. 

There are also blinds that are known as ‘day/night’ blinds which allow light to enter your offices whilst keeping out the glare of the sun. These are very useful if you have an open-plan or south-facing office. Especially on the four days a year when we get sunshine in the UK.

Colour 

Colour is very important for office blinds. Ancient Chinese and Egyptian cultures practised something called chromotherapy. They believed that the use of colour can be used to heal. Nowadays it’s called light therapy or ‘colorology’. 

It is still used in holistic treatments and alternative therapies. Whilst some people may view colour therapy with sceptical eyes. There has been research that shows that people react differently to colours and it can have an impact on a person’s work productivity and happiness. 

Psychology Circles

When you're looking for your new commercial blinds always consider the impact of their colour. Colours can reflect a certain mood:

  • Blue reflects calmness

  • Brown is reliability

  • Orange represents enthusiasm or attention

  • Yellow is energy

This is why colour is so important. It's not just about how your office blinds look, they can have a positive effect on your mood.

In Summary, 

A new set of commercial blinds are a great way to refresh an office and bring some much-needed colour to the workplace. They will make everyone stop wanting to look out of the window and instead start the new year looking AT the window and some lovely new blinds.
