- Pick a contrasting shade – A lot of conservatories have a very minimalist design with neutral colours. If this is the case, getting a bold, contrasting shade of blinds can be a great way to add some colour to the room. A bold red, blue or purple shade would make a good choice in a conservatory with a lot of white or cream.
- Pick a shade that matches the furnishings – When picking the colour of blinds for your conservatory, you don’t necessarily have to choose something that matches the colour of the walls or floor. You might have smaller furnishings in the room and match the colour of your blinds accordingly. This can help to create a more subtle and balanced look.
