This is why humidity and heat reign there, not to mention the grease stains that project everywhere. Rollers or boats, all models of blinds will suit the kitchen.

Nevertheless, resistant materials such as aluminum will be preferred due to their high resistance and ease of maintenance. Regular washing with a sponge and hot soapy water will get rid of any stubborn dirt. As for the living room, the nerve center of the house, but also the place where you receive friends, conviviality will be essential. With their vertical bands, the "Californians", preferably in wood, will make your living room a warm and welcoming room.

The boat or Venetian blind must be as obscuring as possible and chosen in stress-relieving, but above all soothing colors.
