Get the Perfect Patio for Summer
In Georgia, we enjoy a blissful but sometimes blistering summer season, which is why covered porches and enclosed patios become hubs of activity. They offer the beauty of the outdoors but the protection of indoors. Before the summer officially kicks off, it’s time to get that patio space in order. Our team of design experts has 5 easy-to-follow tips to help Georgia homeowners get the perfect patio, including recommendations for new patio blinds and patio roller shades that elevate the space.
Simple Tips to Improve Your Georgia Patio
- Refresh Your Patio with a Good Cleaning: Giving your outdoor or enclosed patio a good cleaning can transform the space and make it feel refreshed before having friends and family over.
- Layout Furniture for Functionality: Get new furniture or rearrange your existing furniture to best complement the shape and function of your outdoor or enclosed patio.
- Add Details to Make the Space Warm and Inviting: Think rugs, throw blankets, pillows, personal photos, anything that beacons to you saying come enjoy this space.
- Enliven the Space with Plants: Use greenery to connect your patio to the spaciousness of the great outdoors. Live plants can help carry the serenity of being in the great outdoors into your enclosed patio space.
- Update Window Treatments: Don’t underestimate the powerful effect that new patio blinds or patio roller shades can have on your patio. Window treatments control sunlight, which could otherwise engulf a patio, helping transform the harsh element of natural sunlight into welcoming illumination. Additionally, they provide privacy for a more comfortable and relaxed ambiance and protection against harmful UV rays. Lastly, they elevate decor with modern styles and materials. From the Hunter Douglas collection of window treatments, we love using roller shades and blinds in patio spaces.
What are Popular Options for Patio Blinds and Roller Shades?
- Patio Roller Shades: The chic style and modern light control mechanisms on select styles of Hunter Douglas roller shades make them ideal for the patio.
- Patio Solar Shades: Designed to handle abundant sunlight, Designer Solar Shades are one style of patio roller shades that specialize in curbing harsh sunlight and filtering out harmful UV.
- Patio Banded Shades: Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades provide privacy and light control for patios with the interwoven use of both sheer materials and opaque fabric bands. This style of patio roller shades has a strong linear element for a crisp, clean look that also feels open and spacious thanks to its unique mix of fabric elements and opacities.
- Patio Blinds: The tilting vanes in both vertical blinds and horizontal blinds let Georgia homeowners balance light control and privacy on their patios to meet their specific needs while also offering the benefit of natural airflow.
- Faux-Wood Blinds: While still having the timeless look of hardwood blinds, EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds also have elevated durability and resistance to UV that makes them ideal in sun-soaked situations, as we see on patios.
- Vertical Sheer Panels: Luminette® Sheer Panels combine the light control of vertical blinds with the soft aesthetic of sheer shades for patio blinds that are ideal for large windows or patio doors.
