Which blinds are best for privacy.

Window treatments that let light in but provide privacy.

It is not just the blackout and room darkening window treatments that keep the air inside at neutral temperatures. You can also easily create privacy by layering curtains. Some window treatments can be too heavy to lift and lower because of the required width of coverage. Vertical panels are made of pvc vinyl fabric or wood making a durable choice for your windows.

When the panels are closed they provide complete privacy to your homes and to let light in all you need to do is open one or few of these panels. You can opt for solar shades that let you see through them but filter the light and lower the temperature in rooms that get heated up by too much sun. Motorized shades work well on big windows says bridges. I would also suggest a top down bottom up shade.

Cellular shades come in a range of styles and fabrics which gives you the flexibility to choose the design that works best in your home. For privacy without blocking the light i would suggest cellular shades. You can lower the top of the shade down to let in more light while keeping the privacy on the bottom of the window. A heavier curtain placed on the outside of the frame will provide interest and can be drawn across the window anytime for added privacy.

Faux wood blinds sheer shades and day night honeycomb shades when closed for privacy can also do the job pretty well. Window treatments for rooms such as the bathroom and bedroom can have a denser fabric to provide privacy and more open spaces can have sheer fabric to let light in.
