Thinking clearly about the spaces we share.

The Livin Blinds Insights section brings together practical knowledge drawn from years of experience across residential, commercial, and mobility projects. Fifteen years of experience across residential, commercial, and mobility applications gives us a perspective on window treatment design, technology, and practice that is genuinely informed — and in sharing it freely.

Here you will find buying guides to help you navigate the choices involved in selecting the right blind for your space, trend pieces that explore what is shaping window treatment design, technical explainers on motorisation and smart control, and industry insights from our mobility division. Whether you are making your first blind purchase or specifying for a major development, we hope you find something useful here.

Trends in Window Coverings

 

The window treatment industry is moving in a clear direction: away from the purely functional and towards the beautifully integrated. Today’s leading interior designers are choosing blinds that work with the architecture of a space rather than simply covering the windows — products with considered proportions, refined hardware, and fabrics that hold their own as design elements in their own right.

Key trends we are tracking include: the continued growth of motorisation as a standard specification rather than a refined option; the rise of solar fabric as the default choice for commercial glazing; the return of warmth and texture in residential interiors, driving renewed interest in wooden blinds and fabric Romans; and the emergence of custom printing as a mainstream design tool rather than an occasional novelty.

In the sustainability space, energy-efficient products — cellular blinds, solar fabrics, and automated systems that respond to environmental conditions — are increasingly being specified as part of a building’s overall energy strategy rather than as a standalone product choice.
