Practical guide
Which Fabric to Choose Depending on the Light
Each window's orientation and the amount of light it receives are two of the factors that matter most when choosing a fabric.
Very bright windows
In rooms with lots of direct light, translucent or screen fabrics help filter the glare without darkening the space completely.
Windows with less light
In spaces with less natural light, a light, lightweight fabric helps avoid taking away any more brightness than already exists, leaving the more opaque fabrics for where darkening is actually needed.
