A badly arranged bedroom can feel suffocating due to clutter, poor feng shui or unpleasant lighting.
If it’s time for a change in the bedroom, read on for some tips on how to make your room feel brand new with Somfy.
Update Your Window to the World
Replacing your old, outdated blinds and curtains can enliven your whole space. Not only does it give you the chance to change the colour-scheme of your room, you can also pick a new style and even update your manual coverings to automated blinds. Take it to the next level with Somfy’s home automation solution Somfy myLink and transform your home completely.
Style
Different window treatments add something new to your room. Try a new colour, pattern or style – you’ll be surprised how much your window coverings affect the mood of your room.
You can use any type of window covering in the bedroom as long as it enhances comfort and privacy. When selecting window coverings for the bedroom, it is important to find a solution that balances light blocking ability and your desire to not live in a cave.
Blackout blinds are an obvious choice for the bedroom, keeping light out and promoting sleep, even during the day. However, this can also be a drawback. Motorisation is a simple solution to this problem, making it easy to open and close them, depending on time of day, with just a click of a button on the remote.
Roman blinds are also a popular option, working just as well when motorised. The gently layered folds that characterise roman blinds lend themselves well to the bedroom. A light, neutral colour contributes to a feeling of calm that helps you unwind at the end of the day.
Motorisation
Consider upgrading your outdated manual coverings to stylish automated curtains or blinds. With automated window coverings, you can control sunlight from the comfort of your bed or pre-program your curtains or blinds to open and close at a time that suits you. Whether you want to greet the sun at 6am or shut out the street lights at bedtime, let Somfy do the work for you.
Control
With a range of control options, you can be sure that Somfy has your needs covered.
Whether you are interested in a sleek, customisable wall-mounted control like our Smoove range or our sophisticated Situo range available in pure (white) and silver, you can rest assured that our controls won’t clash with your interior décor.
Our wireless indoor sun and temperature sensor will automatically adjust venetian blinds or close curtains based on a preset amount of sunlight and inside temperature, giving your home a life of its own.
With our home automation solution, Somfy myLink, you can also control your window coverings right from your mobile device, even when away from home! The app allows you to set schedules and scenes, as well as giving you the ability to open your blinds during the day to let the heat in, and close them before you get home so you aren’t coming home to an igloo!
Light Up Your World
Opening up your blinds and curtains during the day to let in natural light can instantly make a room feel more spacious and connects your room to the outside world.
But did you know, Somfy can also sort out your lighting needs after the sun goes down? To enjoy the privacy of your bedroom, lighting can be incorporated with the ability to be turned on or off via remote control and can also be set to a timer. You simply need to ensure your lights have an RTS enabled receiver to ensure they are compatible with Somfy controls and away you go. Your Somfy Expert retailer will help you make the right choice for your space.
