Daylight has a significant impact on the human body’s functioning – both its physical and mental health. Access to it regulates, for example, the work of the body’s systems and metabolism, in addition to affecting well-being. We wrote more about this in or text “Daylight for health and well-being”. This time we will focus on screening solutions that give us access to a natural light source.
What are the most popular reasons for covering windows? In the case of internal fabric covers, these are usually: the desire to limit the heating of rooms, a need for a sense of privacy, or stopping light exposure which makes it impossible to work on a computer or watch TV. None of the above-mentioned reasons for equipping a window space with covers assume, at the same time, an interior’s complete blackout.
So how to combine meeting the most popular window cover-related expectations with gaining access to daylight with their aid? It is important to choose the correct option of a specific cover. The type of fabric, and more precisely its transparency, is of key significance. Here are some options worth taking into consideration:
COSIMO GEOMETRIC PLEAT – allows combining two fabrics in one cover. In the context of access to daylight, it is worth considering the combination of a curtain fabric with one that can blackout an interior to a greater degree. Thanks to such a combination, it is possible to ensure a sense of privacy and access to natural lighting during the day, and in the evening to completely shield a window from the eyes of passers-by.
DAY NIGHT SHUTTER – it is a fabric cover, which consists of horizontal stripes of fabrics of a different transparency. Depending on the positioning of stripes in relation to each other, it is possible to gain access to daylight and, at the same time, achieve comfort related to a sense of privacy.

Fabric window covers offer many possibilities. They can lower the interior’s temperature during hot days and simultaneously provide a sense of comfort associated with contact with daylight. A proper choice of fabric is highly important, and Akant advisers give you professional assistance in that regard.
