A little forward planning means you can remove the need for unnecessary heating and cooling. You just need to think in advance about how to harness the effects of the sun and seasons. Home office blinds can keep warm or cool in or out, depending on your needs.
Our Duette® Architella® Shades help manage heat and light keeping you cooler in summer, warmer in winter and insulated all year round. Being comfortable will also help you focus on the task at hand.
Many of our product are made with sustainable and recycled materials meeting the highest international standards for health and sustainable design.
The special structure of many of our fabrics including Pirouette® Shade, maximises any available daylight by dispersing it gently across the room, preventing the need to switch on electrical light for longer.
When you do need to call on electric light, remember home office lighting can still mean healthy lighting. Vitamin D can be an issue for many, especially those who work indoors who don’t get as much time as they’d like outdoors. SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) can also strike some when the winter draws in, bringing with it a low mood.
A natural daylight bulb in your vintage Anglepoise lamp can work wonders for lifting spirits, as can contemporary pendant lighting that addresses a more demanding need. Look for those that can deliver at least 2,500 lux (the measure of light that lifts mood) and can change tone as you like from bright to warm.
