A room that works hard

Washing machines, tumble dryers, muddy boots and pets — a utility room gets more wear than almost any other room in the house. So blinds here need to be practical first: easy to clean, happy with a bit of steam and simple to use.

Ideas that work well

Wipe-clean roller blinds: coated fabrics that you can wipe down, and that roll neatly out of the way — see wipe-clean blinds.
Faux wood venetians: the warm look of wood, without the worry of warping near a dryer — see faux wood blinds.
Cellular blinds: slim and insulating, and they sit tidily above a worktop — see cellular blinds.
Perfect Fit® blinds: ideal if your window tilts open for ventilation, because the blind sits within the window frame itself — see Perfect Fit®.

Style tips

We'd usually fit blinds inside the recess (the opening the window sits in), so they stay clear of taps and worktops.
If children or pets use the room, choose cordless or tensioned controls.
A cheerful pattern can lift a small, practical space.
