With their intriguing name you could be forgiven for wondering what a bottom-up blind actually is! Quite simply this type of blind works from the bottom up; the roll of fabric sits towards the window sill and is then raised through a simple pulley system to the top.
The advantage of this blind is that it creates privacy at the bottom and then allows the light to flood in at the top. Bottom up blinds are ideal for rooms that are overlooked, whether they be rooms next to a busy street or rooms up high that are overlooked by other tall buildings.
Before the advent of bottom up blinds the most popular solution to creating privacy has been to lower the blinds or close the curtains. The only problem with this has been that you end up sitting in the dark! Now you can raise the blind from the bottom therefore keeping the room private but still allowing light through at the top. You can happily sit in a light and bright room right next to the street, maybe watching TV or sipping coffee, while pedestrians pass by completely unseen.
These blinds are also a great solution to cutting down the glare on screens but still allowing some light to enter the room.
Available with standard fabric or blackout fabric these blinds are suitable for both living areas and rooms such as bathrooms. A blackout bottom up blind will ensure that bathrooms are lovely and light but privacy is protected with no outlines or shadows showing through to the outside world.
