One of the up-sides of spending more time at home due to the Covid-19 pandemic is that we get to spend more time with family. Décor trends prioritise warm, inviting surroundings, not the sparse, clinical interiors of yesteryear. Trellidor have some ideas to share to achieve this change in direction.
Functional vs frivolous
Lockdowns have forced us to assess what we really need and what is unnecessary clutter or overly pretentious. Fussy curtains and busy burglar bars fall into the latter category. Rather opt for aluminium shutters that replace curtains, blinds, and burglar proofing in streamlined product one and are visually pleasing.
Low maintenance and practical
Our greatest need now is to reduce stress, so practical products that don’t need much upkeep are high on the list. Security shutters are a perfect fit. Robust enough for frequent use, they’re simple to wipe down when dirty or dusty. Trellidor Security Shutter louvres are tilted by hand, so you can get your privacy levels, air flow and light penetration just right.

Perfect for patios
Many of us work from home now, holding virtual meetings on the patio while keeping a watchful eye on children playing nearby. Aluminium louvre shutters around the patio allow you to open up to reveal the view and keep an eye on children playing outside. Or close and lock them for a safe ‘indoor’ place for children to play in bad weather.
On-trend colours
Bland colour palettes are on their way out, with characterful colours being chosen to add some warmth and comfort to our homes. Crisp white is most often chosen for security shutters, but Trellidor offers a wide range of colours that add richness and character to home décor. Try matt black, matt charcoal or matt bronze for shutters that provide some visual fun in your home.
Multi-functional spaces
Shutters can be used to create privacy in open plan interiors, so there is no conflict between those working in the dining area and others watching TV in the lounge, for example. Security shutters divide up a room when you close them and open again for a free-flowing space.
Unobtrusive security
Secure estates usually have rules about what you can and can’t do to the appearance of your home. Security shutters fitted internally don’t violate any of these rules. They provide security without looking like security barriers at all, making them totally acceptable in this type of development.
Integrate old and new
One of the biggest trends in interior décor is the integration of traditional and contemporary design. We are displaying décor items that are meaningful rather than purely fashionable, blending our modern interiors with family heirlooms or holiday mementos. Security shutters fit into this trend seamlessly because they harmonise with any home style, from traditional to modern.
