The roller blinds have become very popular recently. It is not only popular in the living room or guest room but also in the kitchen or the bathroom.
Before the purchase, we are frequently not aware of the importance of the fabric of which the roller blind is made. We tend to consider only the pattern or colour so it matches the room design. The fabric is important first of all because not every material is equally durable or soil resist.
The most popular are the roller blinds made of polyester because the user has not got any problems with their maintenance and their colour remains the same for long.
The roller blinds made of polyamide are also recommended because they are resistant to UV rays and constant washing.
The roller blinds made of cotton and linen are nice by touch but unfortunately, they are more subject to deformation and shrinkage.
The best idea is to choose the roller blinds with regard to our personal needs. Factors to be considered are: do we want to darken the room slightly or cut off the light completely and lower the temperature as well as sun exposure.
Let’s select the roller blinds not only with regard to its aesthetic values but also practical ones. Avoid unnecessary problems connected with constant cleaning the obstinate stain which will occur after some time, anyway.

A proper insulation of standalone house is important for quiet and warm indoor atmosphere. Usually, the insulation is made on newly build building, but older houses are nowadays insulated to improve heating capabilities of walls. Insulating is simple process that do not demand high or specialist skills- only thing you need is time, walls and materials. Before laying an insulation, the wall should be clean and stable. That means necessity of removing all loose areas and dust from surface. Second step is priming the wall. Especially if the wall is already covered by plaster, the surface must be primed – it will improve stickiness and durability of glue that will stick plasterboards.

Nowadays, the fashion influences also the design of our houses. Because of the influences from TV, shops (especially commercials and shopwindows) and all kinds of catalogs, design of the house it on the same level of importance like its comfort, size or usability. We create our own art gallery, where everything has to be on its place.
The question is, what really influences such important now, design?
The design of concrete house starts basically with its foundations. The structure of the house, location of rooms, space which is created, size of the rooms, location (village, town, historic district, nature around) all those factor has impact on the future design of the house.
When the “shell” of house is ready, we can say that, the real design work starts. This is very important to think about the keynote or style of the home before all works starts. Firstly, you should try to choose between very general style like modern, classic, village style etc. Try to not mix such styles. The spaces with one given keynote seams to be more peacefully and elegant, then those with all possible kinds of modern and classical designs around. Of course some styles can be easily joined like traditional and modern. However, such connections needs a lot of imagination and sometimes advise of the professional decorator to give you demand result. Then just think about the colors which should dominate in given space. After such preparation you can start to choose proper floors, furniture and accessories.
