  • Shutters, plantation style shutters. Talk to me about these. Realistically, how much light do they keep out?

  • Next to none. But they create lovely shadows.

  • Pretty much all, if fitted properly.

    And you get cheaper mdf slats rather than proper wood.

  • Plantation blinds are perfect if you want to keep bright sunshine and heat outside while still allowing tropical air to circulate. Their recent popularity in London is baffling. They take up quite a lot of room on the inside of sash windows (on account of them never having been designed to work with sashes).

    Can you tell I'm not a big fan of them?
