Makes sense. My folks have bifold shutters and curtains. I'd probably have frosted glass on the lower bit for privacy. But although the shutters aren't air tight and open at the top, in conjunction with curtains it does help with drafts and noise.
If you're starting fresh, I'd probably go Ventian blinds.
Yeah, none feel quite perfect in a bay window.
We dont overlook any houses (@Fox my neighbours are selling if you want to jump over to the best road) so dont have any privacy concerns.
TBH I kinda feel solid shutters would be the best choice and only close them at night, but Mrs.116 disagrees.
