d. Roller blinds
The simple things in life are often the best, and nowhere is this clearer than with roller blinds. The design of the roller blind hasn’t really changed since its beginning — it’s still fabric wrapped around a roller — but new technology has resulted in a wider choice of fabrics and materials and increased sophistication of the roller mechanisms (which range from the standard roller to a mechanized, remote-controlled type). Roller blinds can be made to fit almost any size window and can be custom made in a fabric to suit virtually any decor. Roller blinds are also available in new UV-resistant materials. Roller blinds are relatively easy to maintain but offer little in the way of insulation.
(And this is what I installed. I will let you know in 2 weeks’ time how the workmanship is).

Hi!
I'm also keen on installing roller blinds (with blackouts) on all my bedrooms as they all come with bay windows. I think bay windows and curtains just don't match even though I've seen many photos of apartments of such configuration on the supplier's web site.
One problem is that I would need two roller blinds for each window as the shops tell me that most of the roller blinds have a maximum width of about 1.6m. So, that leaves a gap beween the roller blinds as the rollers need a gap between each other. Not sure if this is a problem...
Could you also tell us the shop that you bought the roller blinds from?
Thank you.
