Heat protection with style: Elegant curtains that reduce heating costs

Stylish thermal insulation means your home stays warm, heating costs decrease, and your decor looks more elegant. With the right fabrics, colors, and precise installation, thermal curtains become a visible and tangible upgrade.

Why thermal curtains are a smart choice

• Less heat loss: Dense, multi-layered materials form a buffer zone in front of cold glass surfaces.
• A more comfortable feeling in the room: Heavy, matte textiles reduce the "cold radiance" at the window.
• Saving energy: The heat stays in the room longer – the heating can run more evenly and at a lower temperature.
• More peace and darkness: Thick top layers dampen noise and darken the room when needed.

Materials that combine warmth and aesthetics

Velvet – soft, acoustic, luxurious

velvet Its dense, matte surface creates a warming and acoustically pleasant feel. Natural tones like taupe, greige, or sage produce a calm, high-quality look.

Linen/cotton blend – natural texture, modern tranquility

Linen-look fabric with a cotton blend combines a pleasant feel with everyday practicality . As a thermal dim-out fabric with a discreet reverse side, it fits perfectly into Scandinavian minimalist interiors.

Dual-layer dim-out/blackout systems

Outer layer made of thermo-dim-out/blackout material + inner semi-transparent daytime layer (in-between). During the day it remains bright and glare-free; in the evening you close the outer layer and retain warmth, quiet and privacy.

Color & style: this is how warmth looks good

• Tone-on-tone: Curtain color close to wall/floor (off-white, sand, greige) makes rooms larger and calmer.
• Gentle accents: Sage, smoky blue or stone add depth without appearing too cold.
• Matte surfaces: Fewer reflections, more coziness – especially in the evenings.

Proportion & Assembly: Closing thermal bridges

• Ceiling-high & wall-wide: Mount the rail flush with the ceiling and allow it to protrude 15–25 cm on the sides.
• Double track: Inbetween inside, Thermo outside – flexible from day to night.
• Floor finish: In walking areas, a “Kiss” (just above ground level) is used; in quiet zones, a smaller “Break” (2–3 cm) provides a tighter edge.
• Optional aperture: Concealed technology ensures a clean top line and appears "warmer".

Room by room: stylish warmth in everyday life

Living room

Close the inner layer for soft daylight; in the evening, close the thermal outer layer. Velvet in greige or taupe harmonizes with wood, wool, and travertine – cozy and sophisticated.

bedroom

Blackout with a thermal backing provides darkness and warmth. Medium natural tones (stone, taupe) are calming, and matte surfaces support sleep quality.

Home office

Inbetween reduces glare on the screen; during video calls and in the evenings, partially close the thermal layer – more acoustically and thermally pleasant.

How to choose correctly: three elegant setups

1. “Soft Luxe” : Exterior velvet in greige, interior in between in off-white – warm, calm, representative.
2. “Natur Modern” : Exterior thermo-dim-out in sand (linen look), interior in between in warm white – bright and serene.
3. “Sleep Deep” : Exterior blackout in stone with thermal backing, interior dense in-between – maximum darkness and quietness.

Measuring & Buying Quick Guide

1. Height: Ceiling to floor; define kiss/break depending on use.
2. Width: Window opening + 15–25 cm overhang on each side; for wall-to-wall installations, include the entire width.
3. Fold pattern: Calm wave folds, fabric allowance 2.0–2.3 times.
4. Layering: In-between layer inside, thermal layer (dim-out/blackout) outside.

Care & Longevity

• Gentle wash: Low temperature, low spin speed; hang up damp and reshape creases by hand.
• Ventilate regularly: Prevent condensation on cold windows; keep materials fresh.
• Brush velvet: Gently in the direction of the nap; avoid aggressive heat on thermal backings.

Common Mistakes & Solutions

• Planned too narrowly: Side gaps let in cold air – plan for generous overhangs.
• Only one layer: For north-facing or corner windows, it is better to plan for a double layer (Inbetween + Thermo).
• Glossy surfaces: appear cool and reflective; matte finishes are preferable.
