What actually matters in a living room

Every Widnes living room project we quote hinges on the same set of questions:

  • How it looks from the street closed and open
  • TV glare from a west-facing window
  • Handling a bay window without visible gaps
  • Matching an existing paint or wood tone

Our default living room specification

Across Widnes living rooms we mostly fit:

  • Roman blinds in dressed fabric
  • Wooden venetian (50mm)
  • Vertical for wide bifolds

Roman blinds soften a bay without the bulk of full curtains.

50mm wooden venetian in a warm stain sits well against timber flooring.

Property-fit proof

A specification shaped by Victorian terrace openings

We start with the opening, not a stock package. In Widnes, that means accounting for Victorian terrace, 1950s semi, Hough Green detached and selecting frames, panel widths and materials around those constraints.
