Window shutters are available in all shapes and sizes, but few can rival the desirability or practicality of wooden plantation shutters.
A staple in homes and businesses of distinction for generations, plantation shutters are a uniquely timeless interior design trend. Now available in a limitless range of bespoke colours and configurations, quality wooden plantation shutters can be manufactured to suit all types of classical and contemporary interiors.
But what’s also appealing about plantation shutters is the way in which they combine beautiful form with versatile functionality. Along with making a beautiful visual addition to any interior space, plantation shutters also bring the following benefits:
Ventilation with Privacy
Plantation shutters feature louvres that can be opened and closed in countless configurations, depending on your requirements at the time. During the summer, windows can be left open to allow fresh air to circulate, while the angled louvres maintain total privacy indoors.
The same functionality can also be useful for blocking out daylight and creating a more relaxing environment indoors. This can be particularly handy for children and night workers - or simply anyone looking to relax in complete privacy and tranquility.
Bespoke Configurations to Suit all Spaces
The beauty of bespoke design lies in its flexibility and versatility. When wooden plantation shutters are made to measure, they can be manufactured in all types of configurations to suit all spaces. This includes larger window and non-standard openings around the home, which may be difficult to decorate with comparable types of window treatments.
Bespoke plantation shutter design also extends to a limitless range of colours and finishes. Whether looking to create a warm and cosy environment or refresh a room with something bold and breezy, it really couldn’t be easier. If in doubt, book your obligation-free home design visit from Riverside Shutters to discuss the options available.
Enhanced Insulation and Protection
Where plantation shutters are manufactured from the highest quality materials and installed with perfect precision, they add a welcome layer of protection to your property. This serves a multitude of purposes - blocking exterior noise, boosting energy efficiency and even heightening home security.
Some types of interior shutters can be fitted with a wide range of advanced in-built locking systems and additional security functionalities. Along with boosting the comfort of your interior spaces, premium shutters can also make your home a safer, quieter and more enjoyable place to spend time. The Portchester range of security shutters is an ideal solution.
An Improved Exterior Aesthetic
Lastly, it is worth remembering that premium wooden plantation shutters are also visible from the outside. Something that could have a positive impact on the market value of your home, boosting its curb appeal for potential buyers.
Coupled with the near-indefinite lifespan of quality plantation shutters, it all adds up to an exceptionally cost-effective long-term investment in your home. One with the potential to bring more benefits than improved visual appeal alone.
