By choosing reflective styles of paint, homeowners might be able to improve the lighting levels in their properties, one expert suggests, which may interest those who are looking to complement a set of
Roman blinds.
Lighting specialist David Bergman is reported by the Edmonton Journal as saying that paint will reflect a greater amount of light if it is very glossy.
He commented: "The glossier, the shinier the paint the more light it will reflect."
Meanwhile, writing in the same article, Paul McRandle from simplesteps.org suggested that blinds may offer a lighting solution to householders.
By opening them during sunny periods, they can provide an alternative to electric lights by letting in natural sunlight, he pointed out.
For those looking for window covering options, Samantha Pynn recently wrote in the National Post that
roller blinds could potentially be a good choice for owners of condo-style properties.
