Types of Window Blinds
Venetian Blinds

Horizontal slats, usually made of metal, wood, or plastic.

Can be tilted for light control and raised for a full view.

Vertical Blinds

Vertical slats (often fabric or vinyl) that rotate open or closed.

Common for large windows or sliding glass doors.

Roller Blinds

Fabric rolled onto a tube and pulled down to cover the window.

Simple, clean look.

Roman Blinds

Fabric that folds neatly as it’s raised.

More decorative, softens the look of a room.

Pleated or Cellular Shades (Honeycomb Blinds)

Made of pleated fabric that forms cells.

Good insulation and energy efficiency.

Mini Blinds

Like Venetian blinds but with thinner slats (usually aluminum).
