If you are keen on creating an outdoor oasis in your backyard, apart from shade sails, investing in outdoor canvas blinds is a must. Canvas blinds are always a popular choice for a number of reasons. Suffice to say, it delivers on both form and function, as with all Gold Coast shade sails available at Hunter Canvas.

So what are the key considerations when choosing canvas blinds? Here are the top 3 things you need to keep in mind:

Most people, if not all want an escape from the scorching heat of the sun, while at the same time we crave for fresh air. With this in mind, it is best to choose canvas blinds in darker and heavier fabric to effectively fend off the sun.

A heavier fabric will also be more resistant to the wind and hold premature fading at bay. If you are concerned about the dark colour attracting mosquitoes, simply light up a citronella candle.

When it comes to choosing the design, you naturally want to take into account your existing exterior design. You will also want to consider the visual impact your canvas blinds will convey, whether you want a bright summery feel or you prefer subdued elegance that beautiful complements modern exteriors. The last thing you want is to have your canvas blinds stick out like a sore thumb in your home exterior.

Since it’s an outdoor space, you will want to also protect yourself from prying eyes and street viewers. At the same time, you will most likely want to lessen the intruding sound of honking traffic and the glare of bright lights. This is why a heavier, darker canvas blinds make perfect sense.
