The Alternative To Blackout Curtains: Dim-Out Curtains Explained

The Alternative To Blackout Curtains: Dim-Out Curtains Explained

Blackout curtains are too dark for your taste? You can transform your space with dim-out curtains.

Finding the perfect curtains for your home is a task that is easier said than done. Sure, you’ve settled on your preferred curtain colours, patterns, and fabrics – just when you thought the ideation process is over, you’re now faced with a new dilemma; choosing between blackout and dim-out curtains. 

While blackout curtains may seem like the obvious choice for complete light-blocking as recommended by other curtain providers, dim-out curtains allow a soft glow to permeate the space, creating an inviting ambience.

So, what exactly is the right choice? Truth to be told – it’s all a matter of your own preferences. For example, if you don’t want your living room to resemble a pitch-black theatre room but still desire some level of light control and privacy, then you may opt for dim-out curtains. The same idea also applies to double-volume windows offices, bungalows or showrooms, where total darkness is not a priority to you.

Now, let’s dive into the benefits of using dim-out curtains for your space.

1. Better light control flexibility for your space.

Our dim-out curtains strike an ideal balance, allowing a controlled amount of natural light to filter through your space while maintaining privacy. Depending on what you intend to use each room for, different spaces would require different amounts of natural lighting. For example, you would probably prefer letting a bit of sunlight into your office instead of relying on lamps to illuminate a pitch-black workspace.  Therefore, consult your interior designer or curtain provider regarding the intensity of the dim-outs; they should be able to offer dim-out curtains with up to 90% blackout function.

Dim-out curtains, like blackout curtains, can also effectively block out sunlight and create a serene ambience.

Mr. Naaim’s house was adorned with double sheer curtains made of dim-out material, which perfectly catered to his requirements for sun-blocking and light control. These dimout curtains served a dual purpose: they offered privacy by obstructing the view from outside while reducing glare, yet still permitting a pleasant amount of natural light to permeate the room. Being someone who favoured a touch of sunlight in his personal space, Mr. Naaim specifically opted for dim-out curtains due to their ability to effectively block a minimum of 80% of incoming light.
