Apollo combines raw materials and neutral hues to create some seasonal shutter style
Just as John and I were packing up to go on our holidays, we received a press release about trends for the cold times a bit further ahead...
Apparently, a major homes trend for Autumn/Winter 2013 is bringing the outdoors in. Emphasis is on sustainability and going back to our roots - reflected in the use of materials such as wood and stone and warm neutral colours.
The company boasts three ranges of stunningly stylish shutters - the Lifestyle Shutter Collection featuring durable vinyl shutters; the hardwood collection and the craftwood collection - perfect for creating the Alpine style that is predicted to be so hot this season.
Apollo offers shutters made from durable hardwood (light and premium) available in a variety of colours; dark roast, walnut, golden oak and natural are just some of the wood finishes to choose from. Wood-based shutters can be colour matched to almost any paint options, including Farrow and Ball and Dulux shades.
The made-to-measure Lifestyle Shutters are available in three stunning shades of white -cotton, pearl and vanilla. Highly durable and water resistant, they are immune to harm from water, humidity or moisture and easy to clean - making them perfect window treatments for bathrooms and kitchens.
The Lifestyle Shutters, manufactured in the UK, come with a 25-year guarantee and can be installed within just four weeks following an in home design consultation and measuring service.
Popular options for bedrooms are Apollo's affordable MDF shutters.
Made-to-measure shutters can be made to fit any awkward spaces from ovals to triangles to hexagons, so you can really get creative and make a real feature of unusual windows.
In addition to providing excellent light control and privacy shutters are also extremely versatile - suiting contemporary properties such as loft apartments right through to period style Georgian town houses.
