If you have a large double glass window opening to the patio, you might want to consider traditional fabric curtains. They are easy to remain open during the day. They fold nicely and if made from decent material, they will look nice with little effort. Curtains are also fairly easy to put up and to get them down. 如家有落地窗,你可考虑较传统的布帘。它们既容易安装又容易打开,也能保持白天一直开放着,花点心思就能折叠得非常好看。

They are grand for hanging in a bathroom or a kitchen. They are easy to hang, stay fairly clean and giving a chic look too. They are available in different colours and patterns, and some of them look quite nice.
卷帘非常适合挂在浴室或厨房。它们外观别致,既容易挂上又能保持干净。你可以依据自己的喜好选择颜色和图案来搭配家居。

They are very easy to clean and to sun block when they are winded up or shut. They can also cover large windows and there’s no problem with opening and shutting, or rolling up. Because of their style, they’re also good of popping up to cover that small window that you don’t know what to do with. 
百叶帘既容易清洗,又轻易关上或打开,遮盖力也非常好。它非常使用于大窗户,因方便卷起、打开和关闭,也容易取决于你要多少阳光照射进屋里。家里有个小窗户不知道可以怎么装饰的话,不妨试试百叶帘。

In some ways they’re similar to venetian blinds, but there’s a whole lot of difference. You can choose your colour and design very easily just like fabric curtains. But even better, they are made from a variety of material, such like firm polyester, bamboo, cane or soft wood. 
在某些方面,与百叶窗非常相似,仔细地看,却发觉它们有着很大的差异。你可以依据喜好选择颜色和款式,但重要的是,有非常多的材料可供选择如:聚酯、竹、藤或软木等。

Plantation shutters were originally used in old plantation homesteads, which was where their name derive from. In colonial days, they were attached to the outside of the windows and were primarily used to keep the hot sun and dust out of the home. These days, the shutters are usually attached to the inside of the windows. Shutters are attached to the panels, and these panels are in turn attached to the window casing. 
林百叶窗原本是用于老旧种植园的家园,这就是他们的名字来源。在殖民地时期,他们安置在窗户上,主要用来遮太阳及灰尘。近些年,人们基本都直接安置在窗户上。
