📚 Shading Explained

Can blinds work on shaped windows?

Yes. Triangular, arched, angled or curved, unconventional glazing does not have to rule out effective shading.

BBSA members work with architects, contractors, specifiers and clients to design custom shading for exactly this kind of project.

📹 Behind the Blinds: Conversations with the BBSA Board

We caught up with Seb Wood of Solihull Blinds to ask what he sees as the key benefits of being a BBSA Member.

For Sebastian, it's the quality of the leads that come through, often more than covering the cost of membership on their own, plus the networking, which has helped him connect with some great suppliers over the years.

📹 Behind the Blinds: Conversations with the BBSA Board

We asked Sebastian Wood, of Solihull Blinds and the current President of the BBSA, how he's seen BBSA evolve over the years.

For him, the biggest shift has been a move from being reactive to proactive, with the association getting much more involved in legislation that affects the wider industry.
