A curtain (in the US, also known as a drape or drapery) is a piece of cloth intended to block
or obscure light, or draughts, or water in the case of a shower curtain. Curtains
hung over a doorway are known as portiéres. Curtains are often hung on the
inside of a building's window to block the travel of light, for instance at night
to aid sleeping, or to stop light from escaping outside the building (stopping
people outside from being able to see inside, often for privacy reasons).
In this application they are also known as "draperies." Curtains come in a variety
of shapes, materials, sizes, colors and patterns, and they often have their
own sections within department stores, while some shops are completely dedicated
to selling curtains. |

A window shutter panel is a solid, firm, erect, stable, strong, window covering usually consisting
of side stiles, top and bottom rails, and louvers. Individual shutter panels can
be hinged together to form a shutter unit, which fills a window opening.[1]
The term window shutter includes both interior shutters, used on the inside of
a house or building, and exterior shutters, used on the outside of a structure.
Shutters are used to control sunlight, provide privacy, add protection from weather,
and architectural allure. |

A window blind is a window covering composed of long strips of fabric or rigid material. Examples
include shutters, Venetian blinds, roller shades and curtain-like track blinds.
In Britain awnings are also considered blinds. A blind limits observation and
thus “blinds” the observer to the view. The main types are slat blinds which
can be opened in two ways and solid blinds. Slat blinds have long strips called slats. These can be rotated to open the blind while it is still covering the window. In track blinds the slats hang vertically from one end. In Venetian blinds and mini blinds the slats are suspended horizontally on cords. A slat blind can also be opened so it is no longer covering the window. Solid blinds can only be raised or lowered and are often called shades. In some such as Holland blinds and woven-wood blinds there are small spaces between the slats. In others such as pleated shades there are no spaces because the slats are sewn inside fabric. |
