They say variety is the spice of life and where better to prove the point and make a statement than in your own home?

While it is common for people to pick a theme and stick dutifully to its conventions as they carry out home improvements, an Interiordec.com blog advised homeowners to be more adventurous.

So while Roman blinds may be suited to a Mediterranean theme, they can also be fitted in a more eclectic-looking room.

The website suggests that colours can be mixed and matched too, with contrasting tones often working just as well as those that complement each other.

Being more adaptable and open-minded when redecorating a space means it is easier to make purchases as things can’t be ruled out on the basis they don’t fit one particular theme.

Interior designer Linda Barker said eclectic themes are "exciting" and she encouraged more homeowners to try it.

Opting for a pink colour scheme with roman blinds to match can liven up a room, according to an expert.

Though some may think pink is a feminine colour which shouldn’t be used in gender-neutral areas of the house, it works well in bathrooms and can lend a sense of fun to an otherwise dull space.

Housetohome.co.uk says that, as it matches well with white, pink need not be too domineering in a room and it’s a colour scheme that is appropriate all year round.

And it also translates well in other rooms around the house, such as study areas, bedrooms or even in a lounge-diner.

Anyone with objections to a pink-dominated room can make concessions just by having one or two features in that colour, including blinds or cushions.

Roman blinds are also suitable for Mediterranean-themed rooms, according to interior design specialist Thomas Pretty, writing for GoArticles.com.

Roman blinds can help bring a flavour of the Mediterranean to a home, according to an expert.

Their cultured appearance and versatility make them an ideal solution to many window dressing problems, said Thomas Pretty in a piece for GoArticles.com.

"The look offered by roman blinds can be described as classical and elegant. Bringing a bit of Mediterranean style to any home is always advisable. This form of window dressing is relatively inexpensive, comparably costing around as much, if not less than curtains," he said.

Coming in a variety of colours, roman blinds can be found to match a variety of themes, not just the Mediterranean style, and they are also easy to fit.

In addition, they give complete control over the amount of light which is allowed into a space which makes them ideal at any time of the year.

According to HomesandGardens.com, roman blinds are a good feature in a luxurious bedroom.
