        What color works best for my situation?

        If you are struggling with finding out what color would work best, use the below guidelines to help aid in your decision making.Ā 

        • If you are looking for a lot of privacy, choose a colorĀ that is as light as possible. With a light colorĀ (Chalk or Bone) it is more difficult to look inside than with a dark color.
        • If you are looking for a lot of sun protection, choose a light color. After all, it reflects most of the solar energy.
        • If you are looking for a nice and sharp view to the outside (or a nearby room), then choose a dark color. Coal (black) gives you the most visual contact with the outside world.
        • If you are looking for light reduction to reduce annoying light reflections in your computer screen, choose a dark color. These absorb more light than the light colors.
