Forget this gimmick, the real yuropean superiority is in proper blinds that are actually designed to block most light. For some reason they are extremely uncommon in north America
I’m going to go absolutely bonkers if I have to deal with one more set of cordless blinds that refuse to lift back up after you pull them down. The unshielded street light that exists only to ensure that I can see my car from my window at night, and shines not only through the cheap pvc but between the slats directly into my retinas, lighting my entire room at least 10 lumens brighter when there’s a layer of snow on the ground, is already wearing my sanity quite thin on its own, and I’m not even on the floor that catches the most light from it.
My dad is a light sleeper and when he has to attend a conference in the US he literally has to bring a sleeping mask to ensure he will be able to sleep properly

I just want something my cat can’t destroy, is that too much to ask?
That line of thought is the first step towards making cats more destructive.
Yes.
But think of the curtains industry! We must protect it

They’re all over the place in France and Germany. Also saw them a lot in Greece but I didn’t visit that many places here tbh
Yes Greece and Italy definitely very common.
