With current trends firmly embracing a 'get back to nature' feel, the beauty of real wood is hard to beat. Dimensions’ wood venetians collection includes eight different wood-stained finishes from light to dark shades as well as ever-popular white or cream slats.

All are available in 25, 35 and 50mm slat widths. The range of tapes available include six colours from neutral to black so homeowners can really personalise their look.

And because natural wood blinds can be heavy, especially on large windows, Dimensions offers a revolutionary 'easi-lift' pulley system on all wood venetians over 82cm wide. Hidden tidily at the bottom bar of the blind, it ensures that the blind will glide effortlessly up and down regardless of its size.

Sarah Quilliam, head of product design at Arena gives her top three reasons for choosing Dimensions wood venetians for the home:

· Wood's natural style works well in any type of surrounding from the very traditional to the most contemporary. Light tones such as hazelwood and butternut are perfect for creating a light and airy atmosphere or you can really make a statement with a blind in a rich, dark shade like hickory.

Our white and cream shades look really fresh and bring a delightful beachy feel to any room.

· Cost. Wood venetians give a very similar look and feel to sophisticated plantation shutters – at a fraction of the price.
· If you have a bay window in your home, wood venetians make a great choice. Not only can they be fitted to follow the lines of the window but they also offer a classic style that suits both modern and traditional decors.
