The Cavendish roman from Blinds 2go is a plain-colour roman blind in 35 shades, from £14.36. Where the designer roman ranges lead with pattern, Cavendish leads with colour: a clean, single-tone fabric folded into the soft pleats a roman does best. It is the range for a room that wants the warmth and drape of a roman without a print competing for attention.

Who it suits

Living rooms and bedrooms that want a soft, dressed window in a specific colour. A plain roman gives you the upholstered, gathered look - the pleats reading as a textile - without the visual weight of a pattern, which makes it easy to coordinate with patterned cushions, wallpaper or art elsewhere. The broad palette means you can match or gently contrast an existing scheme.

As a furnishing-fabric roman, it is a dry-room range, and it stacks at the top when raised, covering a little of the glass - fine on a taller window, less ideal on a short one.

A plain roman is a particularly safe choice in a room that already has plenty going on: it adds softness at the window without adding more pattern to manage.

The palette is well spread across warm and cool: soft neutrals (Barley, Parchment, Warm Stone, Pebble), a run of greys (Grey Wash, Mid Grey, Tonal Grey, Charcoal, Flint), gentle pastels (Warm Blush, Spearmint, Powder Blue) and a few deeper tones (Heather, Cinnamon, Damson). The neutrals and greys are the natural room-matching choices; the blush, spearmint and damson options add quiet colour for a room that wants a little. All sit on the same fabric, so this is a question of shade.

How it compares

Against a patterned or designer roman, Cavendish is the plain alternative - the same soft fold, without the print or the licence premium. It is the right choice where you want a roman's drape but not a roman's pattern, or where the room's pattern is coming from elsewhere.

Against a plain roller in the same colour, the roman gives a softer, more decorative finish at a higher price and stacks more visibly when raised. For a dressed living room or bedroom, the roman's drape is worth it; for a clean, modern, space-saving look, the roller is the leaner option.
