Living rooms on winter evenings
185 nights a year fall at or below 0 °C. Closing the shutters after dark puts a layer of still air between the room and the cold glass; open them again in the morning so the window dries out.
Early light in June
Around the longest day the sun is up for 17 h 41 min here, so east-facing bedrooms get light very early. Full-height panels with the louvers closed keep most of it out; a mounting frame closes the gaps around the edges.
Short winter days
In December there are only 6 h 53 min of daylight here. Open the louvers fully, or swing the panels back, to let every hour of it into the room.
