Choose by room what is needed for both day and night.
Often, different types of window furnishings are required for a home to address privacy and sun-blocking needs in different rooms. Light-filtering fabric can leave a bedroom bright at dawn, and a blockout in the living room can leave it dark at noon. Sydney’s north- and west-facing rooms take the strongest afternoon sun, so glare, UV, and heat matter most there.
The fix is to match the fabric to each room. At your free measure and quote, our design consultant will check each window and how the room is used to advise the most appropriate product/fabric.

Most homes mix types, for example, blockout in the bedrooms and sunscreen in the living area.

All of our blinds are made to measure and custom-made according to the suitability and fit of each window.
Blockout blinds use an opaque, coated fabric that prevents light from passing through the blind itself. They suit bedrooms, nurseries, and media rooms, as well as anyone who sleeps during the day. Roller blinds fitted inside the window reveal will have visible light gaps around the edges. If this is a concern, our consultant can recommend a different fitting option or a more suitable product.

Light filtering blinds use a translucent fabric that softens daylight and blurs the view from outside. They suit living areas, kitchens and studies, where you want a bright room with daytime privacy. At night with the lights on, silhouettes may show, so pair them with blockout where full night privacy matters.

Sunscreen fabric is an open weave mesh that cuts glare and heat while keeping your outlook. These blinds suit north and west facing rooms that take the afternoon sun. By day you see out while people outside see little. At night with the lights on the view reverses, so people outside can see in.

Double roller blinds put two fabrics on one double bracket, a single fitting that holds two rollers, one in front of the other. Usually blockout sits in front of sunscreen or light filtering fabric. Lower the lighter fabric by day and the blockout at night, for day and night control at one window.

For a traditional look, Roman blinds can be made from curtain fabric that folds into soft, even pleats as the blind is raised. They can be lined for light filtering or blockout, so they work in bedrooms as well as formal living rooms. Roman blinds can also be made with fabrics used for roller blinds, generally at a lower cost than those made with curtain fabrics.

Roller blinds have fabric attached to an aluminium tube that rolls the fabric up and down. They’re usually operated by a chain, with motorised options also available. Choose a recess fit inside the window frame for a clean finish, or a face fit over the frame to help reduce light.

Blockout in bedrooms and nurseries keeps early sun and street light out. You wake to your alarm, not the dawn.
Sunscreen and light filtering fabrics soften strong afternoon sun in living areas without closing the room in.
Every window is measured by a consultant and every blind is made to that measurement. There is no guessing sizes at a shop and no gaps left by off-the-shelf widths.

The price depends on window size, fabric, how the blind operates and how it is fitted. Every quote is measured to your windows and written, so you know the price before you commit. Our guide to what blinds cost in Australia explains the main price drivers.
Blockout blinds stop light passing through the fabric. Light filtering blinds soften daylight and blur the view from outside. Sunscreen blinds cut glare and heat while keeping your outlook, though the view reverses at night with the lights on.
It depends on the blind type, the fabric and whether the blind is motorised, so your consultant confirms the lead time with your quote. You will know the expected timing before you order, and we book the installation with you once your blinds are ready.
Every blind we supply is custom made to the measurements taken at your home, never cut down from a stock size. Ask your consultant where each blind type is made, and they can tell you at your measure.
Some existing blinds can be fitted with a Somfy motor, depending on the blind system and its condition. Your consultant checks this at the measure. If a retrofit is not practical, new motorised blinds can be made to fit the same window.
