When Lauren and her partner renovated their home in Melbourne’s north eastern suburbs they considered the window furnishings such an important part of the project they factored them in at the beginning.

Made from timber or aluminium blades, our Venetian Blinds are modern and functional, offering excellent privacy, light control and ventilation. Easy to use, Venetian Blinds allow you to open and close the blades to any position and control the direction of sunlight throughout your room or home.

They can be recessed or face fitted, meaning the Venetian Blinds can be installed inside the window frame or on the architrave bordering the window. In addition, Venetian Blinds can be locked into position at the bottom using a pin and bracket system which makes them suitable for glass doors or windows which are frequently opened and closed.

A great choice to co-ordinate with Curtains, Drapes , and Tiebacks.

The difference in our Venetian Blinds is in the detail. We use a top of the line technically superior hardware system. Perfected by years of extensive research and development, the operating system has been designed for precision. Our Blinds are also designed with extra componentry as standard, at no extra cost, to ensure the most durable and long lasting Venetian Blinds available.

For a step-by-step guide on choosing your Venetian Blinds, call for assistance or visit your nearest store.

Choose your fabrics by borrowing our large full-length samples to compare the fabric weights, transparencies and colours in your own home. Compare your favourite fabric choices at large scale with your paint colours, flooring + furnishing, and view them in different lights. It’s the best way to start.

In the beginning.

Our Automate® window coverings add more to a home than just convenience by facilitating the advanced control of your interior climate. Regardless of how sophisticated your window glazing or tint may be, they’re rarely a match for the benefits of Automated window coverings.

Wild weather shifts, strong sun rays or cold overcast skies, usually result in excessive use of air-conditioning, heating and lighting. Although it may be second nature to reach for the thermostat it can prove to be detrimental to your yearly energy expenses, not to mention its negative effect on global climate control.

Similarly, switching the lights on in your home is traditionally more convenient than manually raising Blinds or opening Drapes. Unfortunately, this too has a negative impact on your home, your wallet and our planet. Our Automate® window covering systems add a new dimension of control and convenience that can help you break out of conventional and costly habits.

Research has found that windows left uncovered are responsible for up to a 40% loss of heating energy, while conversely also contributing up to 87% of a home’s heat gain*, depending on external weather conditions. Mitigating such high amounts of energy transfer through windows can be as simple as raising or lowering your window coverings at optimal times.

Motorised window coverings seamlessly integrate into modern day living and offer a safer and more efficient solution than their manually operated counterparts. Effortlessly manage your window coverings with dynamic control options, from remotes to sun-sensitive sensors.

Material world.

Roller Blinds are one of the most popular window treatments for any room of the home. They’re incredibly versatile, can be automated and are cost effective. 

While there will be small light gaps when using Roller Blinds in a corner window, they are minimal. For main living areas where you don’t need complete blockout, this can be a streamlined and affordable window covering solution.

In this photo, we’ve designed Blockout Roller Blinds under matching Bonded Pelmets.

Practical benefits.

Ensure the bottom of your Blinds have the right finish to complete your design scheme. For a contemporary and streamlined look choose a stitched pocket or bottom rail. If you prefer a classic style opt for a scallop finish with braid or fringe or choose a pop of pattern with a bonded insert in a drapery fabric.

Our base rails are constructed from premium aluminium for added strength and durability, they also provide weight to control movement of your Blinds during operation or from breezes. Choose from the oval shape, d-shape or fabric wrap base rail for a seamless and stylish finish to compliment any style interior.
