With a traditional facade and unique heritage features within the house, we wanted to create something modern while honouring what was already there. We worked closely with the team at Luxaflex® Window Fashions, a premium brand we are also proud to be ambassadors for so that we could get the exact look we wanted in every single room.
We chose Luminette® Privacy Sheers for the master bedroom in ‘Ideal Greige’ with room darkening opacity. They are a visually striking alternative to sheer curtains – they have the benefit of translucent or room darkening vertical vanes that provide perfect light and privacy control with full 180 degree closure. They are a true luxury product and really ticked all of the boxes for us.
We chose to install the Luminette Privacy Shades here too – this time in China White and translucent opacity. This style of blind is ideal for someone who would like a window covering but still wants to enjoy a view. They added luxury, but also that touch of softness that that space needed.
The two upstairs bedrooms both feature Duette® Architella® blinds in Elan Black Onyx and Platinum. These shades are particularly good for bedrooms as they have minimal light gaps and can achieve 100 per cent light blockout so that street lamps and early-morning sun don’t disturb a restful night’s sleep.
The house has a stunning location with dazzling city views, which we also really wanted to maximise. We recessed the Duette blinds into the bulkhead so when you’re looking out the window you don’t have any obstruction.
The whole house is fitted the award-winning Luxaflex PowerView® Motorisation to power its window coverings – and is one the very first properties to install the next generation model of home automation technology.
Most products are still manufactured in Australia, and the brand has unprecedented access to the best window coverings research and development from the US and Europe, ensuring continuing evolution and product excellence.
