[ Wave Fold Curtains ]
Also recognized as the ‘S’ fold, this style features a seamless, evenly distributed symmetrical ‘wave’ formation achieved through a unique track and tape heading. The vertical lines elongate walls, creating an illusion of increased height and space. Easy to operate, it presents a contemporary and relaxed appearance, favored by interior designers for its understated aesthetic. Ideal for both Blockout and Sheer Curtains.
[ Triple Pinch Pleat Curtains ]
Exhibiting a smartly tailored, classic appearance, this style is ‘pinched’ at evenly spaced intervals, typically in groups of three. Perfect for traditional homes or formal rooms, it achieves a beautiful fullness and neatly stacks to the side, making it ideal for spaces with limited wall space. Well-suited for both Blockout and Sheer Curtains.
[ Double Pinch Pleat Curtains ]
In this rendition of the Pinch Pleat, the fabric is ‘pinched’ at evenly spaced intervals, usually in groups of two. Ideal for traditional homes or formal rooms, it doesn’t achieve the same fullness as a Triple Pinch Pleat, making it perfect for a neat appearance on large windows. Well-suited for Blockout Curtains.
[ Pencil Pleat Curtains ]
Pencil Pleat or Gathered Curtains showcase folds of fabric tightly gathered into small, pencil-sized pleats, allowing you to adjust the fabric’s fullness to your preference. Offering a softer and more informal aesthetic compared to Pinch Pleat, this style is versatile and suitable for both Blockout/Blackout and Sheer Curtains.
[ Reverse Pleat Curtains ]
An elegantly simple and structured style, this curtain design boasts a tailored appearance. Hanging below a decorator rod, it features a larger stack back compared to other styles, providing a clean and neat look. Particularly well-suited for Blockout/Blackout Curtains, it ensures effective light control and privacy.
[ Eyelet Curtains ]
The Eyelet style incorporates metal rings pressed into the top heading of the curtain. Paired with a decorator rod, it presents a laid-back aesthetic with minimal stack back. Ideal for smaller windows where maximizing natural light is essential. Suitable for both Blockout/Blackout and Sheer Curtains.
[ Fabrics ]
Selecting the right fabric is crucial when choosing curtains. Each fabric comes with its own distinctive characteristics and performance levels, making it vital to choose one that aligns with your lifestyle. Our collection encompasses a wide range of contemporary and traditional curtain fabrics, tailored to provide the perfect balance of light, warmth, and privacy in your home, office, or commercial space.
[ Banding + trims ]
Elevate your curtains with a decorative touch or a vibrant splash of color—our design team can incorporate banding or trims along the top, bottom, or sides. Choose a complementary fabric for a subtle and harmonious finish, or opt for a contrast fabric to make a bold statement. Additionally, the combination of sheer and heavier weight fabrics offers a beautiful way to introduce texture and enhance visual appeal.
If you have a room with soaring ceilings, banding is an ideal solution. By adding another fabric to the top or bottom of the curtain, you can attain the desired length without introducing additional seams. Moreover, banding across the top of a sheer curtain in a heavier fabric serves as a clever way to conceal a wall or the top of a blind that might be situated behind it.
