Real homes: Explore Duette® Shades

See how colourful homes enthusiast Geraldine Tan, known on Instagram as Little Big Bell, styles Duette® Shades in her London home. And, over in Yorkshire, we’re giving you a look into Lisa Dawson’s home, where our Duette® Shades feature in her home office space.

Duette® window coverings feature across Geraldine’s home, from the lounge and kitchen areas to the bedroom - showcasing how versatile this blind is in rooms that have varying functions.

With a love for colourful home interiors featuring in rainbow bright hues, Geraldine selected different fabric transparencies to match with the requirements of each room, opting for a translucent verison in her lounge and a duo-tone translucent/opaque option in the bedroom.

Allowing maximum control over light and privacy, top down / bottom up blinds were selected, including tensioned cords that keep the fabric in place and a handle to move the blinds as needed. The blinds perfectly diffuse light and provide superb energy efficiency, no matter the season.

The bedroom blinds also feature PowerView® Automation, allowing full control via Bluetooth or the Luxaflex® app.

Geraldine says: "Luxaflex®'s Duette® range of window blinds have exceeded my expectations. They are a great alternative to explore if you are not a fan of curtains. They can add to your home’s overall aesthetic whilst maintaining light control and insulation."

When Lisa Dawson was updating her home office, a room that’s used daily, we were on hand to show how Duette® Shades could work for her space.

Lisa had an initial consultation with her local Luxaflex dealer to go over the fabric choices, the blind's pleat sizes (there are a number of choices available) and finishing touches, before selecting a shade of green that provides contrast to the rest of the room’s decor.

This blind can be adjusted and moved from the top down and the bottom up, allowing full control over light and privacy. And, an important feature in a home office the blind’s help to reduce glare when at a screen, improving visual comfort while still enjoying the benefits of natural daylight.

Lisa says: “I’m really pleased with my new Duette® Shades and they’ve transformed the room. The simple and effective design means that they are unobtrusive and perfect for a smaller space and the soft green that I chose works well in my space.”
