Set the mood with Sonnette™ blinds

The beauty of Sonnette™ blinds lies both in the fabric itself and the way natural light is diffused through the contoured fabric to create a gorgeous glow at the window.

Sonnette™ blinds combine the simplicity of a roller blind with the insulating cellular structure of a honeycomb blind for a unique look in your home, providing excellent energy saving properties.

What others have to say

Don’t just take our word for it. See below some of our customer's experiences, and the impact of having Duette® shades in their homes.

"I have had Duette blinds for over 7 years and I love them. They are easy to use, give a contemporary look and are very robust. They also keep the warmth in in the winter and the heat out in the summer."

"I’m extremely pleased with my Luxaflex Duette Trufit blinds and can honestly say our blinds look perfect for our new build apartment which has floor to ceiling windows in every room. I’m so glad I trusted the expert who worked with me to create an artistic and practical response to the modern architecture and views outside.

The windows are a mix of room darkening and semi-translucent which move top to bottom or bottom to top and anything in between, thereby allowing the right mix of privacy and fabulous light or night time views. I’ve really noticed a beneficial change in the temperature in the apartment - the morning sun used to make the bedrooms very hot but the temperature in all the rooms is noticeably even and more pleasant. Well done and thank you."

Save on your energy bills

Did you know that up to 50% of the heating energy can escape through the windows?
