Available Options
Colour & Finish
- Colour: A cool, mid‑to‑dark graphite grey with subtle tonal variation. It sits between steel grey and charcoal, giving a calm, modern neutrality.
- Tone/Depth: Softly layered due to fine vertical striping; the overall look is medium depth with gentle shadowing that adds interest without feeling busy.
- Finish: Matte with a faint woven lustre. The texture reads as a linear, corduroy pattern—clean, understated, and contemporary. No shine, no gloss, and no heavy contrast.
- Visual impact: The vertical lines elongate the window and create a refined, architectural look. Against white or pale walls, the grey brings a cool, elegant contrast without becoming stark or overpowering.
Material Look & Construction
- Fabric feel (appearance): A stitched, polyester‑based material with a visible weave. The vertical ribbed detailing gives the slats a soft textile character rather than a flat block colour.
- Opacity: Light Filtering to Dimout—slightly more dense than most fabrics, ideal for softening daylight, reducing glare and improving privacy while still keeping rooms bright.
- Practical note: This type of lightly textured synthetic fabric is typically easy to maintain. Dust brushes off easily, and marks tend to wipe away with a damp cloth, making it suitable for family homes, kitchens, offices and working spaces.
