You know that feeling when you step into a beautifully designed home and everything feels instantly calm? Light drifts softly through the windows, sheer fabrics move gently in the breeze and the space feels considered, effortless and quietly chic. It’s a subtle detail, but one that carries surprising weight in how a home feels the moment you walk through the door.
In homes that feel this thoughtfully curated, window coverings are rarely an afterthought. They’re an architectural element, considered early and designed to work in harmony with the home itself. Whether you’re updating your window furnishings, renovating or designing a new build from the ground up, window treatments deserve the same level of attention as cabinetry, lighting and flooring. They shape atmosphere by diffusing light, enhancing privacy and helping to keep a home cool in summer and warm in winter.
Planning that pays off
Designers and builders understand that every window plays a role. Orientation, privacy, heat and glare all influence how a room is used, and the right solution depends on more than aesthetics alone. Thinking about window coverings early also allows for popular motorised options to be seamlessly integrated, ensuring clean lines and intuitive control without compromise.
Rather than being added at completion, window solutions become part of the home’s design language, enhancing comfort while complementing the architecture. This considered approach can be seen in Luxaflex’s partnership with Veronica King of King Homes, where window coverings are treated as part of the architectural brief rather than a finishing touch. Designed alongside the home’s structure and interiors, the result is a space that feels cohesive, functional and beautifully liveable from the inside out.
Design the way you live
Designed by Veronica King and built by her husband, this home is deeply personal. Created as their ‘forever’ family home, every detail was carefully considered to support the way they live, now and into the future.
Throughout the custom-built space, made-to-measure Luxaflex window coverings have been selected to suit the needs of each room. Living areas benefit from flexible light control, while bedrooms prioritise privacy and comfort for rest and retreat. Kitchens and everyday zones call for streamlined solutions that manage glare without interrupting the home’s natural flow.
In the living and dining spaces, Luxaflex curtains in Lucent – Birch Bark softly diffuse light, creating an inviting atmosphere without sacrificing privacy. With expansive wall-to-wall doors connecting the interior to the outdoors, automation was essential. PowerView Automation allows the curtains to move effortlessly, opening the home to natural light in the morning and closing it down with ease in the evening.
In the children’s bedrooms, Luxaflex Duette Shades provide year-round comfort thanks to their innovative honeycomb design, helping to regulate temperature while also blocking out light. To maintain softness and cohesion throughout the home, Luxaflex Soft Roman Shades were layered over the top.
Each solution is custom made to measure, ensuring a precise fit that enhances both performance and longevity — something off-the-shelf options simply can’t replicate.
