Curtains
Every curtain we make is woven from a durable polyester-based fabric with a 70% blackout weave, in more than 100 designs, available as a single panel or as a pair. That means the light control comes built into the cloth, so you never have to trade the colour you want against the darkness you need. Below you'll find our curtains organised the way people actually shop for them — by room, by window, by colour and by style.
Blackout curtains
Blackout curtains are the reason most people arrive here, and every panel in the range is one. Our 70% blackout weave blocks the large majority of incoming daylight while leaving a soft, even glow rather than pitch darkness — in practice, the light level most people actually want in a room they sleep in. Because the blackout performance is woven into the cloth rather than added as a separate coating, white blackout curtains, black blackout curtains, grey blackout curtains, cream blackout curtains, beige blackout curtains, pink blackout curtains, blue blackout curtains and green blackout curtains all perform identically. Shade affects the look, not the light control — though darker cloth will always absorb a little more.
Blackout curtains for bedroom windows are the most requested version, closely followed by blackout curtains for living room glare and blackout curtains for nursery naps. Short blackout curtains suit sills and radiators, blackout window curtains suit standard openings, and patterned blackout curtains and floral blackout curtains prove that light control doesn't have to mean plain cloth. If you search for black out curtains, blockout curtains or block out curtains, you're in the right place — same product, different spelling depending on where you shop.
Single panels and pairs
Every design is sold both ways. A single panel curtain suits narrow windows, doorways, French doors and any opening you'd draw from one side only — it's also the sensible choice where a wall or a return stops the curtain stacking evenly on both sides. A pair suits standard windows, bays and patio doors, where drawing from both sides gives a symmetrical fall and a cleaner meeting point in the middle. Curtain panels are sold by the panel width, so if you're replacing an existing pair, count what's currently hanging rather than measuring the glass — two panels on a wide window will always hang better than one stretched across it.
Living room curtains
Living room curtains carry more visual weight than anything else in the room, so length and colour matter more here than anywhere. Floor-length panels make a low ceiling read taller and a modest window look generous. Green curtains for living room schemes have become the default for a reason — sage green curtains, olive green curtains, forest green curtains and dark green curtains all sit beautifully against wood, brass, rattan and warm white walls. Cooler rooms take grey curtains for living room use, blue curtains for living room settings, or cream curtains for living room warmth without colour commitment. White curtains for living room spaces keep everything light. If the room faces a bright street or a west-facing garden, blackout curtains for living room use will cut glare on a television without turning the room into a cave.
Bedroom curtains
Bedroom curtains are chosen for sleep first. Blackout curtains for bedroom windows are the single most requested thing we make, and the best blackout curtains for bedroom use are usually the darker shades — black curtains for bedroom schemes and navy blue curtains absorb the most light. Grey curtains for bedroom settings and white curtains for bedroom schemes give the same 70% blackout weave in a lighter register. Pink curtains for bedroom rooms, grey bedroom curtains and white bedroom curtains are perennial sellers, and blue curtains for bedroom schemes suit north-facing rooms that already run cool. Where a radiator or a built-in sits under the window, short curtains for bedroom use finish neatly at the sill. Bedroom window curtains and bedroom drapes and curtains cover the same need under different names depending on where you shop.
Kitchen curtains
Kitchen curtains face steam, splashes and a shorter drop, so they work best when they stop above the worktop rather than pooling near a hob. Kitchen window curtains, kitchen cafe curtains and cafe curtains for kitchen use all solve the same problem — privacy at eye level with daylight left free above. Gingham curtains, check curtains, buffalo check curtains and plaid curtains suit the informality of the room, while modern kitchen curtains and farmhouse kitchen curtains anchor a fuller scheme. Country kitchen curtains remain the most searched kitchen style of all.
Kids' and nursery curtains
Kids curtains and childrens curtains benefit most obviously from the blackout weave, because daytime naps depend on it. Nursery curtains, blackout curtains for nursery rooms and nursery blackout curtains are usually the first thing new parents buy for the room. Kids blackout curtains and childrens blackout curtains carry the same 70% weave in brighter designs — dinosaur curtains, star curtains, butterfly curtains and bird curtains among them. Childrens bedroom curtains and loft bed curtains cover the older end of the same range.
Dining room, bathroom and everywhere else
Dining room curtains and curtains for dining room settings want drama more than function, so this is where richer colours earn their place. Bathroom window curtains need a shorter drop and a fabric that shrugs off humidity. Basement window curtains handle small, high openings. Bedroom divider curtains and room divider curtains are increasingly used in open-plan flats to separate a sleeping area from a living one — faster and cheaper than building a wall, and reversible when you move.
Curtains for bay windows, patio doors and awkward openings
Standard panels fail at non-standard windows, which is where most curtain-buying frustration comes from. Bay window curtains need enough width across three or more facets to close cleanly without gaping at the joins — window curtains for bay windows and curtains and drapes for bay windows are the same search under different phrasing. Patio door curtains and sliding patio door curtains must clear a walkway, so they want to stack well back off the glass. French door curtains and curtains for french doors sit closer to the frame on a slimmer drop. Curtains for arched windows and curtain designs for arched windows need thought about where the pole sits relative to the curve.
Smaller openings have their own rules: small window curtains, short window curtains and curtains for small windows should finish just below the sill, because anything longer looks accidental. Front door curtains, door window curtains and front door window curtains add privacy and cut draughts at glazed entrances. Doorway curtains do the same job where there's no door at all. Curtains for large windows go the other way entirely — the wider the opening, the more gather you need for the fabric to still fall in folds when closed.
Curtains by colour
With more than 1,000 designs, the range runs the full colour wheel. Neutral curtains form the foundation most rooms are built on: white curtains, off white curtains, cream curtains, beige curtains and taupe curtains. Grey curtains and dark grey curtains sit a step cooler; brown curtains a step warmer.
Green is the colour of the moment and we make every version of it — sage green curtains, olive green curtains, emerald green curtains, forest green curtains and dark green curtains. Blues run from duck egg blue curtains and blue grey curtains through to navy curtains, navy blue curtains and dark blue curtains, with teal curtains bridging into green. For warmth, red curtains, burgundy curtains, terracotta curtains, burnt orange curtains, orange curtains, mustard curtains, mustard yellow curtains, yellow curtains and gold curtains all carry a scheme on their own. Pink curtains and blush pink curtains soften a room; purple curtains deepen it. Black curtains give the strongest light control we offer.
Two-colour combinations are searched almost as often as single shades: black and white curtains, blue and white curtains, black and gold curtains, and blue and green curtains.
Curtains by style
Country curtains and cottage curtains remain the most popular style we sell, with french country curtains and modern farmhouse curtains close behind. Boho curtains and bohemian curtains suit layered, textural rooms. Mid century modern curtains work with tapered legs and walnut. Modern curtains and contemporary curtains keep things clean, while luxury curtains and designer curtains lean formal — hotel curtains being the reference point most people have in mind.
For period homes, victorian curtains, art deco curtains, vintage curtains and retro curtains match the architecture rather than fighting it. Shabby chic curtains, rustic curtains, cabin curtains, western curtains and primitive curtains all soften a room. Coastal curtains suit light-filled spaces; industrial and gothic curtains suit dark ones. Japanese curtains and noren curtains bring a distinctive doorway solution. And if you simply want cute curtains, fun curtains or funky curtains, that's a legitimate brief too.
Patterns and prints
Floral curtains lead the category, with vintage floral curtains, blue floral curtains, green floral curtains and pink floral curtains all strongly searched. Striped curtains follow — blue striped curtains, green striped curtains and black and white striped curtains among them. Then plaid curtains, tartan curtains, gingham curtains, checked curtains and herringbone curtains for texture and structure; geometric curtains, damask curtains, toile curtains and block print curtains for a more designed look. Animal print curtains, leopard print curtains and zebra curtains make a statement. Textured curtains, ruffle curtains, patchwork curtains and scalloped curtains add detail without adding colour. And patterned curtains, printed curtains and patterned blackout curtains cover everything else in the range.
Fabric, blackout and fit
Our polyester-based fabric was chosen for how it behaves over years rather than months: it holds colour against direct sunlight without the fading that affects many natural fibres, resists creasing when drawn daily, hangs with weight instead of clinging, and doesn't shrink the way untreated fabrics can. The weave is opaque rather than sheer, so privacy is constant whether the curtains are open or closed. Ready made curtains cover the standard drops in both single panels and pairs, and if nothing in the 1,000 designs is right, our team can create a new one to match a colour or motif already in your room.
