Custom Shade Blinds That Soften Light and Keep Your View

Shade blinds combine sheer and solid fabric bands in one blind, so you get a full view, soft diffused light and privacy whenever you need it.

With Illusion Shade, colour-coordinated panels overlap each other. When the blind is closed, all incoming light is diffused; when it is partly open, light filters through the sheer sections. A simple chain control lets you set exactly how much light comes in, and the panels retract fully for a clear view.

Every shade blind sits in a smooth horizontal cassette and is available in a range of neutral colours, and each one is custom measured, made and installed by Australian Window Covering across Melbourne.

  • Privacy When You Need It:

    Close the panels to block the view into your home without shutting out all the daylight.

  • Precise Light Control:

    A smooth chain control lets you set the level of light and privacy for every time of day.

    The layered fabric helps insulate against heat, cold and outside noise, keeping rooms comfortable all year.

Shade Blinds for Bedrooms & Living Areas

In living rooms, bedrooms and family rooms, shade blinds let in soft, diffused daylight while keeping your privacy. Open the sheer bands to enjoy the view, or close the panels for a calm, private space in the evening.

How Illusion & Shangri-La Shade Blinds Work

Sheer shade blind filtering daylight while keeping the outside view
  1. Sheer and Solid Bands:

    Shade blinds combine sheer and solid fabric in one blind, so you can move between soft light and privacy.

  2. Overlapping Panels:

    With Illusion Shade, colour-coordinated panels overlap. Closed, they diffuse all incoming light; partly open, light filters through the sheer sections.

  3. Fabric Vanes:

    Shangri-La blinds use soft fabric vanes wrapped in translucent sheer, like a modern venetian blind.

  4. Angle Control:

    The control system lets you change the angle of the vanes to set the light and privacy you want.

  5. Fewer Light Gaps:

    Hidden cord holes reduce the small gaps of light you get with traditional blinds.

  6. Year-Round Insulation:

    The layered fabric adds insulation against heat, cold and sound.

Would recommend Australian Window Covering. Joe who comes to measure & quote is friendly, knowledgable and professional. Steve the installer was great, a pleasure to have in my house. Shutters look incredible, so good that I got them back to install them on all of my windows!
