Custom Curtains & Blinds in Darlinghurst

Darlinghurst is about as inner-city as Sydney gets: a dense mix of Art Deco apartment blocks, converted warehouses and Victorian terraces squeezed between Oxford Street, William Street and the city fringe. It's a suburb that doesn't switch off at night, so the main job at the window is often keeping out light and noise from the street rather than managing the sun. Rooms are compact, neighbours are close, and a lot of the apartments have big steel-framed or floor-to-ceiling windows that came with the warehouse. Sway Curtains designs and installs custom curtains and blinds for Darlinghurst homes and apartments, with local support from our Moore Park showroom a few minutes away.

Curtains for Sleeping Through a City Night

A Darlinghurst bedroom needs to get dark and stay quiet, and heavy curtains help with both. Our blackout curtains block street lighting, headlights and the glow from the building opposite, and a lined, full-length curtain also takes the edge off the noise from the street. In the living room, sheer curtains give you daytime privacy from the neighbours across the lane while keeping a small room bright. Where a west-facing window gets the full afternoon sun, our light filtering curtains cut the glare and heat without losing natural light.

Blinds for Compact Apartments and Warehouse Windows

Space is tight in most Darlinghurst apartments, so treatments that sit inside the frame are the norm. Roller blinds are the neatest option in our blinds range for kitchens, bathrooms and small bedrooms, and they scale up well to the large steel-framed windows in a warehouse conversion, where they can run in a dual layer for daytime screening and night-time blockout. Roman blinds give a terrace bedroom a softer finish, and venetian blinds suit a home office where you want to angle the light off a screen. Many Darlinghurst homeowners mix curtains in the bedroom with blinds through the rest of the apartment.

Cord-Free Motorisation for Small Spaces

In a compact apartment, cords and chains clutter the window and get caught behind furniture. Motorising your blinds or curtains removes them entirely, and for a warehouse conversion with a wall of glass three metres high, it's the only practical way to operate the treatments at all.

A Quick, Low-Fuss Measure and Quote

We start with a free in-home measure and quote, where one of our team comes to your Darlinghurst property to talk through fabric, style and functionality based on your windows and how you use each room. We're used to strata requirements and the odd window sizes that come with older buildings. Everything is custom-made to your exact measurements, and we handle the full installation ourselves rather than outsourcing it, so the fit and finish stays consistent from start to finish.
