Simply electric
Sometimes remote controls are so full of tiny buttons they’re unnecessarily complicated – but not ours. Slimline and simple, you can simply click the up arrow to raise the blind, and the down arrow to lower, watching as the luxurious folds gently descend.
Petal power
A flower pattern can be a really striking motif, especially when paired with bold colours, so how do you stop it from overwhelming your space? Keep it really simple. In this room, the green and cream colours dictate the colour scheme in the room, which is very sparsely decorated, with everything else being neutral, allowing the curtains to be the centrepiece.

Ageless designs
The muted colourways in our new collection help increase the versatility and usability of our curtains and Roman blinds, The soft pink in Willow Blossom teams beautifully with this children’s bedroom, the colour a delicate blush rather than a more garish hue, the pattern calming and repetitive, that will work from childhood to adulthood.

Precision
Made to measure is our speciality and when you have unusual windows in your home, you need experts to help you find the ideal solution. This dining nook makes clever use of this corner, but with a full expanse of windows, not to mention the ones above, light control is an absolute must. Crafted to the exact specifications of the window, these side by side Roman blinds are just perfect. Go electric and they'll open and close with a remote so you won't even have to clamber round the table to reach them.

Think space
Sometimes a Roman blind is a more practical option at a window, and it’s one of the reasons we always offer both options for every fabric. This bedroom window has no space either side to allow curtains to open, but the streamlined Roman blind has plenty room to rise in perfect folds.
Mix and match
Often people think that if the room has low ceilings, having a window so close to the top of the room means you shouldn't have curtains as they'll swamp the reduced space. A clever trick is to pair two single curtains, one sheer and one standard, and operate them as one curtain. The sheer lightens the overall look, while the blue patterned curtains co-ordinates the whole room together. And of course, if you have two such windows in the room, you've got a second "pair" with the remaining two singles from the set.

Perfectly pretty
This lovely children’s room features our William Morris Willow Blossom soft pink curtains with a neat eyelet header that gives a modern, fuss-free finish and makes them super easy to open and close. The gentle pink tone works beautifully with the peachy walls, creating a warm, layered look that feels both playful and soothing. These curtains are great for balancing light and privacy, perfect for daytime play and winding down in the evening. Styled with a matching canopy and sweet touches like the hot air balloon print, it’s a space that feels just as magical as it is practical.

Beautiful blues
Blue is having a real renaissance in the world of interior design and with striking curtain fabric like this it's no surprise. With a strong colour plus a pattern, keep the rest of your decor simple and don't try to match the depth of the colour. Instead, choose paler blues, without going too ice cold, and you'll reduce that intensity just a little, so it's not over-dominating the room.

Complete control
There’s nothing complicated about controlling our smart electric blinds. Simply pair them with a Somfy hub and you can then use an app on your phone or tablet to raise or lower them at will, knowing they’ll fold up beautifully every time.
Day to night
Create a cosy living space even when next to a door. These floral-patterned curtains bring softness and style to a room while offering practical benefits too, they're perfect for adding a layer of insulation if the door tends to be draughty at night and when pulled back by day, they frame the view beautifully. The warm tones in the fabric tie in nicely with the red sofa and patterned cushions, creating a relaxed, welcoming feel.

Practical
It’s a myth that curtains are too cumbersome for doors, and when you have made to measure curtains that effortlessly glide along tracks and poles they’re a great choice, especially for patio doors like these, in a living room that deserves beautiful curtains.
Quality fabrics
All our fabrics are the highest quality and crafted by experts to the exact measurement of your windows. This means you can breathe easy, knowing your curtains will hang beautifully and look stunning for years to come.
Rise and shine
Sometimes mornings are just hard work, but when your bedroom is as fresh and gently alive as this, it's just a little bit easier. The soft green and yellow tones are the secret, with William Morris Sunflower Harvest curtains really highlighting the extra-long window, welcoming in the morning light, while soft floral touches in the bedding, fireplace tiles and the picture above the quietly create a curated theme.

Iconic designs
Our new V&A William Morris Collection showcases some very familiar designs you’ll recognise, in colours you won’t. This fresh new take sees patterns like this well-known Strawberry Thief, in soft muted tones that work in any space, and are ideal where multiple blinds are required, like this dining area, where strong colour could be overwhelming.
Bathroom bliss
Bathroom windows can be some of the trickiest to dress, partly because your need for light versus privacy can change from one minute to the next, plus there tends to be a lot of white tiling which can make the room look cold. This bathroom window is large enough to give plenty light, but being directly above the bath could cause privacy issues, but the Roman blind is easily adjusted to deal with this. The striking pink bath is complemented by the pale pink blind, for a warmer touch too.

Forgotten spaces
Hallways can often be a neglected area when it comes to window dressing and decor, probably because it's more of a transition space than a room. Show your hallway some window dressing love and it'll raise a smile when you walk through the door after a hard day. Here this blue William Morris print injects structured colour, echoed in the simple print alongside, and the sprig of flowers on the table, for a mini-room co-ord.

Hidden details
All our curtains, including our new V&A William Morris Collection, are crafted with a standard lining, because it gives them a fuller, more luxurious look, helps them drape better and hang more evenly. You can also choose a thermal lining, which helps regulate room temperature by reducing heat loss in winter and keeping rooms cooler in summer, or a blackout lining, to reduce the early morning light, ideal for bedrooms.
From Spring to Winter
Sometimes it can be tricky to find a Roman blind fabric that can easily work throughout the whole year, too dark or heavy for spring, too light and airy for winter. Pimpernel Soft Rose is a fabric for all seasons. The soft rose pink is the epitome of spring and summer, light and fresh, and teams perfectly here with these walls and dressing table. Come the colder months the green comes to the fore, without being an obvious Christmas green. Dial the accessories up or down to the season for a budget-friendly year-round solution.

Twice as nice
Pairs of windows can be a great focal point , especially if they're equidistant on a wall, like in this dining room, and the cleverly-placed table really emphasises the pairing. But it also means twice as much light to control, especially if you're in the middle of a meal. This is just one of the practical reasons to choose electric or smart electric blinds - a quick click or tap on the app and you can control each blind, individually or as a pair, without even leaving the table.

Cool kitchens
Dark blue kitchens are very on trend right now and it's not hard to see why when they look this stunning. This Sunflower Inkwash Roman blind from our William Morris range is the perfect accompaniment, the ink blue pattern matching the units but also visually breaking up the blue with the white background. Go electric and you've got easy control too.

Layer it up
One of the most important things to think about with window dressings in a bedroom is privacy and how to balance it with light. This double blind combi is a change from the more common blind and curtain pairing and it's really effective. The Roman blind, in our new William Morris Strawberry Thief Dawn fabric, brings the colours to co-ordinate the room together, while the white wooden blind works the privacy angle.
