Pret a Vivre Ltd project

Victorian Villa, Notting Hill W11

Brief: The house was conscientiously renovated with natural materials and texture at the forefront of the design. Large bays and windows in the opening of the mezzanine level required appropriate treatments to harmonise with the open spaces and smooth surfaces.

This west London family home needed window treatments to provide daytime privacy and blackout in the evenings. The preference was to work with linens for their fluid drape and natural fibres.

Linen is a beautiful material but as a natural fibre it continues to adapt to changes in the environment. For this reason longer curtain lengths were chosen so that the curtains would break on the floor. Similarly the roman blinds were interlined and hand stabbed for a polished finish

To dress the wide bays a lath & fascia hanging system was used to mount two tracks, one for a voile curtain and one for the heavyweight linen curtain.

The resulting curtains and blinds integrate seamlessly into a timeless design for this stylish family home, ready for to grow with them.
