I try to be as open-minded about products as possible – to ensure that on each client project we’re recommending the best possible product, application or hardware for the job.

Blind cord safety
The tragic news broke a couple of weeks back that another toddler has died after becoming entangled in a blind cord – and the fact that it happened to the child of a Norwegian shipping and oil tycoon seems to make the story resonate even stronger.

Laminated Roller Blinds – a truly made to measure solution
Here’s why laminated blinds exist: A neighbour has helpfully felled some tall trees in their garden, suddenly bathing your sitting room and kitchen in dazzling sunlight that you never thought you’d be entitled to. Lovely you might think. But then you realise that there are times during the day when the sunlight needs to be [...]
Blinds for Bifold Doors
The genius of the bifold: Bifold doors should be at the top of the wish list for any kitchen or other living space renovation.
