With the SA summer now in full swing, the market for blinds in Adelaide<\/strong><\/a> is running hot at the moment. Indoor window coverings – from roller blinds to roller shades or panel blinds – are achieving strong uptake in the South Australian capital as solar shading devices.<\/p>\n

Anecdotal evidence from the retail sector confirms business is up from last year. This is partly a seasonal development, according to one retailer, with many households experiencing a pre-Christmas renovation \u2018frenzy\u2019 in the lead-up to Christmas. However it\u2019s also due to the growth of new developments in Adelaide. \u201cWe\u2019re working a lot with projects to fit out houses and apartments to buy off the plan,\u201d says another. Another factor still is the influence of TV shows such as \u2018The Block\u2019 and the growing number of home d\u00e9cor resources on the internet.<\/p>\n

Dual roller blinds that offer visibility, privacy and blockout are especially popular among younger shoppers, says one retailer.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course in Adelaide we have a broad spectrum of housing styles. A lot of clients living in say North Adelaide would be owners of old Victorian houses and they\u2019d definitely go more for classic styles but we also get a lot of interest for roman blinds and more \u2018timeless items\u2019 that can work in a modern setting.\u201d<\/p>\n

In terms of the colour palettes being adopted, overall customers for\u00a0blinds in Adelaide<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>continue to opt for more neutral, conservative hues.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is nice when someone is a bit more out there though! Recently we had a really vibrant, bold fabric from a leading high end fabric supplier that did surprisingly well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Window treatment professionals working in the Adelaide market will advise customers according to their individual needs to recommend the best choice for their interior. They may also consult with an Adelaide based interior designer to find the best choice of blind for clients\u2019 individual style.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you want blinds that take up as little space as possible, it\u2019s worth looking at roman blinds and roller blinds. If your window fittings are tall, it might be worth considering vertical blinds.\u201d<\/p>\n

For suppliers of blinds Adelaide<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>has a well-developed market, offering expert advice on the pros and cons of certain fabrics and blind styles. They can also help homeowners determine whether packaged window coverings are the best choice for their interiors, or whether custom made solutions would work better.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re finding that customers tend to already be pretty well informed about the choices available to them. So product expertise and an understanding of the latest releases and trends are very important. We find customers increasingly asking us quite detailed questions about solar shading, visibility and temperature insulation elements of the products they\u2019re buying. They\u2019re also often interested in quite \u2018new\u2019 considerations such as acoustic performance. And of course, child safety is an important consideration when it comes to windows blinds in Adelaide, especially those with dangling cords.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the Adelaide market consumers are definitely prepared to invest seriously in their blinds and other window treatments. Often times we\u2019ll receive an approach from a client who has hired a professional interior decorator to work with them, but even if they haven\u2019t, they\u2019ve generally used the internet and other resources to really scope out what works for them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
