Daylight stays in the room. From the street you cannot see in once it is drawn. That was the brief. Soft, not a blackout, and that is why I bought it.

Linen look without the crease drama. It hangs even, filters the glare, and the colour is exactly the sample. Made-to-measure so the drop is not short.

Pretty and light. Privacy in the day is good. At night with the lamps on you still see a silhouette. I knew that. I wanted daylight, not a cave.

Sitting room on the street. We wanted the window to stay bright. This takes the hard sun off the sofa and still looks like a linen curtain.

How do I pick a size?
How do I pick a size?
Two measurements: the width of the opening and the drop. Catalogue sizes or made to the centimetre.
1
Width of the opening
Measure the window from edge to edge. Fit the pole 15 cm above and let it overrun 15–20 cm each side: the window reads larger and light still comes in. Order a curtain width 2 to 2.5 times the window: full folds dress the room and trap air, which helps soundproof and thermal insulation.
2
The drop
Measure from the top of the pole to the floor. Curtains should kiss the floor, or break 1–2 cm onto it. Stopping short makes the room feel smaller and lets draughts through.
2×
Recommended. Full folds, already a real barrier to noise and cold.
2.5×
Best. Maximum air pockets, soundproof and thermal insulation at their highest.
Exact-Fit Guarantee. A measurement error within 30 days and we remake the curtain. Order without guessing twice.
How does the 3-in-1 work?
How does the 3-in-1 work?
One curtain, three technical layers sewn together. Each has a measured job.
- The face cloth. A plain technical linen with the hang of a heavy curtain. It dresses the window. The technical layers stay out of sight.
- The blackout membrane. It blocks 100% of light and UV. You sleep in daylight, and furniture stops fading.
- The high-density technical back. It insulates up to 7°C: heat stays out in summer, in in winter, and the energy bill drops. It also takes the edge off outdoor noise, up to -22 dB: the street goes quiet.
Together the three layers reach 620 g/m². That weight is what hangs well and carries the three jobs.

No one sees you.
You keep the light.
By day, no one sees you, just like behind frosted glass.
The fabric lets through a soft, diffused brightness, around 30% of the light, without glare.
~30 %
Filtered light
The sun passes through, filtered and diffused. A soft brightness that lights the room without glare and softens the shadows. By day, no one can see in.
“We're on the ground floor facing the street. By day, no one can see in and the living room stays bright.”
Linen effect
Real material
The texture and colour of linen, without the creasing or the shrinking. An irregular weave that gives the window character.
“We wanted linen without the ironing. The look is genuinely linen, and the drape stays flawless.”
100% polyester
Zero hassle
It doesn't crease, doesn't shrink, and keeps a beautiful drape wash after wash. Machine wash
30°C, delicate cycle.
“Washed it twice already. Out of the machine, hung up, not a single crease.”

Why I bought it
I almost ordered the 3-in-1 for the sitting room because “blackout” sounded responsible. It would have killed the Haussmann light. This is the line for people who want daylight and privacy, not a cave.
Ground floor on a pavement: in the day it is soft, not grey. In the evening you see a glow, not the room. Neighbours opposite cannot read the sofa. Real linen elsewhere in the house creases and I will not iron a curtain. This has the slub and the dry hand, every day, without the weekend theatre.
South kitchen-diner: it stops the sun bouncing off the table without turning noon into dusk. I ordered the sample kit. Colour on screen was warmer than the cut. Fullness at 2×, pencil tape, custom drop on a tall sash that nothing in a catalogue would cover. Guests ask if it is linen. I say look, not fibre.
If you need dark for sleep, this is the wrong product. I nearly made that mistake. For a room you actually live in, this is why I paid for made-to-measure.

Elliot, thank you. Linen-look is daylight and privacy, not a blackout. The hang, the sample, then the panel: that is the product.
Sample kit first, always. Then the drop.
Daylight
I did not want a cave. I wanted daylight without people seeing in from the street. This linen-look filters, it does not black out. That is the point. Sitting room stays bright, silhouettes are gone. That is why I did not buy the 3-in-1 for this window.
Linen look
Real linen creases and I will not iron curtains. This has the slub and the dry hand without the maintenance. Hung, it reads as linen from the sofa. That was the reason: the look, every day, not at the weekend.
Privacy
Ground-floor window on a pavement. Privacy without killing the light. In the evening you see a glow, not the room. In the day it is soft, not grey. I measured for a full wave so it does not look skimpy.
Daylight
If you need dark for sleep, this is the wrong product. I almost ordered it for the bedroom. For the living room it is right: light, texture, made-to-measure drop on a tall Haussmann window. I took a star off for my own confusion, not the cloth.
Made to measure
I wanted the Haussmann fold, not a flat panel. Custom width at 2×, pencil tape. The linen-look takes the wave well. Neighbours opposite cannot see in. Light still comes. That combination is why this line exists.
Daylight
Kitchen-diner, south light. Blackout would have killed the room. These keep the sun from bouncing off the table without turning noon into dusk. Easy to live with. Colour is calmer than on screen. Order the sample kit.
Linen look
I have real linen elsewhere and it looks tired. This stays even. Same visual family, less theatre. Guests ask if it is linen. I say look, not fibre. That is enough.
Made to measure
Tall sash, nothing in the catalogue was long enough. Custom drop, grommets. Privacy from the garden, daylight in. I should have done made-to-measure years ago instead of a too-short linen that showed the sill.

Your questions.
Can you see through it?
Can you see through it?
In daylight, no. Light is diffused, like frosted glass. In the evening, with the lights on, silhouettes can show: pair it with a blackout if you want full privacy.
