Fairleigh House - External Venetians & Home Theatre Curtains

Fairleigh House – External Venetians & Home Theatre Curtains
External Venetians on a modern façade, such as at Fairleigh House, offer a sophisticated architectural finish while significantly improving energy efficiency and indoor comfort. The 80mm curved aluminium blades provide optimal control over light and privacy — allowing natural light and views when open, and excellent shading when closed. Blades are adjustable and can be operated remotely for ease of use.
Designed for large openings, these External Venetians are available in widths up to 5500mm and drops up to 5000mm. With early design planning, the stacking system can be fully recessed into a custom hood box, allowing for a clean, integrated finish that complements contemporary architecture.
Inside the home, luxury continues with a bespoke home theatre curtain installation. These curtains do more than elevate the look of the cinema space — they also contribute to enhanced acoustic performance, improving the overall sound quality of the theatre experience. We specify premium acoustic fabrics from trusted suppliers such as Basford Brands to deliver a refined, high-performance finish.

SOM Blinds deliver custom-designed motorised blind and window furnishing solutions.
Our designers work together with you to ensure results that combine style with function and are made to last.
While our design team will make sure your home or project will look beautiful we will also work with you to make sure your home is more comfortable to live in, maximising energy efficiency and reducing reliance on mechanical heating and cooling.
Sustainability is important to us and many of our clients and we achieve this by supplying appropriate, quality window furnishings that will stand the test of time. We like to think we're providing our clients with classic pieces and not fast fashion.
SOM Blinds came about in 2002 and has become an industry leader in Melbourne manufacturing and supplying automated blinds and window furnishings.
Our unique SOM60 Motorised Blind System was developed by founder Bernie Sombekke and an electrician friend who was an early supplier of home automation.
He was looking for a window furnishing supplier who would not just supply products but was willing to provide his clients with great service with the knowledge and ability to back this up with expert technical support as well.
At SOM Blinds we have always had a huge focus on providing a level of service that keeps our clients recommending us and it works.
We source the very best window furnishing products from suppliers in Australia and internationally to compliment our blind range.
We don’t offer a limited range as we want to make sure we supply the very best solution for your home or project. The same with fabrics we don’t limit the supplier’s whose ranges you can select from. We have access to all of the fabric wholesalers so we will help you find the perfect fabric for your home or project.
What makes SOM Blinds different? The SOM Blinds team, they consult, advise, design, measure, source and install. We spend time getting to know you and your team. We work together to come up with the results your home or project deserves.
SOM Blinds is a local family operated business and we love what we do.
