7 Window Treatment Trends for 2021

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean (Hawkes Bay Chem-Dry)

Wondering what the new year holds in store for interiors? Here are some of the window treatment trends we’ll be keeping an eye on in 2021.

Warm neutrals: More than ever after 2020, we’re looking at our homes as tranquil retreats from a chaotic world. Calming, neutral tones take the lead - and although greys and whites continue to be popular, interior palettes are warming up. For contemporary neutrals consider colours like cream, oatmeal, sand and taupe.

Fear not though - neutrals don’t have to mean boring! Play on light and dark variations, subtle patterns and layering textures to keep things interesting.

Maximalism: In complete contrast to calming neutrals, maximalism is all about embracing clashing patterns, saturated colours and dynamic interior combinations.


Forget “less is more” - be bold and bring a little fun into your home this year!


Smart technology: Open and close your window treatments at the touch of a button with a remote or mobile app - or add them to your home automation system. Motorisation is taking off in Kiwi homes and curtains and blinds are no exception.

With an app you can pre-set your window treatments to open or close on a timer or do it instantly from your phone - even when you’re not at home.

Jolene-Ann Erasmus Hi guys, our tiny minature pincher has gotten out of our new home in Hinton rd, Taradale while we were at work. Please let me know if you may have seen her, she is my baby! She is wearing a thick black citronella spray collar to prevent her from barking. She is a very nervous little girl so she may be hiding in someone’s garden 😢 please call me on 0273419450 😢😢
