O N O U R T R A V E L S

We love the combination of textures used throughout the property; from the cooling polished concrete floor, to the bespoke designed rugs and the soft Fox Linton silk wool used for the curtains.
The curtains here stack back neatly together in the corner; drawing out to cover the full height glazing when required, whilst ensuring they don't obscure the beautiful view when open. If you look really closely you might be able to spot the Roller blinds too!

What a view and what a property!
This beautiful villa in the south of France was a pleasure to work on, looking back at the pictures we think it still looks just as stunning.
Like so many of the projects we work on, the desire for concealment was high on the client's agenda on this project. On this project we achieved this using recessed automated Silent Gliss Roller blinds and curtain tracks. The curtain tracks were recessed into the ceiling allowing the curtains to drop full height in all rooms almost giving the appearance of floating!

O N O U R T R A V E L S

Whilst we all can't travel at the moment, here's a virtual trip over to the south of France, with a look back at a project we completed a couple of years ago alongside Studio28 Interiors.

Here in the main Living area, the elegant neutral palette makes for a truly inviting space. Automated dual window treatments were the order of the day, allowing the client full control over natural light. With the south of France lucky enough to enjoy glorious weather a majority of the year, being able to maintain comfortable light and heat levels within the property is key!

In this final image, we’ve shown the Palladiom blinds in the fully open position. Whilst surface mounted Roller blinds have been somewhat shunned for the past decade, in the desire to conceal as much as possible; these systems really do dress the windows in all positions whether open or closed. The sleek and functional design enhances the interior without detracting providing a subtle elegant finish.
Whilst the brackets and hem bars on the Palladiom systems are to be shown off, the cabling isn’t! And in this image is the proof. The wiring for Palladiom shades is completely concealed within the brackets as indeed are the local control and programming buttons.
Each of the Palladiom brackets include a finishing ring in a matching finish to conceal the bracket-shade interface. A quick twist and the limit setting buttons are revealed for any tweaks required during the installation

P A L L A D I O M

Palladiom Roller blinds feature all the renowned benefits that come as standard with Lutron: long term warranty, IHA and super quiet operation. In fact, the Palladiom blinds are even quieter than standard QS with a measurement of 35 dBA (measured at 90cm from the motor), whisper quiet!

In this image the Palladiom shades are shown at the preset midway position. As with all Lutron QS powered Roller blinds, Palladioms benefit from IHA. This is Intelligent Hembar Alignment - meaning that all shades move in unison, maintaining alignment within 3mm at all times, whether stopped or moving

Here are a selection of images showcasing Lutron Palladiom Roller blinds we installed last year.
This beautiful Orangery setting provides the perfect environment for Palladiom shades. The Satin Nickel finish used picks up on the ornamental details throughout, bringing the whole scheme together.
The 5% screen fabric selected allows a harmonious balance between providing protection from light and UV, a particular concern of the client for their artwork, whilst maintaining a view to the outdoor space.

Screen fabrics are available in a variety of openness factors, with 5% providing optimum transparency and control of natural light. This openness factor also provides a good level of glare control with up to 93% of light rays filtered. Shown here in the down position at just before dusk, the Roller blinds provide those inside a view outwards towards the garden whilst maintaining privacy from anyone looking in from the outside.

P A L L A D I O M

As seen here the Palladiom bottom rail has been cleverly designed and shaped to sit in the negative space behind the fabric roll when in the open position. However, we at Ace do in fact prefer leaving the limit set down slightly so that the hem bar can be seen at all times.

At only 10mm in height the Palladiom bottom rail is super sleek, providing an extremely minimal and elegant aesthetic. Each Palladiom bottom rail is made from extruded aluminium with much of the manufacturing and finishing process done by hand.

The finish in this image is Satin Nickel (brushed plated aluminium) and is one of the four finishes available on the Palladiom bottom rail: •Satin Nickel
•Pure White
•Clear Anodised
•Black Anodised

In our next couple of posts you’ll be able to see the Satin Nickel ‘in action’ on one of our installations - check back tomorrow to take a look

P A L L A D I O M

Here we’ve shown the second hem bar offering from the Palladiom range, fabric wrapped with exposed end caps. The end caps are available to match all the Palladiom shade bracket finishes: •Opal White
•Pure White
•Black Anodised
•Clear Anodised
•Brass
•Satin Nickel
•Satin Graphite

Again here we’ve shown the Palladiom centre bracket but there are a further two bracket types, ensuring a seamless installation no matter what the shade install location.
The end bracket, this is ideal for mounting on or above a window frame as it can be either top or face fixed. This bracket style really shows off each of its hand finished surfaces. Beautiful and functional - what’s not to love!

Also available is the jamb bracket; whilst it’s the simplest in form of the three, it’s no less functional or aesthetically pleasing. The jamb bracket has been designed to sit neatly inside a window reveal, the circular geometry used extends the roller tube outwards and into the wall giving the appearance of the shade floating in mid air

P A L L A D I O M

Lutron’s latest development in high end Roller blinds, Palladiom, there’s more than meets the eye.
First off, let’s start with the brackets and hem bars. As shown here, they are designed to be seen! We’ve spent the past decade or so concealing Roller blinds as much as possible so it’s been really refreshing for us to show these off on some of our installations.

The hem bars are available in two options: the Palladiom bottom rail (as showcased here) and fabric wrapped with exposed coordinating end caps (see our next post for an image). Both hem bar types are available in a number of finishes to coordinate with the Palladiom brackets.
Also showcased here is one of the three Palladiom bracket types, the centre bracket. This bracket has been designed to support two adjacent shades on a single bracket whilst maintaining the clean aesthetic of the Palladiom range
