What Are Aria™ Fabric Blinds?

Aria™ Fabric Blinds combine the softness of drapery with the clean lines of horizontal blinds. Their unique fabric vanes gently filter sunlight, creating a soft, even glow while maintaining a clear exterior view when open. A smooth tilt bar lets you easily adjust light and privacy without lifting the blind or twisting a wand. The vanes close securely to provide effective privacy and light control whenever needed.

What We Offer

At Custom Shades, we offer Aria™ Fabric Blinds in a selection of luxurious textures and neutral tones that complement a wide range of interiors. These blinds are especially well-suited for large windows and come with optional enhancements like a dual-opacity feature for both light dimming and room darkening. Aria™ delivers a refined, modern look with practical functionality, making it a beautiful and versatile choice for any room.

Key Features & Enhancements

What comes standard, and the upgrades you can add when you order.

  • Style Choices: luxurious, textured fabrics in neutral colours.
  • Fits Extra Large Windows: perfect for dramatically large windows.
  • Easy To Use: adjust vanes with an innovative new tilt bar, no twisting necessary.
  • Complete View to the Outdoors: without lifting the blind.
  • Light Control and Privacy: Superior closure with a tilt of the vanes.

 

Optional Enhancements

“
Working with Custom Shades of London was a very easy experience. Vanessa Vitta
was professional and knowledgeable as to what I required, and answered all my questions.
She was great. Ben, the installer, also very professional, and did the installation on time
and also did a great job. I would highly recommend them both, as well as Custom Shades
of London.

We are super happy with our experience at Custom Shades. Vanessa, particularly, was excellent to work with. We really appreciated their willingness to bring product samples to our house, so we could be confident about our purchase. It's a big investment to redo blinds on an entire floor.

I have Hunter Douglas power honey comb blinds that I bought10 years ago. The store went out of business. When the clip and battery holder broke Custom Shades were so helpful. They gave me the clip and the batery holder to replace the old ones. Ben was super helpful as was Patty. Customer service was absolutely amazing. Strongly recommend the for shades and shutters

The best customer service in London!

The store is beautifully laid out, clean and organized. Patty and Sydney went completely out of their way to help me with a couple of used blinds I had.

The merchandise is first class! If you want to be tested with kindness, respect and interest, this is your store!

Discover the Elegance of Aria Fabric Blinds

Aria fabric blinds offer a unique blend of softness and light diffusion, creating a beautiful, gentle glow in any room. These window treatments are crafted from a lightweight yet durable fabric, designed to filter sunlight while maintaining a sense of privacy.

Experience the subtle beauty and functional benefits of aria fabric blinds, a perfect choice for enhancing the ambiance of your home with understated sophistication.

Exploring the Benefits of Aria Fabric Blinds

The unique construction of aria fabric blinds allows them to offer a delicate balance between light control and privacy. Unlike traditional blinds, the soft fabric vanes appear to float between two layers of sheer fabric, providing a diffused glow that enhances any room’s atmosphere. This design makes them an excellent choice for living rooms, bedrooms, or any space where a serene ambiance is desired. For other light-filtering options, see our sheer shades, including Silhouette® Window Shadings.

When considering window treatments, energy efficiency is often a key factor. Aria fabric blinds contribute to this by helping to insulate your windows, reducing heat transfer and potentially lowering energy costs. Explore more options for keeping your home comfortable and cost-effective by looking into energy efficient window coverings. If you’re curious about the cost of premium window treatments like these, a free in-home consultation gets you an exact quote.

Maintaining the beauty of your aria fabric blinds is straightforward. Regular dusting with a soft cloth or a vacuum cleaner attachment will keep them looking their best. For repairs or deeper care, our service team can help. When planning for unique window shapes, we’ll help you find a perfect fit and optimal function.
