Explore Trendy Roman Blinds in Singapore

Unlike roller or vertical blinds, Roman blinds are constructed with fabric panels that fold evenly when lifted. This gives them a structured yet soft appearance that adds warmth and texture to a room. They offer a more decorative finish compared to simpler blinds, with the folds adding a subtle design element even when the blind is open. Roman blinds can be made with a variety of fabrics—from light, sheer materials to heavy blackout textiles—making them incredibly versatile for different rooms and functions.

Yes, Roman blinds are an excellent fit for Singapore homes. They’re particularly well-suited for bedrooms, living areas, and study rooms where you want a cosy, comfortable ambiance without compromising on light control. Given the tropical heat, roman blinds can also be fitted with blackout linings to help reduce heat penetration and enhance privacy, making them both stylish and practical for the local climate.

Roman blinds can be crafted from a wide range of fabrics depending on the desired look and function. For a light and airy effect, linen or cotton blends are commonly used. For a more opulent feel, heavier fabrics like velvet or jacquard can be selected. You can also opt for light-filtering, dim-out, or blackout linings to control brightness and insulation. At Fabrik Etc, we offer a curated selection of fabrics tailored to Singapore’s climate and interior trends.

Yes, Roman blinds can be designed to block out sunlight effectively. If full darkness is needed—such as in bedrooms or media rooms—blackout-lined Roman blinds are ideal. For areas where soft, filtered light is preferred, unlined or light-filtering fabrics allow natural brightness to pass through while still providing privacy. This makes Roman blinds a flexible option depending on your specific needs.

Roman blinds require a bit more care than basic blinds, but they are still relatively easy to maintain. Regular vacuuming with a brush attachment helps to remove dust and debris. Spot cleaning can be done for most fabrics, though delicate or premium materials may benefit from professional cleaning. Over time, the top Velcro of roman blinds may wear out, and may need replacement after a few washes. At Fabrik Etc, we guide our customers in choosing fabrics that balance beauty with ease of care.

Yes, Roman blinds can be motorised for greater convenience and safety, especially in homes with young children or pets. Motorised Roman blinds can be operated with a remote control or integrated into your smart home system. This option is particularly useful for larger blinds or windows that are hard to reach. Despite their soft and elegant appearance, Roman blinds are highly compatible with modern automation technology.

When installed correctly, Roman blinds are safe for homes with children. Motorised, cordless lift systems are the safest options available. At Fabrik Etc, we follow child safety regulations and can recommend the best operating mechanism for families with young children.

There are several Roman blind styles to choose from, including flat and Austrian pleat styles. Flat Roman blinds provide a clean, modern look with horizontal seams. The Austrian pleats feature gentle cascading folds for a more decorative and traditional appearance. We help our clients select a style that complements their interior design and practical needs.

The price of Roman blinds depends on the size, fabric choice, lining, and operating mechanism (manual or motorised). Generally, they fall in the mid- to premium price range due to the craftsmanship and fabric involved. At Fabrik Etc, we offer transparent pricing and personalised consultations to help you choose the right Roman blinds for your space, budget, and lifestyle.
