Our Story

About Venetian Blinds AU

We're a team of home improvement enthusiasts dedicated to helping Australian homeowners make informed decisions about window treatments.

Our Mission

Venetian Blinds AU was founded with a simple but important mission: to be the most trusted and comprehensive resource for window treatment information in Australia. We noticed that while there were plenty of places to buy blinds, there was a lack of genuinely helpful, unbiased information to guide homeowners through the selection process.

Our journey began in late 2024 when our founding team—experienced in interior design, home improvement, and DIY installation—came together with a shared frustration. We had all encountered the same problem: finding reliable, detailed information about venetian blinds that wasn't just thinly-veiled product promotion. We wanted to create something different.

What Sets Us Apart

We take a hands-on approach to everything we publish. Our team has collectively installed hundreds of blinds across Australian homes, from compact Sydney apartments to sprawling Queensland properties. We understand the unique challenges of Australian conditions—the intense UV exposure that can fade and damage inferior products, the humidity variations from tropical Darwin to temperate Melbourne, and the practical needs of busy Australian families.

Every guide we publish draws on real-world experience. When we write about measuring windows for blinds, it's based on techniques refined over thousands of installations. When we discuss which materials work best in bathrooms, we've seen first-hand what happens when the wrong choice meets Australian humidity. This practical foundation ensures our advice is genuinely useful, not just theoretical.

Our Approach to Recommendations

When we recommend products, we do so based on quality, value, and suitability for Australian conditions. We participate in the Amazon Associates program, which means we may earn a small commission when you purchase through our links. However, this never influences our recommendations—we feature products we would genuinely recommend to friends and family.

We believe in transparency. If a product has weaknesses, we'll tell you. If a cheaper option performs just as well as a premium alternative, we'll let you know. Our goal is to help you make the right choice for your specific situation, not to push you toward the most expensive option.

Looking Forward

As we move through 2026, we're committed to expanding our library of resources. We're working on detailed video guides, regional installation contractor recommendations, and even more in-depth material comparisons. We also love hearing from our readers—your questions often inspire our next articles, and your feedback helps us improve.

Thank you for trusting Venetian Blinds AU as your resource. Whether you're installing your first blinds or upgrading throughout your home, we're here to help you every step of the way.
