What makes Adelaide unique?
Adelaide is the capital with the best of both worlds: all the conveniences of a large city, with all the enchantment of a small town. It exquisitely blends charming historic buildings and wide leafy streets with groovy shops, stylish architecture and cultural innovation. It’s truly a city of visual harmony and classical, elegant style.
The 20 minute city
Adelaide is a picturesque city, superbly set beside the River Torrens. The city centre is surrounded by parklands, and the streets are pleasantly tree-lined. Adelaide is an ideal city to get to know by foot. Known as the “20 minute city”, you can experience most of it on a series of short, easy walks.
As you wander the streets, notice how window furnishings are used splendidly to both highlight the architectural styles of the buildings and homes and also to sensibly shade them from external elements. Roman Blinds, Shutters, Venetian Blinds, Cedar and Timber Blinds are all used for visual emphasis and practicality.
Charming and elegant
Wide sweeping streets, enchanting architecture, city squares and lush green boundaries are simply the beginning of Adelaide’s charm. Bordered by wine country, elegant estates and manors sit on the outskirts of the city, while classically historic home-styles dominate the suburbs. Newer, more modern housing developments are now being built to cater to the growing population, but the general atmosphere is still one steeped in historical elegance.
From small settlers’ cottages through to Queen Anne homes, art deco residences, classic bungalows and uniquely Australian Boomerang houses, window furnishings are chosen to complement the distinct architectural styles. Roman Blinds, Venetian Blinds, Shutters, Cedar Blinds and even Bamboo Blinds are all fitting in the variety of home and building styles in Adelaide.
Dry, dusty days
Adelaide has a Mediterranean climate, in which most of the rain falls in the winter months. But even with the winter rainfalls, it’s the driest of Australia’s capitals. Heat waves can hit hard in the summer months, and with the lack of humidity, dusty conditions arise.
You need to be prepared for the hot, parched conditions by making sure your window furnishings block out the elements. Roller Blinds are popular, often bundled with other window coverings like Roman Blinds to blend practicality with architecturally matched style.
