Blinds & motorised screens for Illovo
South of Sandown along the Oxford Road corridor, Illovo mixes secure clusters with some of the area's most striking luxury apartment blocks — big glass, considered finishes, and a view worth protecting.
What homes in Illovo are like
Illovo runs along the Oxford Road office and retail corridor, with residential pockets of secure clusters and high-end apartment developments sharing Sandown's glazed, high-density feel. Many blocks are recent builds with architect-specified finishes, where the blind is part of the overall look rather than an afterthought bolted on once the unit's finished.
Which products suit Illovo
- Concealed / recessed blinds — for architect-finished units wanting no visible box interrupting the ceiling line.
- Day/night blinds — the same privacy-with-view brief that comes up throughout the precinct.
- Motorised blinds — for the wide glass typical of newer blocks, and for units several floors up where hand-winding a wide blind daily gets old fast.
- Roller blinds — cost-effective coverage at scale, useful where a development is fitting out multiple similar units at once.
Where a scheme's finishes were architect-specified, we work from what's already there — recess depths, cassette allowances, colour palettes — rather than fitting something generic over the top.
Illovo shares Sandown’s glazed, high-density character, so the same sun and privacy reasoning applies — the manual walks through it elevation by elevation. Read the Sandown manual — it is free and ungated.
