Hunter Douglas Commercial introduces Seychelles Fabric with tonal backing.
October 11th, 2010
The new Hunter Douglas Commercial Seychelles Fabric is one of the most opulent fabrics available on the market today.
It has a tonal background which can be matched to the external facade of your building for a completely uniform look inside and out.
This new, top-of-the-range blockout fabric has been manufactured in Australia using iridescent and organic yarns, to create a luxuriously soft and shimmering fabric to complement modern buildings and current interior design trends.
The tonal backing also means that where the reverse of your blind becomes visible, for example in Roller Blind applications, no more stark white fabric will be revealed – allowing the blind to perfectly complement the exterior facade as well as the interior design.
The new tonal backing has been especially co-ordinated for each of the six colours – Essence, Angora, Champagne, Empire, Willow and Drizzle.
With functionality top of mind, Seychelles Fabric has been treated with Sanitized® Antimicrobial Protection which effectively reduces the development of bacteria, odour and mildew.
Additionally, it has also been treated with DURAGUARD® Fabric Protector which effectively repels most stain causing agents with its proven, water based, preventative, formula.

Sydney’s newest celebration, Smart Light Sydney, is currently calling for expressions of interest from artists and designers from around the country and region to create “smart light and sound installation” for the evnt to be held from 26 May – 14 June 2009.
The event will form part of the newly created Vivid Sydney festival – aimed at delivering a focus on light and sound during the city’s winter.
“Vivid Sydney will transform the city into a unique living canvas of music and light with the Opera House, the Rocks and Circular Quay as its focus,” say the organizers.
Artists are invited to submit their EOI to contribute installation for the Smart Light Sydney ‘Light Walk’ along the CBD foreshore, taking in Observatory Hill, the MCA and Customs House. Submissions can include pavement, wall, façade and foyer treatments.
“We’re looking for artists who are using digital technologies to provide creative solutions in urban design and light, as well as for installations which are stimulating and engaging for the public,” says Smart Light Sydney Founder and Festival Director Mary-Anne Kyriakou.
“Smart Light Sydney will play an important role in demonstrating the potential for low energy lighting to Australian and international audiences through unique and creative displays.”
