Café Style Shutters: Parisian Privacy & Light
Did you know?
Café style shutters originated in the bustling cafés of Paris, where they provided privacy for patrons while letting in the city's beautiful daylight.
Why Choose Café Style Shutters?
Café style shutters are the perfect blend of privacy and light. Covering only the lower half of your window, they let you enjoy daylight while keeping prying eyes out—ideal for street-facing rooms and open-plan living.
Their timeless look, inspired by Parisian cafés, adds instant kerb appeal and a sense of continental style to any space. Choose from a range of finishes and materials for a bespoke fit.
- Privacy & LightCafé style shutters cover only the lower half of your window, giving you privacy from the street while letting natural light flood in from above.

Tilt Options: Clearview vs Centre Rod
Clearview Tilt
The Clearview tilt option features a hidden mechanism, so there’s no visible rod on the front of the shutter. This creates a clean, modern look and makes cleaning easy.
- Minimalist appearance
- Unobstructed view
- Easy to clean
Centre Rod Tilt
The Centre Rod tilt option uses a visible rod down the centre of each panel to move the louvres. This traditional style is easy to operate and adds a classic touch.
