At Taylor & Stirling, we offer a tremendous variety of fabrics, patterns, colours and finishes to help you transform any room into a personal statement.
Your goal may be classical, contemporary or simply cozy — we can provide that and so much more.
🔊 Why Choose Custom Curtains?
Curtains offer more than aesthetic appeal. They help ensure:
- Pleasing acoustics and noise reduction
- Privacy
- Partial or complete blockage of light
- Insulation from heat and cold drafts
🪟 Curtain Styles
Below is your full curtain range, rewritten cleanly but preserving all original content.
🧵 Pencil Pleat Curtains & Reverse Pleat Curtains
Pencil pleat curtains are the most popular type of curtain we install. They complement traditional or contemporary decors and are easily identifiable by the scrunched material neatly attached to a track.
We also offer matching bedding, wallpapers and sheer curtains to continue a theme throughout your home.
🟠 Eyelet Curtains
Eyelet curtains have become increasingly popular thanks to their simple yet stylish design. Characterised by circular holes in the header, they glide smoothly along the rod.
Choose from:
- Cream calming tones
- Duck egg blue
- Fuchsia, pink or lime green for bold statements
- Check, floral and striped curtains for timeless appeal
🔽 Stackless Reverse Pleat Curtain (Evopleat)
The Stackless Reverse Pleat Curtain System is perfect for window treatments requiring minimal stack back.
Ideal when:
- Wall space is limited
- Multiple windows sit close together
- You want the curtain to stack completely off the glass
This system offers the smallest stackback available and works with cord‑drawn or hand‑drawn tracks using Stayput runners.
🌊 S‑Fold / Wave Curtains
A contemporary curtain style used widely in modern homes, often paired with roller blinds or sheers.
Available in:
- 54mm tape which is 100% fullness
- 60mm tape which is 80% fullness
- 80mm tape exclusive to Taylor and Stirling we do 100% fullness, however the stack sizes is significantly smaller that running 54 or 60mm tape
Fullness affects wave size and stackback — we calculate this precisely for your window.

- Children’s rooms
