The Naked Truth About Bathroom Window Privacy (And Why You Need It)
Let’s be honest—nobody wants to give their neighbors a free show. But in Australia, where we love our natural light and open spaces, bathroom privacy can be a tricky thing. You want sunshine, but you also want to keep things… modest.
At A Style of Shade, we’ve seen it all. People using towels as makeshift curtains. Frosted glass that doesn’t quite do the job. Even someone who installed an actual shower curtain over their bathroom window (points for creativity, but we can do better).
Step One: Admit You Need Help
If your current window situation leaves you feeling exposed, you’re not alone. Privacy shouldn’t mean sacrificing light, and it definitely shouldn’t mean showering in total darkness.
That’s where Luxaflex window coverings come in—smart, stylish, and designed to keep your bathroom private without making it feel like a cave.
The Smartest Bathroom Privacy Solutions
1. The “I Want Light, But Not Peeping Toms” Fix: Luxaflex Duette® Shades
These clever honeycomb shades let you keep the bottom half closed while the top half stays open, meaning you get all the natural light without turning your bathroom into a stage. Bonus: They help keep your home cool in summer and warm in winter.
2. The “I Like Long Showers, Don’t Judge Me” Fix: PolySatin® Shutters
Moisture-proof, mold-resistant, and built to last. If your bathroom gets steamy enough to double as a sauna, these shutters won’t warp, crack, or peel. Plus, they look effortlessly stylish—unlike that old towel you’ve been using as a curtain.
3. The “I Love Luxury, But I Also Like My Privacy” Fix: Pirouette® Shadings
Soft, floating fabric vanes suspended between sheer layers? Sounds fancy because it is. These shades give you a dreamy, light-filled space while keeping things private during the day.
4. The “I Just Want Something Simple” Fix: Roller Blinds
Sometimes, you just want a no-fuss solution. Blockout or light-filtering roller blinds are sleek, effective, and available in motorized options—because pulling a cord is so last century.
