Instead of sitting on the window, the fabric drops from a slim slot cut into the ceiling or a bulkhead recess, with every bracket, tube and bracket arm hidden above the line. Raised, the window is completely clean — glass, frame, and nothing else competing with the view. It's the detail architects specify when a room is meant to read as pure glass and light.
Recess depth depends on the system and the blind type — a roller typically wants somewhere in the region of 110–150mm above the ceiling line, but we confirm the exact figure for your chosen system at quote stage rather than guess on site. Retrofit is possible too, using a surface-mounted bulkhead or a slim cassette pelmet colour-matched to the ceiling, which gets close to the same clean line in a home that's already finished.
