— Chris + Hannah, Homeowners, Belrose

We had been referred to SHADES BY vassileff by a previous customer who spoke glowingly of Darren’s service. Having moved to a large beachside apartment we required blinds, curtains and plantation shutters.

The quality of the products is “top shelf” and the whole process from initial consultation to final installation was smooth and timely and completed with care and precision.

“

—  Therese + Jim, Homeowners, Collaroy

Working with Darren was an absolute pleasure from the initial consultation through to installation. He really listened to what we wanted and took the time to understand both our style and how we use our home. His creative design advice was invaluable and gave us confidence in our choices without ever feeling like we were being steered in one direction.
