Timeless Elegance for Period Homes & Modern Living
Imagine a warm afternoon in Richmond, the sun filtering gently through crisp, wooden slats — light and shade dancing across your living room floor. That’s the beauty of plantation shutters by Shutters Design. More than a practical solution, they are a lifestyle choice, one that speaks of style, comfort, and lasting value.
Whether you live in a stately Georgian home on Richmond Green, a Victorian terrace near Kew Road, or a contemporary apartment along the river, our made-to-measure shutters bring out the best in your windows — and your entire home.
🌿 Why Choose Plantation Shutters in Richmond?
Richmond homes are celebrated for their character, tall sash windows, beautiful bay fronts, and intricate mouldings. But they also come with real-world needs:
-
Need privacy without losing natural light?
-
Want to reduce noise from Richmond Hill traffic or passing pedestrians?
-
Struggle with energy loss through large windows in winter?
Our bespoke shutters are more than window coverings. They’re handcrafted, fitted with precision, and designed to solve these issues while enhancing your interior design.
🎨 Crafted for Character – Designed to Match Every Richmond Interior
At Shutters Design, we understand that no two homes and no two windows are alike. That’s why we don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” solutions. Every shutter is made to order, using premium materials and expert craftsmanship, tailored to your space and lifestyle.
Popular styles among our Richmond clients include:
✔️ Bay Window Shutters
Perfect for classic front rooms, these enhance symmetry and highlight architectural features while improving insulation.
✔️ Tier-on-Tier Shutters
Great for homes that need flexibility — open the top for light, close the bottom for privacy.
✔️ Café Style Shutters
A favourite for street-facing properties. Keep privacy at eye-level while flooding the room with daylight.
✔️ Full-Height Plantation Shutters
Sleek and minimal, ideal for modern homes or larger windows where a clean look is desired.
