Preparing the room
See It in the Room Before You Choose
Draw a curtain, lower a blind, lay a rug, paper a wall — in a Goan room, from morning light to lamps at night. Free, no sign-up, built from what we see in homes across Goa.
Curtains
Sheer, linen, lined, blackout and layered — in a Goan room, from morning to night.
Hang five curtain fabrics in a Goan room, draw them, and follow the light from morning to night.
Open the simulator
Close a sheer at midday, then again at night, and see why privacy reverses after dark.
Open the simulator
Watch unlined linen light up with the sun, then see what shows through it at night.
Open the simulatorSwitch between an unlined and a lined curtain and see what the extra layer changes.
Open the simulator
Close a blackout curtain at midday and see why a dark room depends on the pole as much as the fabric.
Open the simulator
Draw the blackout back and leave the sheer in place — two curtains on one double track.
Open the simulatorBlinds
Roller, zebra, roman, wooden, vertical and chik — raised, lowered and tilted.
Six kinds of blind on one arched window. Raise, tilt and change the hour to see how each behaves.
Open the simulator
Slide the sheer and solid bands into line, then apart, and watch the light change.
Open the simulator
Lower a light-filtering roller, then switch to night and see how private it really is.

Open the simulatorRoom planners
Rug sizes, wallpaper rolls, sofa fabric, mosquito nets and curtain rods.
Set the room and the furniture, and see which standard rug size fits with floor to spare.
Open the simulator
Add each wall and the pattern repeat, and count the rolls the way a paperhanger does.
Open the simulator
Answer three questions — who, where, how often — and see the sofa re-covered in the fabric that suits.
Open the simulator
Pick the opening, slide the screen open and closed, and see which system, mesh and frame suit it.
Open the simulator
Set the window and the curtain, and see how far the rod should run past the glass.
Open the simulatorCalculators
Two more tools for the numbers: the curtain fabric calculator for metres of fabric, and the coastal fabric advisor for what survives salt air and the monsoon.
The simulator narrows it. The samples decide it.
We bring real fabrics to the house, hold them to your light at the hour you care about, and measure every window.
