Unislats blinds, often called Smart Curtains or Korean Smart blinds, are a popular hybrid window covering that combines a soft sheer layer with a blackout layer on a single vane. The blinds are made up of many vanes hanging on a track, which can be rotated or tilted, or drawn to one side like a vertical blind, to adjust the amount of light entering the house or room. This design also encourages air circulation, reducing the need for air-con — especially useful in humid tropical weather like Singapore’s.

Although they work like vertical blinds, they look totally different. The soft fabric with its S-fold wave completely changes the outlook of an interior, without the linking chain at the bottom that vertical blinds have — and that alone makes a big difference in look.

Why Choose Unislats for Japandi & Warm Minimalist Homes?

With Japandi and Warm Minimalism being the most sought-after interior design themes in Singapore this year, the gentle fold of the Unislats vanes softens the sharp, straight-lined carpentry commonly seen in Japandi-themed homes. The continuous, uninterrupted look of the vanes combined is another value-add for these themes. For Warm Minimalism, the continuous vertical rhythm of the Unislats makes an HDB or condo ceiling feel higher and layouts cleaner — especially useful with newer flats getting shorter. The elimination of messy cords, replaced with a wand, is also a plus for the theme.

Starting from $12 per square foot, Unislats can completely change the look of your home at a reasonable price.

What’s special about them is that you can walk right through the individual slats without needing to draw them to the side. This works perfectly with big glass sliding doors, commonly seen in landed properties and condominiums in Singapore, where you can walk straight through to your balcony. Because of this versatility, they can also be used as a room divider.

For those into smart systems or automation, we do offer an option to motorized them. The advantage of a motorized system is that you can adjust the angles slightly with the press of a button instead of using a wand — giving a cleaner look without the wand hanging off the track. You can also integrate the blinds into your existing smart home system, allowing you to control them via an app on your phone from anywhere, while maintaining energy efficiency in the house. If your windows or sliding doors are wide, motorized tracks will greatly reduce the effort and hassle of moving them to the side.
