Hairpin House
Project Name: Hairpin House
Builder: Ridgeback
Product: Roller Blinds
Hairpin House is a 237 apartment BTR in Birmingham completed in 2023. It was built by Ridgeback and took inspiration from the site’s historic home to Kirby Beard & Co, which famously invented the Kirbigrip hairpin.
Project Furniture Residential were awarded for furniture packages for the project and they selected Bartell Cottage Furnishings to work alongside them to provide window coverings. We manufactured and installed our Triton roller blinds to all living areas and bedrooms in each of the apartments. Blackout fabrics were selected for the bedrooms to reduce light pollution at night whilst dimout fabrics allow some light to filter through to the lounges whilst also providing privacy.
By working with Project Furniture Residential, we ensured the residents of Hairpin House had beautifully furnished properties ready to move in to.
