An overview of Royal Connaught Park
Built a century ago, designed originally by Victorian architects, what once was The Royal Masonic School for Boys, is today the Royal Connaught Park. The buildings are remarkable from an architectural and landscaping standpoint, winner of multiple awards and set in a beautiful natural landscape, the area covers 100 acres of parkland.
The location has hosted hundreds of popular films, such as Harry Potter, and of TV series. Nowadays it is a residential development with converted and newly-built apartments.

The second room is upstairs and on the front of the house, so we can see the sloping roof on the left, which leaves a small window on the right hand side. On it we installed a sheer Roller blind and a blackout Roman blind, both manually operated.

Kitchen and dining room
The luxurious kitchen features a mini bar, a dining table and is merged on the right with the kitchen. The handmade blackout curtain covers the sliding doors leading to the garden on the back of the house. Under them are two sheer Roller blinds. Both are electrically controlled with the wall switch below. The kitchen window is covered with a sheer, hand operated Roller blind and a blackout Roman blind.

TV lounge
The TV lounge features two entrances, one connecting to the main entrance and the other connected to the dining room. For the best light control, we installed blackout curtains with a sheer Roller blind behind. The curtain track is fully flushed with the walls, ensuring complete darkness. Both are electrically operated with a wall switch.
