What a venetian blinds costs in Melbourne
Melbourne's large stock of Victorian and Edwardian homes has tall, elegant sash windows that suit the look of a timber or basswood venetian, and that period-appropriate slat is a dearer choice than plain aluminium, so a lot of local demand sits at the warmer end. The cold winters also make venetians a genuine heat-and-light control choice rather than purely decorative.
There are usually many windows per home in the inner and middle suburbs, and venetians priced per window add up across a whole house, though Melbourne's deep, competitive blind market keeps a standard aluminium fit-out keenly priced. The temperate climate is kind to timber slats in most rooms, so real basswood holds up well away from wet areas, which is less true in the humid northern capitals.
