Our story
At Casa Velata we believe that the most beautiful spaces are the ones that breathe. Born from a vision of bringing timeless elegance to the outdoors our journey began with a simple idea: to transform every veranda, patio and pergola into a serene sanctuary. Inspired by the quiet grace of Mediterranean architecture and the tactile warmth of natural materials our curtains do more than shield—they reveal.
Each panel, track and tieback is designed as soft architecture for open‑air living. From the gentle drift of sheer fabric in the breeze to the filtered glow of sunlight on stone every detail speaks to a deeper sense of calm. We chose premium outdoor‑rated textiles and modular aluminium systems so that your space not only looks refined but endures sun wind and rain.
Casa Velata is more than a curtain brand. It is an invitation to slow down and savour the moments between walls and sky. We craft each product with purpose—marrying form and function so your home feels like a retreat every day. Welcome to an extraordinary balance of light texture and space. Welcome to Casa Velata.
About the Curtains
Surf Outdoor Curtains™ were developed by our team in Australia utilising decades of industry experience. We have created a proven system for our unique range of Sheer drapery fabric milled exclusively in the EU for Surf Outdoor Curtains™. Alfresco outdoor sheer fabric has undergone extensive testing in development and
comes with an assurance as it is specifically designed for drapery in outdoor areas.
What makes Surf Outdoor Curtains™ Alfresco Sheer fabric different?
We only use the finest of materials, including Gore Tenara, sewing threads, developed to last for the lifetime of the product even in the harshest of environments. Our solution dyed polyester yarn has a coloured polymer at the core of every fibre. This extensive process is undertaken before the yarn is even spun and ensures our finished fabric is luxurious, soft to the touch, and as colourfast for fade resistance as any other drapery sheer available.
Alfresco drapery sheer fabric is also machine washable.A zippered wash bag is included in every pack. Follow the easy-to-follow instructions to protect and maintain your Surf Outdoor Curtains™.

Flame Retardancy
There is a popular misconception that flame retardant fabrics shouldn’t burn. Treated fabrics will still burn, however they slow down the flame speed. Flame retardants are designed to reduce ignitability, spread of flame, heat evolved, and the amount of smoke developed from a fabric when it is exposed to a fire hazard. Flame retarding is designed to affect many factors including the amount of smoke & toxic gas produced. These factors are measured by the Australian Standards procedure.
