Interesting stuff! Thanks for posting - great to read.

I intend to try some things out in my room soon, also one which I have a bit of a free rein on. My intention is to make sure it looks/feels good (I'm an interior designer) and for any acoustic treatments to be 'invisible' in a way - designed into the room somehow so they're not readily apparent.

Anyway, Vescom have acoustic fabrics. IIRC their rep told me that they allow the sound through the fabric, then absorb it on the reverse as it reflects back off the surface behind it. I can't remember if it's available in blinds - I'll dig out the info...
