David Browne - Director & Co-Founder of The Scottish Shutter Company and a Luxaflex Window Shading Expert
David Browne

David, along with his lovely wife June, started our wonderful family business nearly four decades ago. It’s been quite a journey from the humble beginnings of our small company to the thriving business we have today. Yet, what’s remained constant are the core values and exceptional service that David and June founded the business on.

David isn’t just the brains behind ensuring everything runs smoothly in the background; he’s also our go-to Project Director. He has a knack for working seamlessly with Architects, Interior Designers, and Developers, playing a pivotal role in planning the perfect shading systems for new homes.

With a background in engineering and a wizard in computer-aided design (CAD), David is the man behind the magic when it comes to your bespoke shutters and blinds. His expertise in CAD means that even the most unusually shaped windows are no match for his skillful design.

June Browne

June, together with her husband David, laid the foundation of our company back in 1987. It all started with The Fabric Shop on Dundee’s Perth Road, which soon became affectionately known as “Dundee’s Curtain Shop”. It wasn’t long before blinds and shutters became part of our story, responding to the incredible demand from our customers.

As shutters and blinds took center stage, the curtain side of the business gracefully bowed out. June has since retired from the day-to-day hustle and bustle of the business, choosing to spend her well-earned leisure time with her family. This includes doting on her grandchildren, Chloe and Olivia, spending quality time with Lottie, her Tibetan Terrier, and, of course, enjoying life with David, her husband of over fifty years.

June’s legacy continues to be a guiding light in our business, and her founding principles are still at the heart of everything we do.

 

 

 

David D'Ambrosio - Technical Director at The Scottish Shutter Company
David D'Ambrosio

David, Judith’s other half, is a driving force in propelling our business forward. Together, they’re taking the company to new heights with their dedication and expertise.

When you’re looking to get your shutters and blinds measured and designed, David is your man. He’s not just skilled in this area; he’s also one of the UK’s leading experts in window blind automation. His knowledge and experience are so renowned that he’s a key member of the management committee of our national association, The British Blind and Shutter Association (BBSA), where he currently serves as President. He’s the association’s go-to expert for all things related to shutters.

Outside of work, David has a passion for rugby and cars, and he’s recently rekindled his love for golf. This newfound enthusiasm is partly thanks to their new home, which conveniently sits next to the 18th fairway of the local golf club. So, when he’s not busy with shutters or serving the BBSA, you might find him perfecting his swing on the golf course.
