Projects

The right window coverings enhance your home’s style, comfort, and energy efficiency. A design consultant can help you choose the best options based on your needs.

How will the space be used? For working, relaxation, or entertaining? Formal or informal? This will help define the ideal design style for your window treatments.

Managing Glare from Screens

Will you be working with electronic screens in the room, including television, computer monitors, or other devices that are sensitive to glare?

Child & Pet Safety Considerations

Are there children or pets in your home? If so, look for window coverings with safety features (such as motorized lift and cordless lift), in materials that are easy to clean and maintain.​

Privacy Matters

Is privacy a concern? This is a key consideration for bedrooms and bathrooms. The options range from complete privacy with blackout shades to light filtering sheers.

Managing Sunlight and Heat

What is your window exposure? If your windows have a southern or western exposure, the room could fluctuate greatly in temperature. Direct sunlight can also bleach textiles unevenly.

Adjustable Blinds for Perfect Lighting

How much light control do you need for maximum shading at your fingertips, consider horizontal or vertical blinds. You can easily redirect the light or change the complexion of a room by rotating or tilting the slats or louvers. 

Functionality Comes First ​

Do you open the widows frequently? Do you need easy access for cleaning? Before choosing a product, always consider the function of the window as well as the design. If you are opening and closing the window often, you might consider a lighter blind or shade.

Keep the View, Control the Light

Do you want to maintain a view? Consider the bottom-up/top down option, available on cellular, Roman, pleated and natural shades. This allows you to lower the shade from the top to let in natural light while retaining the desired view.

Accounting for Architectural Details

Are there unique architectural elements in the room? Consider window cranks, window air conditioners, baseboard heaters, light switches, wall sockets, crown mouldings, beams, and chair rails.
