DRAPERY
Our custom drapery will instantly transform any home and room. It is one of the most important window treatments from a design perspective and often overlooked by homeowners. Drapery brings your eye up visually, accentuating ceiling height, making your room look larger. It also brings fabric and texture into a room that often looks stark and unfinished without it, warming up a space and creating a beautifully designed finished look. Whether it’s fully functioning drapery that can be completely closed or decorative side panels just to enhance your design, custom drapery should always be considered in your home.
The current trend for drapery is to keep it very simple. Long gone are the days of heavy, overly done fabrics and layers. Drapery should enhance your light and view, not take away from it. Typically drapery will outlast your furniture and decor so by choosing solid neutral colors or sheers you will be getting the most out of your investment for a long time to come.
There are many ways to incorporate pattern, texture and design into drapery and yet still keep it simple. One such way is by choosing a patterned fabric. Modern, geometric prints are the current trend but there are also plenty of embroidered, floral and specialty prints to choose from to enhance any style and palette. There are also decorative trims and banding that can be added to the leading edge to add an extra element of design and coordinate with other fabrics in the room.
When considering window treatments for bedrooms or any space where people will be sleeping, drapery is the best option for true blackout. Many other window treatments will provide room darkening liners or fabrics but if you are light sensitive, those options will not provide you with as much light control as drapery does. We suggest layering your blackout drapery with other window treatments that can be used during the day to be able to have light and heat control without completely darkening your room.
Did you know that you can motorize drapery? With the touch of a button on a remote you can instantly open all of the drapery in a room. Imagine laying in your bed in the morning and opening your drapery to your beach views without ever getting up! You can even program the drapery to open and close at different times of the day to fit your schedule and lifestyle.
Custom Drapery can be added to places you might not have thought of. Do you have multiple bunk beds in one room or in an open area such as a hallway? Let us make custom drapery for each individual bunk, giving privacy and light control for each bed. Using custom drapery to separate spaces is also a creative yet soft way to address sometimes difficult design situations. Another great use of custom drapery is to add a wall of drapery along a wall, such as in bedrooms along the wall that the bed is against, to add softness and a dramatic effect. Whether it’s bunk bed drapery or window drapery, we can help you create custom drapery that is functional yet reflects your personal style.
The possibilities are truly endless with custom drapery. With a consultation from one of our design consultants in your home we can help you with the unique window configurations in your home and help you choose fabric that will best suit your needs and decor.
