After two decades of fitting homes along this coast, we've learned fabric choice matters more here than almost anywhere else — intense UV fades cheap material fast, and humidity can warp or mildew the wrong materials within a season. We favor fade-resistant weaves and proper linings, and lean on solar-oriented Roman shades in rooms that take the brunt of the afternoon sun. It's a fabric-first decision, not a style-first one, and that's the kind of call we walk you through at your consultation.

Think of it in layers. Drapery does the heavy lifting — light control, privacy, the finished look of the room. Valances and cornices are the architectural finishing touch on top, adding structure without functioning as your primary treatment. Roman shades stand on their own as a cleaner, more tailored option when you want precise light control without the fullness of drapery. Most homes we work in end up using two or three of these together, and figuring out that mix is really the first thing we help with.

The cost of custom window treatments varies depending on fabric, size, and design complexity. Most projects are tailored to the home, so pricing can range widely. We provide personalized consultations to give accurate estimates based on your space.

Most custom drapery can take 2-3 weeks from design to installation, depending on fabric selection and complexity. We handle the entire process from consultation to final installation.

We specialize in custom drapery, along with valances and cornices that complement and enhance your windows. Each treatment is designed to fit seamlessly with your home’s interior.

Yes, and it's one of the more underrated reasons to go custom. A properly lined drapery panel or a solar-oriented Roman shade can noticeably cut glare and heat gain on a west-facing room or an oversized slider — the kind of window most off-the-shelf products aren't even sized for. We've learned which fabric-and-lining combinations actually hold up to direct afternoon sun versus which just look good for a year.

Yes. We provide in-home consultations to assess your space, take precise measurements, and help you select the best window treatment options for your home.

Absolutely. Every project is fully customized, from fabric selection to hardware and style, ensuring your window treatments complement your home perfectly.

For most homes here, yes — and it's less about luxury than fit. A large share of the homes we measure have oversized sliders or non-standard window shapes that off-the-shelf curtains simply aren't cut for; you end up with something that technically covers the window but never sits or hangs right. Custom fixes that at the source because it's built to your exact measurements from day one.

We bring a curated selection of designer fabrics to your in-home consultation if you need help with the fabric selection process. We will also happily work with you if you source your own fabric.
