Custom Drapery for Living Rooms
Living rooms are where the drapery program is most often seen and least often forgiven. The studio specifies living-room drapery to read as architecture: floor-to-ceiling panels, hand-tacked headings, and fabric chosen for the room's light — not for a swatch wall.
Why Choose This Style
Living-room drapery sets the formality of the whole house. A French pleat in a heavyweight linen reads as tailored and timeless; a ripple fold in a sheer reads as contemporary and architectural. Both are correct — for different rooms.
We mount living-room drapery ceiling-to-floor whenever the architecture allows, so the eye reads the wall as taller and the room as more composed.
Lining and interlining are non-negotiable in primary living rooms: they give the panel weight, body, and the fall that distinguishes designer drapery from builder-grade.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Should living-room drapery puddle on the floor?
- Only in formal or romantic rooms with traditional architecture. In contemporary living rooms we specify a kiss-to-floor break — the panel meets the floor cleanly without pooling.
- What pleat style is best for a living room?
- French pleat for traditional and transitional architecture; ripple fold for contemporary. The room's architecture tells us which one before the fabric is chosen.
- Should living-room drapery be layered with sheers?
- Almost always, when the room faces the street, the sun, or another property. Sheers handle daytime light; the over-drapery handles privacy and evening mood.
