The Quiet Luxury of Custom Window Treatments
Window treatments might seem like the last item on your renovation checklist, but they’re one of the first elements that make a room feel complete. At Fitz Haus Interior Design, we design custom window treatments in Central Pennsylvania that do more than simply look beautiful. The right drapery or shades add polish, provide privacy, improve insulation, and give you full control over natural light, all while elevating the style and comfort of your home.
Here’s why investing in professional, custom-designed window treatments matters more than you think.
Perfect Fit = Elevated Look
Custom drapery is made to the exact dimensions of your windows. No gaps, bunching, or awkward lengths. Each treatment looks intentional, not like an afterthought.
Material Matters
From soft Belgian linen to durable performance fabrics, we select textiles that align with your space, lifestyle, and maintenance needs. Premium fabrics ensure your designer window treatments look and feel luxurious for years to come.
Layered Functionality
We often pair blackout shades with sheer drapery panels or layer Roman shades beneath curtains. This layered approach gives you flexible control over lighting, privacy, and energy efficiency.
Hardware as Jewelry
Custom hardware, whether sleek black rods or timeless brass finials, adds polish and can become a striking design feature in your space.
Height + Scale
Properly hung curtains elongate walls, frame views, and bring balance to oversized or small windows. Custom window treatments are scaled to enhance proportion and create a refined, cohesive design.
Consistency Across Spaces
Every room should feel connected. With custom work, we carry through color tones, materials, and styles to ensure a seamless flow throughout your home.
Why You Shouldn’t DIY This
Store-bought curtains rarely deliver on fit, quality, or longevity. Investing in custom drapery and shades means your design is tailored to your lifestyle and built to last, avoiding the sagging, fading, or breakage that comes with mass-market options.
The Finishing Touch That Defines Your Home
Custom window treatments aren’t just decoration; they’re part of the foundation of great design. They add softness, scale, and functionality while enhancing privacy, energy efficiency, and visual flow. If you want a home that feels thoughtfully finished (not like you just moved in), don’t skip the drapery. The right window treatments don’t just dress a room, they define it.
