Fantastic Design Ideas
We had such an awesome experience with the team from Fresh Design! Kristy, Scott, and the entire crew were so helpful and accommodating with all my requests. They came up with some fantastic design ideas, as well as some smart tricks to help the drapery lay just right, given our house is older, and had some crooked ceilings to combat. I can’t say enough about them, if you’re looking to invest in blinds or drapery for your home, look no further. You’ll be in great hands!​

Top Notch!
Fresh Design and its team are top-notch! I needed drapery and blinds for my condo and after doing some research I visited their showroom. It's an amazing place. Kristy immediately put me at ease and gave an overview of the different types of window coverings available and trending. She also came to my home and provided excellent advice on the choice of fabrics, color and design. Within days Logan came to take precise measurements with a minimum of fuss. After a few weeks the drapes, sheers and blinds were ready. Logan returned with his assistant, Ayden, and installed everything within a few hours. They did an amazing job in that short span of time. Now my condo feels complete and looks fantastic as well. The experience, professionalism, and friendliness of this team were greatly appreciated. I would gladly recommend Fresh Design to anyone.​

Incredibly Helpful
We ordered drapery and blinds for our bedroom, which gets very hot in the summer. Thanks to the premium quality of the products, the room now stays cool. While they are expensive, they are absolutely worth it—especially considering the excellent service we received. Kristy, who guided us through the entire process, was incredibly helpful in advising us on what to choose and following up on the order and delivery. Moe, the technician, was quick, professional, and precise with both the measurements and installation. The team's communication was excellent throughout.

Highly Recommend!
I had such a terrific experience with Fresh Design that I’ve used them multiple times, for custom Roman blinds, ripple fold linen and pleated blackout drapery. The range of options, deep design expertise, and exacting quality of the finishing is well worth it. Highly recommend!

Benefits of Custom Curtains
Custom curtains eliminate all the issues homeowners experience with ready-made options, especially when it comes to fit, function, and light control.
-
Perfect Fit: Made exactly to your window so you don’t end up with panels that are too short or too long.
​
-
Better Light Control: You can choose sheer, lined, or room-darkening curtains depending on how much light you want to enter your space.
​
-
Privacy without Losing Light: Sheers let light in while still giving you coverage where you need it.
​
-
Thermal Insulation: Even a light fabric helps take the draft off the window and improves comfort in both the summer and winter.
​
-
Sound Reduction: Curtains can dramatically reduce outside noise, especially in busy areas like Downtown Vancouver.
​
-
Seamless Operation: With professional hardware, your curtains will open and close easily without catching or dragging.
​
-
Fully Custom: You can choose the fabric, pleat, lining, and hardware to suit your space and style.
Where Can You Use Custom Curtains?
Living Rooms
Curtains soften the light and make the space feel more comfortable. Even a sheer layer can change how the light enters the room, making it feel more finished.
Bedrooms
Curtains are ideal for room darkening and blocking out light when you need it. They also help reduce noise, which makes all the difference for a good night’s sleep.
Media Rooms
Curtains are the perfect addition to an elevated media room. They help with both light control and sound, while adding the perfect cinema touch to the space.
Commercial Spaces
We often use curtains as room dividers in offices or meeting areas. They give you the flexibility to open or close off a space as needed.

Common Questions about Custom Curtains
What are custom curtains?
Custom curtains are made-to-measure window coverings where you choose the fabric, lining, pleat style, and hardware. They’re designed to fit your window properly and function seamlessly. They’re an excellent option for anyone who loves style and function equally.
Who should buy custom curtains?
Anyone who wants curtains that have a better fit and function than ready-made curtains should purchase custom curtains. They’re ideal for large windows, small windows, or spaces where standard options don’t work well. They add softness, dampen outside noise, and add insulation to a room.
How much do premium custom curtains cost?
The cost of custom curtains depends on the fabric, window size, and level of customization. Since everything is made to order, pricing varies based on what you choose. We recommend that you get in touch - visit the store or schedule an in-home consultation. We can create a custom quote based on the exact specifications of your windows.
Are premium custom curtains worth it?
Yes, they’re worth the investment because they are far more functional than ready-made curtains while adding softness and beauty to the home. Ready-made curtains usually suffer from poor fit and don’t open and close properly. With custom curtains, you’ll get better light control, insulation, and overall finish.
Which brands of curtains do you carry?
We work with a wide range of fabric suppliers and offer thousands of options for custom curtains. We also have hundreds of hardware options. Our curtains are made to order in Vancouver.
What’s the biggest difference between ready-made and custom curtains?
Ready-made curtains often don’t fit properly and don’t function well. Custom curtains are designed to fit your window and operate smoothly with the right hardware.
Can curtains work on small or narrow windows?
Yes, curtains can be customized to fit very small or narrow windows where blinds might not work. They’re the ideal window covering for odd or unusual windows.
Do curtains help with noise?
Yes, they act as a sound barrier, especially in areas with traffic or outside noise.
Can curtains help with drafts?
Yes, even a light, sheer layer can help block the draft from the window and make the space feel more comfortable.
What are the main downsides of custom curtains?
They’re not suitable for spaces with baseboard heating, and they need proper hardware and installation to work correctly.
