Bigger homes, bigger windows

Long Island homes tend to have more glass and taller rooms than the city: two-story foyers and great rooms, Palladian and arched windows, walls of French doors to the yard, and sunrooms. On the North Shore and South Shore, waterfront homes are built around the view. Out east, beach houses have wide glass and sea air.

Why drapery matters here

Height. Windows 15 or 20 feet up can’t be reached by hand. Motorized shades and drapery are the practical answer, and they keep the room looking finished.

Sun and fading. Big south- and west-facing glass fades floors, rugs and upholstery. Solar sheers and lined panels protect what’s inside.

Views. Waterfront rooms need treatments that disappear when open. Ceiling tracks with tight stack-back keep the glass clear.

Sea air. For beach houses we suggest fabrics and hardware that handle humidity and sun.

When motorized makes sense

Tall windows, French doors across a whole wall, and homes where everything should open in the morning and close at sunset. Schedules and app control make it automatic.

questions

How do you cover arched or Palladian windows?

With shades or drapery mounted below the arch, or custom-shaped treatments for the arch itself.

Can all the shades in the house work together?

Yes. Motorized systems can group rooms and run on schedules or an app.

Do you travel out east?

Yes, to the North Fork and the Hamptons, scheduled in advance.
