Office- Historic Window Treatments
“I have an unusual design project, would you be willing to help me?”, my client, a retired lawyer said on the phone. He purchased two antique brass cornices, which he envisioned them to be incorporated into his office room window treatments. He envisioned grand, sophisticated, functional, mix of old and new window treatments. Also, they had to be in the client’s favorite color red, but none of the proposed shades of red fabrics were appealing to the client. His favorite piece in the office was the antique rug, which gave inspiration for a completely different color scheme of blue and gold pelmets, crowned with brass cornices. For privacy, I added functioning shaped Roman shades with a gold bottom tassel. My client was pleasantly surprised with complete opposite color scheme and out of the box design, then he finally approved the project.
The most challenging part of the fabrication was to match the pattern on both pelmets and Roman shades. Also, keeping right proportions of all three different elements was another challenge.
These office combination type window treatments reflect the client’s personality and his passion for antiques. His house was underground railroad, which is part of small town’s history. Part of the house was preserved during renovation, such as window glass is still original with air bubbles and initials of passed residents. Window treatments were the last design addition to the house. We incorporated “old and new “and made them grand, as client wished.

Mission Hills, Kansas
This new Country French Manor style house is located on a one-acre site in Mission Hills, Kansas.
Our design is a traditional 2-story center hall plan with the primary living areas on the first floor, placing the formal living and dining rooms to the front of the house and the informal breakfast and family rooms to the rear with direct access to the brick paved courtyard terrace and pool.
The exterior building materials include oversized hand-made brick with cut limestone window sills and door surrounds and a sawn cedar shingle roofing. The Country French style of the interior of the house is detailed using traditional materials such as handmade terra cotta tile flooring, oak flooring in a herringbone pattern, reclaimed antique hand-hewn wood beams, style and rail wall paneling, Venetian plaster, and handmade iron stair railings.
