Custom Window Treatments in Pacific Palisades
Ocean-light specialists: glare and UV control that protects the view, made to measure and installed free, with special care for the neighborhood's new builds.
Palisades windows exist for the view, and the view comes with consequences: hard western glare off the water, UV that fades floors in a couple of summers, and marine-layer mornings that swing to brilliant afternoons. The whole craft here is managing that light without giving up an inch of what the window is for.
We also know this neighborhood is in a season of rebuilding, and a meaningful share of our Palisades work now is helping families dress brand-new construction. New builds are the best possible moment to plan window treatments: motorization can be wired before drywall closes, and whole-home packages get designed once, coherently, instead of room by room over years.
Window treatments we make & install in Pacific Palisades
Roller Shades
Clean, minimal, and endlessly versatile — from light-filtering to full blackout.
Roman Shades
Soft, structured folds in premium fabrics, including our signature Tulip fold.
Zebra Shades
Alternating sheer-and-solid bands that tune light and privacy in one pull — standard or blackout.

Remote, app, and voice control for effortless everyday light — perfect for large or hard-to-reach windows.
Custom Drapery
Made-to-measure Pinch Pleat, Grommet, Rod Pocket, and Ripple Fold panels, sewn and lined to your windows.
Motorized solar shades are the Palisades signature: whole walls of west-facing glass dropping against the afternoon blaze on a schedule, then rising to give the sunset back.
Every project also includes free in-home measurement, a free design consultation, professional installation, and repairs.
Window treatments built for Palisades light
West-facing ocean glare is the defining problem. Solar roller shades handle it best: they cut the blaze and the UV while keeping the horizon visible, and they motorize cleanly for the walls of glass that bluff and Riviera homes favor. Behind them, we'll often layer ripple fold sheers or drapery so evenings can go soft and private without the daytime view paying for it.
The marine layer adds a second consideration: humid mornings and dry afternoons move long fabric, so floor-length drapery near open ocean air wants proper lining and stable weaves that hold their hem through the daily swing. It's the kind of detail a national retailer shipping a box never engineers for.
For homes coming out of construction, we coordinate directly with builders and designers: motor wiring planned at electrical rough-in, measurements taken as soon as windows are cased, and installation scheduled after paint so the family moves into finished rooms rather than bare glass. If you're rebuilding, we'll work at whatever pace your project actually runs.

Pacific Palisades window treatment questions
Do you offer free measurement in Pacific Palisades?
Yes, everywhere in the 90272: the Village, the Riviera, Castellammare, and every street between. A specialist measures each window precisely, brings fabric to evaluate in your actual ocean light, and leaves you a firm itemized quote with installation included. There's no charge and no obligation.
Can I keep my ocean view and still cut the glare?
That's the defining Palisades brief, and yes. Solar roller shades are built for exactly this trade: the weave cuts glare and UV dramatically while keeping the horizon legible, and darker solar fabrics actually preserve the view better than light ones. For evenings, a layered sheer or drape adds privacy after the sun stops being the problem.
We're rebuilding. When should window treatments come into the project?
Earlier than most schedules assume. If you want motorized shades, the wiring decision belongs at electrical rough-in, while walls are open. Measurement happens as soon as windows are cased and trimmed, and installation lands after paint. Loop us in with your builder and we'll fit the project's timeline rather than imposing our own.
What fabrics survive ocean air best?
Stable weaves with proper lining. Solution-dyed solar fabrics shrug off UV, quality linens and wools with lining handle the humidity swing, and interlining keeps long drapery hanging straight through fog-morning-to-dry-afternoon cycles. We'll steer you away from anything that sulks near salt air; some beautiful fabrics simply don't belong this close to the water.
Do you install motorized shades on tall or bluff-side glass?
Yes; that's core Palisades work. We install Somfy and Rollease Acmeda systems, battery or hardwired, on everything from single clerestories to full walls of west glass, with app, remote, and smart home control. Tall installations get proper two-person crews and equipment, and schedules mean the shades manage the afternoon without anyone touching a switch.
