Living Room Curtains, Designed Around the Whole Room
Made-to-measure curtains and sheers planned around daylight, privacy, furniture, wall colour and the scale of the room.
Prices and What Is Included
For a living room, compare the main curtain and sheer fabrics in the same light. Each layer has its own fabric quantity and price.
| Treatment | Price per metre |
|---|---|
| Curtains | KSh 1,800–2,500Fabric, stitching and installation included |
| Sheers | KSh 1,100–1,800Fabric, stitching and installation included |
The price within each range depends on your chosen fabric. Curtains and sheers are priced separately. Rods and tracks are quoted separately.
The total depends on the approved quantity for each layer, not simply the number of windows. Share your location, approximate window sizes and photos so we can confirm the fabric, quantities and hardware in an itemised quotation.

Choose the Right Window Treatment
Made-to-measure curtains and sheers planned around daylight, privacy, furniture, wall colour and the scale of the room.
Layered Living Rooms
Use sheers for softer daylight and main curtains for evening privacy and colour.
Full-Length Curtains
Floor-length treatments can emphasise height when the drop and hardware position are measured correctly.
Pattern & Texture
Choose a fabric that works with flooring, upholstery and the visual weight of the room.
Glare Control
Plan stronger coverage where windows create television glare or uncomfortable direct light.
Start With How the Room Is Used
A living room can need privacy, glare control, soft daylight and a strong decorative finish at different times. We plan the treatment around those needs before selecting fabric or hardware.
Measurements, fabric or material, heading, hardware and installation should be confirmed together before the order is finalised.
Discuss Your WindowsWhat We Confirm Before the Order
A reliable specification connects the window dimensions with the way the room is used. We confirm the finished coverage, chosen material, operating method and installation conditions before production or fitting begins.
Finished Size and Coverage
We measure the intended treatment position, not only the glass. Width, drop, overlap, stack-back space, floor clearance and nearby handles or furniture all affect the finished size.
Room-based advice
A living room can need privacy, glare control, soft daylight and a strong decorative finish at different times. We plan the treatment around those needs before selecting fabric or hardware. The selection is checked against daylight, privacy, cleaning and how often the treatment will be opened.
Material, Heading and Hardware
Fabric weight, lining, fullness and heading must work with the rod or track. Confirming them together helps the treatment hang evenly, move freely and remain supported across the full span.
Clear Scope and Quotation
The quotation should identify the selected curtain and sheer fabrics, quantities, headings and any lining. Fabric, stitching and installation are included in the stated curtain and sheer ranges. Rods and tracks are quoted separately; any other agreed items should be clearly identified before approval.
Plan the Details That Change the Result
A strong choice should work when it is open, closed and used every day—not only when viewed as a fabric sample.
Start With the Main Requirement
Decide whether room-based advice, custom fullness and drop or rods, tracks and fitting matters most. Naming the priority first prevents a decorative choice from creating a practical problem later.
Check the Treatment in Both Positions
Consider the window when the treatment is closed and where the fabric, panels or blind will sit when open. Stack-back, projections, centre joins and side coverage affect views, daylight and access to handles.
Plan for Daily Operation
Think about who will use the treatment, how often it moves and how it will be cleaned. High or wide openings, heavy lined curtains and busy work areas may need different controls or hardware from a lightly used room.
Review the Complete Window Schedule
List every opening separately, even when several windows look similar. Record the location, finished width, drop, treatment type, material or fabric, colour, heading, lining, rod or track and installation notes. Repeated sizes can then be grouped, while unusual corners, doors or high windows remain visible in the scope.
Review samples in the room where possible because daylight, wall colour and artificial light can change how a material appears. Confirm which party supplies each item, whether old hardware must be removed, what surface preparation is included and how the finished treatment will be checked at handover. The approved schedule should agree with the quotation before fabrication begins.
Measured, Planned and Fitted
A clear process from the first enquiry to the finished installation.
Share the Space
Send room photos, window dimensions and the main light or privacy concern.
Measure the Full Opening
Confirm coverage beyond the glass, finished drop and curtain stacking space.
Compare Fabrics
View suitable sheers, face fabrics, linings, colours and headings.
Fit the Complete Treatment
Install the hardware, hang the curtains and check the finished drop and movement.
Bring the windows, furniture and finishes together with one measured curtain plan.
Send your location, room type, approximate window dimensions and photos on WhatsApp.
Details That Support a Better Finish
Proportion First
Fullness and drop are chosen for the actual wall and window.
Coordinated Finishes
Fabric, colour and hardware are considered with the rest of the room.
Made to Measure
Panels are produced for the agreed opening rather than a generic size.
Site Details Matter
For Nairobi projects, a site visit can confirm dimensions, fixing surfaces, access and installation conditions. Projects elsewhere in Kenya can be discussed according to location and scope. Share the town or neighbourhood, number of windows, room type, approximate measurements and clear photos when requesting a quotation.
Photos help identify likely options, but final production dimensions should come from the agreed measurement method. Where access, ceiling height, removal of existing hardware or surface preparation affects fitting, those items should appear in the scope before work starts.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do curtains and sheers cost?
Curtains cost KSh 1,800–2,500 per metre depending on fabric, including fabric, stitching and installation. Sheers cost KSh 1,100–1,800 per metre, also including fabric, stitching and installation, and are quoted separately from the main curtains. Rods and tracks are also quoted separately. Your total depends on the selected fabric and the quantity required for your windows.
Should living-room curtains touch the floor?
Many full-length designs finish close to the floor. The correct clearance depends on the look, flooring and how often the curtains will move.
Are sheers enough for privacy?
They can provide daytime screening, but a main curtain or blind is normally needed for stronger evening privacy.
How much fullness should I use?
The heading and fabric determine the best ratio. Two times the finished width is a common starting point for main curtains.
Can curtains reduce television glare?
Suitable fabric and coverage can reduce glare. The window direction and time of day should be considered during selection.
Do you supply the rod or track?
Curtain hardware can be planned with the window treatment so it supports the chosen fabric and heading.
