That’s a great question 👍 — because window treatments (curtains, blinds, sheers) are often left to the last minute, but they can totally change the mood of a space. A good interior designer should ideally integrate them into the overall design instead of leaving you to figure it out later.

✅ What Good Designers Usually Offer

Table of Contents

4. Integration in Design

5. Add-ons

Motorized curtains/blinds → good for luxury homes.
Thermal/energy-saving fabrics → useful in Delhi’s heat.
Acoustic curtains → cut noise in city-facing flats.

💡 What You Should Ask Your Designer

Do you design & source window treatments, or do I buy separately?
Which brands/fabric vendors do you work with?
Are tracks/rods/pelmet designs included in ceiling drawings?
Can you show me fabric swatches and mockups?
Do you offer motorized options for large windows?

⚠️ Red Flags

Designer says: “Curtains and blinds you can arrange later” 🚩 (means incomplete scope).
No integration into renders → you won’t know how the final space looks.
Pushes only one vendor without showing variety.

✅ Pro Tip

For apartments in Delhi NCR → roller blinds + sheer curtains are most practical.
For luxury villas → go for full-height drapes with pelmet concealment.
Always see fabric samples in actual daylight before finalizing.

👉 Do you want me to prepare a Window Treatment Guide (with photos of curtain & blind styles + when to use each) that you can show your designer to make sure they don’t leave this decision till the end?

Do you provide custom window treatments (curtains/blinds)?
