Why Shop Read Design for Custom Products

We are a Hunter Douglas Gallery conveniently located in TWO Dallas-Fort Worth areas serving residents for over 25 years. One Gallery is located in Plano in the Lakeside Market and the other Gallery is located in Southlake, right on Southlake Blvd. In addition to the Galleries, we have 2 Mobile Showrooms so we can gladly come to your home for a design consultation. When we come to your home we can see your needs and be better able to help you. We can help you with many interior design issues that need a professional eye from blinds, shutters, and shades to furniture arrangement and accessorizing. We can also help you with custom window treatments, draperies, and curtains.

When beginning your interior design project, you have a lot to consider. You want to find someone that understands and listens to your needs and can help you visualize your ideas. You want personalized service that only a Small & Local Family Owned & Operated Business can provide.

So Why Shop Read Design Instead of a Big Box Store?

At Read Design, we are that Small Texas Business and it is our business. We make sure that we are all trained, certified and knowledgeable on the products inside out. You can expect personalized service because we will take an interest in you and will work to find the best solution to your interior design needs.

But you might ask – Would the big box stores have better pricing? Not necessarily. Big box stores can get better pricing on container products when they buy in bulk, such as mattresses, appliances, televisions, etc. But when it comes to custom orders, this is not the case. As that small business, we actually have BETTER pricing! You have to take into consideration the huge overhead expense that the big box stores have. This would include electricity, insurance, sales force, advertising, damages, and the list goes on and on. All of our window treatments including Hunter Douglas Window Fashions and draperies, curtains, and valances are custom ordered because windows are ever the exact same size from one customer’s home to the next. And no two customers have the same needs.

At Read Design we do not have quotas or a revolving door of salespeople. We have a family atmosphere and a passion for design. We are here to walk you through our Gallery with over 70 working samples. We are here to show you the features and benefits of each product. We are here to listen to you and direct you to products we think might inspire you. We are here to show you the latest trends and the current styles including the new PowerView motorization. We are here to help you find the perfect solution. We are here to offer professional and timely delivery and installation. Most importantly, we are here to offer you peace of mind.

Helping a New Customer

We recently helped a customer who said she had been everywhere looking for window treatments for her recently remodeled home. Other companies were pushing her towards plantation shutters or wood blinds, but what we heard from her is that she wanted to be Refreshed and Recharged. She wanted privacy at night but during the day, she wanted the light to shine in and the shades to disappear. She wanted a simple, but sophisticated look. For her next project, she wants to soften the look with stationary drapery panels for her next project.

Designer Roller Shades

For a look that is both custom and classic, Designer Roller Shades offer a clean appearance in a beautiful range of fabrics along with a variety of design options and lifting systems. Our solution for this customer was Designer Roller Shades by Hunter Douglas with the PowerView lift system. We chose a neutral textured fabric that will provide a backdrop and foundation for any color in the room. The Fabric is called Duncan and the color is Wisteria. This fabric gave our customer the updated look she wanted. And the PowerView lift system has offered her the convenience she had hoped for.

Next steps are stationary drapery panels and curtains. Here we selected a Fabric from Kravet in a pattern style.
