I’ve worked with Darren across multiple projects and he’s always been amazing to work with — competitively priced and very knowledgeable, not only about his products and services, but also the structural requirements around the installation and what’s needed to achieve the desired finish.
His window furnishings provide the shading required while also softening the overall look and feel of a space.
I would recommend SHADES BY vassilieff without a doubt.
