Why Taliaferro Homeowners Choose Custom Drapery & Curtains Taliaferro's mid-century modern and traditional homes feature generous ceiling heights, large windows, and formal living spaces that are ideal for quality drapery. The neighborhood's architectural character calls for window treatments that feel intentional and well-crafted—mass-market options simply don't capture the elegance these homes deserve. Custom drapery allows Taliaferro homeowners to choose from hundreds of premium fabrics, select precise styling (pinch pleat, grommet, ripple fold), and add thermal or blackout lining for energy efficiency. Whether you're managing afternoon sun exposure near Prairie Village Pool or creating a sophisticated entertaining space, custom drapery offers the tailored look and functional versatility that complements Taliaferro's design-conscious community.
