Every South Hill home is different, and so is every window. ## One hill, a century of beautiful homes The South Hill holds some of Spokane's finest residential architecture: Kirtland Cutter mansions below the cliff, Olmsted-designed parkways around Manito and Rockwood, post-war ranches near Comstock Park, and newer view homes on Moran Prairie and around Tower Mountain. We love working here because no two homes ask for the same thing. A Tudor dining room, a mid-century living room and a glass-walled great room each need a different answer, and that's exactly where a designer makes the difference. ### At a glance - **Home styles:** Tudor, Georgian & Colonial Revival, Craftsman, Foursquare, mid-century, contemporary - **Common windows:** Leaded and divided-light glass, bays, arched tops, tall great-room windows - **Popular picks:** Roman shades, custom drapery, cellular, solar and motorized shades - **Distance:** About 15 to 25 minutes by car from our Spokane Valley showroom ## South Hill Neighborhood Guides Each neighborhood has its own architecture and light. Choose yours for ideas made for homes like it. ## Design guidance, not a sales pitch Layla, our lead designer, grew up in Spokane and has spent more than 20 years in interior design in Seattle, Dubai and San Francisco. She comes to your home with samples, looks at your architecture, furniture, art and how the light moves through each room, and recommends what will look right for years, not just what's on sale. We're designers, not salespeople. We encourage you to get other quotes and make us your third. Layla, Lead Designer · 20+ years in interior design ## What Works Beautifully in South Hill Homes ### Custom Roman Shades Soft, tailored folds in linen, wool blends or a beautiful print. The classic choice for traditional rooms, and lovely layered under drapery. ### Custom Drapery & Valances Made to order with the right lining, pleat and hardware for the room. Frames the window, adds warmth and finishes a formal space. ### Cellular Shades The most insulating shade we sell. Top-down/bottom-up versions give privacy at street level and daylight from above. ### Solar Shades Cut heat and glare and protect floors and art from fading, while you still see the view. ### Motorized Shades Rechargeable battery motors, so no rewiring. One tap, your voice or a schedule. Ideal for tall and hard-to-reach windows. ### Woven Wood Shades Natural texture that warms a room and complements wood trim, stone and a garden view. ## Room by Room ### Formal living & dining Drapery framing the window with a Roman or cellular shade behind it gives softness, privacy and insulation in one. ### Bedrooms Blackout shades layered with lined drapery for real darkness on long summer evenings. ### Kitchens & baths Moisture-friendly roller, cellular or faux wood options that are easy to clean. ### Tall & view windows Solar shades to keep the view, motorized so they lower themselves before the afternoon sun. ## Questions from South Hill Homeowners **Q: Which South Hill neighborhoods do you serve?** All of them, including Manito, Cannon Hill, Rockwood, Cliff Park and Marycliff, Comstock, High Drive, Lincoln Heights, Southgate, Moran Prairie, Eagle Ridge, Glenrose and the Tower Mountain area. **Q: Do you work with historic homes?** Yes.
