Window Treatments Used as Dividers in Restaurants & Other Boutique Commercial Spaces

Window treatments are not only for windows!

Often, they are used to divide a large commercial space (restaurant, reception hall, etc) into smaller sections. Seemingly simple projects, they actually are all but...

Here's one example from our recent work.

Our task:  to create a divider drapery panel, which this restaurant can use to section off a portion of their dining room floor.

Execution:  double sided, self-lined drapery panel; ripplefold construction; heavy-duty architrac track; 

What can go wrong:  
-60lbs!!!! of fabric is very difficult to handle, sew, and install
-this fabric was growing, stretching, expanding, and generally not laying easily
-ripplefold tape and snaps mean that there is absolutely no room for adjustment

Result:  beautiful divider drapery panel and a happy client.

BTW, the restaurant was designed by the brilliant team at Gacek Design Group - www.gacekdesigngroup.com
