This feature, “Designer Secrets,” published in the May 2021 issue of Veranda, dives into the expertise of Nashville interior designer Eric Ross, who highlights the vital role window treatments play in enhancing a room, comparing their absence to a home lacking proper landscaping. He showcases a Fowler-inspired design featuring swags and tails, using teal satin as both a contrasting lining and upholstery for crown molding, finished with Deco braided trim.
Ross selects high-quality fabrics and trims from various trade sources, including Aviary fabric from Madeaux, Manuel Canovas Saverne from Cowtan, and Hudson sheer from Carleton Varney. He also incorporates Kensington tassel fringe from Samuel & Sons to elevate the overall aesthetic. This attention to detail highlights Ross’s belief that well-designed window treatments are essential for creating a complete and inviting interior.
“A room without window treatments is like a house without landscaping: naked!”
