Sierra Shade & Window Design
Custom window coverings—designed in your home, measured precisely, and installed with care.
Your windows do a lot of work. They shape the light you wake up to, the privacy you feel at night, and the comfort of your home through Reno heat, Sparks sun, and Tahoe’s shifting seasons. At Sierra Shade & Window Design, we make that work beautifully—with custom window coverings that fit your space, your style, and the way you actually live.
We’re a design-forward, detail-obsessed window covering team. That means you don’t have to guess what will look right, block glare at the right time of day, or fit a tricky window. We bring options to you, talk through what you want your rooms to feel like, measure with precision, and handle the installation so everything operates smoothly and looks finished.
If you’re ready to stop living with “good enough” blinds or a temporary curtain solution, we’d love to help. Request an in-home design consultation and let’s build a plan that makes your windows feel intentional.

Service Areas
Serving Reno, Sparks, and Lake Tahoe with window coverings designed for the way you live.
Motorized Window Coverings
Effortless light control—at the touch of a button (or on a schedule)
Window coverings that make everyday life easier (and better looking)
Window coverings aren’t just décor—they’re daily function. The right solution can soften harsh afternoon sun, protect your interiors, improve sleep, reduce screen glare, and give you privacy without turning your home into a cave.
When we design your window treatments, we focus on the outcomes you care about most:
- Light control that matches the room (bright and airy, softly filtered, or truly dark when you need it)
- Privacy that feels comfortable without sacrificing the view you paid for
- A clean, tailored finish that makes the whole room look more polished
- Smooth operation you’ll enjoy using every day
Because every home is different, we don’t force a one-size-fits-all approach. We’ll help you compare styles side-by-side and choose what makes sense for each space—living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, offices, and those “how do we cover that?” windows.
Explore custom options: shades, blinds, and more
If you’re not sure what you want yet, perfect—that’s what we’re here for. We’ll walk you through the most popular categories and how they perform, then narrow in on what suits your home.
You might be considering:
- Shades for clean lines, versatile light filtering, and a modern look
- Blinds for adjustable light control and a classic feel
- Layered looks that add softness and dimension while improving privacy and light management
We’ll help you think beyond the product label and focus on what matters: how it looks from inside the room, how it reads from the curb, how it feels in morning light, and how it performs at night.
And if you’re an interior designer, we love collaborating. Bring us into your project early and we’ll help you align window coverings with the larger vision—color, texture, hardware, and the details that make a space feel finished.
Our in-home design consultation: confident choices, less guesswork
Most window covering regret comes from choosing off a screen or measuring in a hurry. Our in-home consultation fixes that.
We come to you so we can:
- See the true light in your rooms throughout the day
- Understand your privacy needs (neighbors, street exposure, second-story sightlines)
- Work with your existing colors, finishes, and furnishings
- Help you choose options that feel right—not just what’s trending
You’ll be able to compare styles and materials in the space where they’ll live. We’ll answer the practical questions, too: how you want things to operate, which rooms need stronger light control, and what’s best for windows that are tall, wide, or uniquely shaped.
When you’re ready, we’ll turn your decisions into a clear plan for your home—no pressure, just smart guidance.
Measuring & installation: the details that make it look custom (because it is)
Even the most beautiful window covering won’t look right if it’s measured or installed poorly. That’s why we treat measurement and installation as part of the design—not an afterthought.
We handle the measuring with precision, then install your window coverings carefully so they:
- Fit cleanly and operate smoothly
- Hang level and look intentional
- Provide the coverage and privacy you expected
- Feel like they belong in the architecture of your home
Our goal is simple: when we’re done, your window treatments should look effortless—and you should feel the difference every time you adjust them.
Designed for Reno, Sparks, and Lake Tahoe homes
Northern Nevada and Tahoe homes come with their own realities: bright sun, big views, and rooms that can swing from blinding glare to dim shadows depending on the season and orientation. We design with that in mind.
Whether you’re in Reno, Sparks, or Lake Tahoe, we’ll help you balance view + privacy and beauty + performance—so your home feels comfortable all day, not just in photos.
