(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, November 02, 2016 ) Tigard, OR -- IM Window Treatments began with a goal in mind of providing a unique, cutting edge cornice product. This is a cornice window treatment product that company founders have discovered, which can give people the look of an expensive designer cornice at a lower price. IM Window Treatments quickly decided that the goal would be to offer this product to consumers and to make it more affordable and easier to install than window treatments that were currently offered.
Cornices are a box like window treatment featuring solid construction that add a classic sense of style to a room. The uniquely designed cornices in tailored styles that are now offered by IM Window Treatments make statements ranging from continental and sophisticated to classic and traditional. Cornices will normally have a border which can include accents like cording, welts of varying sizes or contrasting colored material. They can be slightly raised at the bottom or have a wavy appearance to create design and architectural interest.
Cornices can be a smart window choice when extra hardware like rods or finials are not desired. They tend to make the ceilings of a room look higher, soften the room space and make windows look larger. The box style of the majority of cornices gives them a clean, attractive look and provides a more expensive look as well.
The company was founded by the Lefever Family. For 22 years, they owned and operated a furniture company in Portland, Oregon, called Interior Motives Accents and Designs, Inc. They also operated an interior design firm. The inspiration to establish IM Window Treatments came from working with clients in their homes, creating custom window treatments that made uniquely stylized design statements.
IM Window Treatments happily participates in philanthropic endeavors that benefit the local community. They are actively involved in organizations like the Home Builders Foundation of Oregon, Kiwanis, the Amy Roloff Charity Foundation, Raphael House and Portland Community College. They've been known to offer not only monetary support to charitable organizations, but have offered professional services and physical participation as well.
The company keeps a keen focus on helping customers to find exactly the right window treatments for the rooms that they will be featured in. They also give professional advice to those looking to use cornices as their main window decor. Family members have specialized skills in areas like customer relations and support, manufacturing and interior design. Attention is paid to using re-purposed products, including Oregon forest wood products when possible.
Design ideas can be created using special 3-D computer technology, and work is done with clients, architects and contractors. Cornice window treatments are used that will enhance the space they are intended to occupy. The goal and focus of IM Window Treatments is always to complete the clients' unique vision for their decorated spaces in the most timely and cost-effective ways possible.
About IM Window Treatments: IM Window Treatments was created to offer an affordable solution to window décor.
For 22 years, the Lefever family owned and operated the interior design firm and furniture showroom Interior Motives Accents and Designs Inc. in Portland, Oregon.
Having worked with clients on their homes, window treatments were always the final finishing touch. The "icing on the cake" to any room-taking windows beyond basic window shade blinds.
For over 30 years, Tammy Lefever had always designed custom window treatments for her clients. It was not uncommon to budget a $1000 a window.
A few years ago they found a product that offered the look of a designer cornice box at a fraction of the cost. Affordable and easy to install, they decided to make this product available to everyone.
