A Tower and a Cape Cod, Five Minutes Apart

Arlington invented the trick every planner now copies: stack the density on the Metro corridor and keep the neighborhoods leafy two blocks behind it. For window treatments, that means the county runs on two completely different physics. Along Rosslyn–Ballston and National Landing, the problem is glass by the wall — western exposures that cook condos at 5 PM and floor-to-ceiling openings no ladder-and-wand arrangement handles gracefully. Behind the corridor, in the Capes and colonials of Cherrydale, Lyon Village, and Westover, the windows are the opposite: modest, six-over-six, and deserving of treatments that respect trim painted forty times since 1948.

Then there's the third Arlington — Fairlington and its garden-condo cousins, 1940s brick communities where the windows come in exactly two sizes and the association has opinions about what the street sees. We know the drill on all three, and the free consultation arrives with samples matched to whichever Arlington you live in.

Clarendon, Fairlington & the National Landing Boom

Working the county end to end: Clarendon and Ballston condos pair solar screens with sheer shadings for living rooms that entertain; Lyon Village and Country Club Hills renovations bring the classic colonial brief — wood, Romans, and the occasional shutter conversation; Columbia Pike and Shirlington mix garden condos with townhomes where dual shades earn their keep; and National Landing keeps delivering brand-new glass — residents furnishing fast, and offices along the corridor where our commercial side handles the spec work.
