Our Story
At Outlooks Design we really care. Our experienced designers say that nothing makes them happier than the process of making clients’ home décor dreams a reality. We love sourcing the perfect fabrics and finding the perfect solutions for window coverings that filter light, protect privacy, and function as beautifully as they look.
Outlooks Design has been creating custom window coverings, draperies and soft furnishings solutions for over 20 years. Today, our studio, complete with a full range of window coverings, including blinds, fabric and hardware samples, is located just off Beacon Avenue in Sidney, BC.
Years of experience in the business have taught us that personal care is the best way to ensure that our clients get exactly what they want in window covering treatments and soft furnishings. We realize how happy it makes us when we see the look of delight on our clients’ faces after the unveiling! We are committed to upholding our most cherished values in every project and task we take on.”
We’re delighted to be featured on Houzz and to have been awarded their coveted Best Of Houzz Service Award for 2021. Browse some of our favorite projects in our profile, and let us know what you think. Perhaps they can serve as inspiration for your own custom project. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram to see our latest projects and inspiration.

We had just had a very unsatisfying experience with a large supplier of window coverings when Paula at Outlooks Design was referred to us. Thankfully, Paula was able to take on our project for the same quote as was provided by the much larger (but very poor service oriented) company. We are happy to say that Outlooks Design did a fabulous job of all our window coverings and has provided strong after sales product support to assist us with two minor manufacturing issues we encountered (not Outlooks issue at all). Thank you Paula and the Outlooks Design team! We will definitely use you again for any more window coverings we need.
Let’s Talk
We are committed to upholding our most cherished values in every project and task we take on.
We begin with a virtual or in-person in-home consultation to see your space and discuss what you need. It may be simple as new blinds for privacy, an innovative drape for an awkward window, or fresh upholstery for an old heirloom – whatever your home needs, we can come up with a solution together.
The next step is to put together a selection of fabrics and hardware ideas for you, along with a sketch of what your space will look like using different options. From there, we can narrow down to the final, perfect option that combines both beauty and function.
The final step is to have your custom design brought to life at a competitive price, installed by talented local trades people, who provide quality workmanship.
Contact us today and let’s talk about how we can help you bring your vision to life.
For blinds, drapery or upholstery I would not go to anyone else and could not recommend more highly. Paula Grypma does such beautiful work that you are going to want to just keep coming back until every room feels like it belongs in a magazine spread.
