Love Is Blinds installs custom blinds Sabino Canyon Tucson AZ homeowners choose to protect the view, from the foothills custom homes off Sabino Canyon Road with large view glass on the Catalinas to the contemporary homes near Sabino Vista with a high view-wall to motorize. The job here is simple. Keep the Mt Lemmon sightline open and take the afternoon glare off the west and mountain-facing view walls. Matt owns the Arizona side, and he measures, quotes, and installs every order himself.
In the NE foothills the glass is the whole point. It frames the Catalinas and Mt Lemmon, and the job of a window treatment here is to hold that sightline while taking the afternoon glare off the west and mountain-facing view walls. These four are what Matt specs most often on a Sabino Canyon consultation, ordered for a refined, design-forward home off Sabino Canyon Road, Kolb Road, and near the Sabino Canyon Recreation Area.
Contemporary foothills homes near Sabino Vista carry an upper run of view glass no wand can reach. With a motor in the headrail, the shades lower on a timer, by voice, or with a single tap, and they connect to Alexa, HomeKit, or Control4 the day Matt installs.

A sheer-and-solar dual layer on one roll is the foothills answer to glare. The sheer keeps the Catalina and Mt Lemmon sightline open through the day, and the solar layer drops when the afternoon glare comes off the view glass.

For the side windows, baths, and entry rooms where a view wall is not the story, custom plantation shutters give a Sabino Canyon home a clean, polished line, built to the true opening and finished against the existing casing.

On a west or mountain-facing view wall, exterior solar screens stop the glare at the screen before it reaches the glass, cutting cooling load 30 to 40 percent on those rooms while the mesh holds the sightline to the Catalinas.

Two Sabino Canyon homes come up again and again. Both want the sightline kept and the afternoon glare handled.
A large view window frames the Catalinas and Mt Lemmon, and the family does not want to lose a foot of it. Matt specs a sheer-and-solar dual layer that keeps the sightline open through the day and drops the solar fabric for the afternoon glare on the west and mountain-facing glass.
A high view-wall on the Catalinas with an upper run of glass nobody can reach. Matt sets motorized shades sized to the opening so the whole wall drops on a schedule or one tap, paired to the smart home on install day.
A view-driven home runs on its glass, and glass that big takes a lot of afternoon sun. On the west and mountain-facing view walls, low afternoon glare washes out the room and fades whatever sits in front of it, and low-angle sun rakes straight across the sightline on top of the long hot afternoons. A sheer-and-solar dual layer or an exterior solar screen cuts that glare and the UV while the view stays open through the screen, so the room stays comfortable and the art and furnishings are protected. Matt walks the comfort and light control room by room on the consultation, tuned to how each view wall faces.
A clear three-step path, and the same owner runs all of it.
Matt arrives at the time you booked carrying the whole sample case, motorized samples for the high view-walls, sheer-and-solar dual fabrics for holding the sightline, and exterior solar mesh for the west exposures. Together you go wall by wall and hold each fabric to the mountain-facing light.
He laser-measures each opening to the sixteenth, the wide view glass and the high runs that need a motor alike. The itemized quote is written up right there at your table.
About two to four weeks past the deposit, Matt comes back, syncs the motors to your Alexa or HomeKit, programs the view-wall schedule, takes the packaging with him, and wraps the entire home in one visit.
