You’ll notice the difference immediately. Your energy bills drop because your AC isn’t fighting the sun all day long. Your furniture stops fading because UV rays can’t penetrate quality window treatments we design for South Florida’s intense climate.
Your home looks better too. Our custom window treatments aren’t just functional—they’re the finishing touch that makes rooms feel complete and intentional, not like an afterthought.
During hurricane season, you’ll have real peace of mind. Not because we’re selling you storm shutters—we don’t do those—but because properly fitted window coverings provide an extra layer of protection and privacy when you need it most.
Miami Design Group specializes in comprehensive design solutions for West Dixie Bend homes and businesses. We’re not just a window treatment company—we’re a full-service design team that understands how window coverings fit into your bigger picture.
What sets us apart is simple: we’re building our own manufacturing facility, so we control quality from start to finish. That means better products, faster turnaround, and pricing that makes sense.
We work with residential homeowners who want their spaces to look and function better. We also handle commercial projects for hotels, schools, and government facilities that need solutions built to last.
First, we come to you for proper measurements and consultation. We’ll assess your windows, discuss your needs, and show you options that actually work for Florida living. No pressure, just information.
Once you decide, we handle manufacturing and scheduling. If you choose motorized treatments, we coordinate any electrical work with qualified contractors—we don’t do electrical ourselves, but we know who does it right.
Installation day is straightforward. We show up on time, install everything properly, and test all functions before we leave. You’ll know exactly how everything works, and we’ll handle any adjustments needed during the first few weeks.
Most residential projects take 1-2 days for installation once manufacturing is complete. Manufacturing typically takes 2-3 weeks for custom treatments. We schedule installation when it’s convenient for you and complete everything in one visit whenever possible.

You get professional measurement, custom manufacturing, and complete installation. We handle both residential and commercial projects, from single rooms to entire buildings. Our window treatments include traditional and motorized options.
We specialize in energy-efficient solutions that reduce cooling costs—important in South Florida. Basic custom blinds start around $150 per window, while motorized treatments typically range from $400-800 per window. Commercial projects get volume pricing.
We also integrate window treatments with home automation systems. If you’re building a smart home, your window coverings can be part of that system. We coordinate with other contractors to ensure everything works together properly.
For West Dixie Bend specifically, we understand the unique challenges of Broward County living. The investment usually pays for itself through energy savings within 2-3 years in Florida’s climate.
Cellular shades and solar shades perform exceptionally well in West Dixie Bend because they’re designed specifically for South Florida’s intense heat and humidity. Cellular shades create an insulating air pocket that can reduce energy costs by 15-25%, while solar shades block UV rays without completely eliminating your view.
Faux wood blinds are another excellent choice for this area. Unlike real wood, they won’t warp, crack, or fade in Florida’s humidity and intense UV exposure. They’re moisture-resistant, cost less than real wood, and often look identical to authentic wood blinds.
For homes with large windows or sliding glass doors, we recommend solar screen panels or Norman vertical cellular shades because they stack neatly and don’t interfere with door operation while providing excellent heat and glare control.
Most homeowners in West Dixie Bend see energy bill reductions of 15-25% with properly selected window treatments. The savings come from reducing heat gain through windows, which means your air conditioning doesn’t have to work as hard during Florida’s extended cooling season.
The investment typically pays for itself within 2-3 years through energy savings alone. For example, if your monthly cooling costs drop by $50, that’s $600 annually—meaning a $1,500 window treatment investment breaks even in about 2.5 years.
Cellular shades and solar shades provide the best energy efficiency because they either create insulating air pockets or block solar heat before it enters your home. Motorized treatments can maximize these savings by automatically adjusting throughout the day based on sun position and indoor temperature.
Yes, we work with hotels, schools, government facilities, and office buildings throughout West Dixie Bend. Commercial projects get volume pricing and dedicated project management because we understand that business schedules are different from residential timelines.
We can often install during off-hours or weekends to minimize disruption to your operations. Our commercial-grade treatments are built for heavy use and easy maintenance, which is crucial for facilities that see constant traffic.
We also provide ongoing service contracts for large facilities that need regular maintenance and adjustments. This includes everything from routine cleaning guidance to mechanical adjustments for motorized systems. Commercial installations typically involve more complex coordination, but we handle all the logistics so you don’t have to.
Outside mount is typically better for homes in West Dixie Bend because it provides superior light blocking and heat control by extending beyond the window frame. This installation method covers more of the window opening, reducing light leakage and improving energy efficiency.
Inside mount offers a cleaner, more streamlined appearance because the treatment sits inside the window frame, but it allows more light and heat to enter around the edges. This can be problematic in South Florida where controlling heat gain is crucial for energy efficiency.
For energy efficiency and UV protection—which are priorities in our climate—outside mount is usually the preferred choice. However, the decision also depends on your window frame depth, architectural details, and personal aesthetic preferences. We’ll assess your specific windows during consultation and recommend the best approach.
The typical timeline is 3-4 weeks from initial consultation to completed installation. Here’s how it breaks down: consultation and measurement usually happen within a few days of your call, manufacturing takes 2-3 weeks for custom treatments, and installation typically takes 1-2 days depending on project size.
Motorized installations take slightly longer due to electrical coordination and programming requirements. We need to coordinate with electrical contractors if new wiring is required, and the programming process for automated systems adds time to both manufacturing and installation.
Single rooms usually finish installation in a few hours, while whole-house projects might take two full days. We schedule installation when it’s convenient for you and complete everything in one visit whenever possible to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Absolutely. UV rays are the primary cause of furniture, carpet, and artwork fading, and Florida’s intense sunlight accelerates this damage significantly. Quality window treatments can block up to 99% of harmful UV rays while still allowing natural light into your rooms.
Solar shades are particularly effective because they’re specifically designed to filter UV rays and reduce glare while maintaining your view. Cellular shades with UV-blocking fabrics also provide excellent protection, and blackout treatments offer complete UV protection when closed.
The investment in UV protection pays for itself by extending the life of your interior furnishings. Consider that replacing faded furniture, carpets, and artwork costs thousands of dollars, while quality window treatments provide protection for years. We use materials specifically chosen for Florida’s climate, including UV-resistant components that won’t degrade in our intense sunlight.
