Motorized Shades & Interior Project at Whisdom The Forestias
Motorized Shades Installation and Interior Enhancement at Whisdom The Forestias
Introduction
We were initially contacted to design and install motorized roller shades for an apartment at Whisdom The Forestias. After meeting the owner, he requested additional interior work, and as a comprehensive home interior solution, we were delighted to take on more projects to enhance the apartment's aesthetics and functionality. Throughout the process, we communicated with the owner, who had to leave Thailand and was abroad while we managed his interior project here in Bangkok in his absence.
Media TV Frame Installation, Wall Mounting, and Electrical
The first task was installing a media frame box for the TV on the wall in the living room. We had to obtain approval from the building's juristic office to cut into the wall. After finding a media frame that fit the 10 cm wide wall, we ordered it from abroad. Our electrical team then installed the frame, connected the wiring, and set up the TV on the wall, achieving a minimalist look. Lastly, our electricians routed the wiring to the installation points for the electric motors, allowing them to be connected directly to the power supply.

Curtain Box Installation
Next, we installed curtain boxes to cover the roller shades above the windows. The existing cover boxes needed extending to accommodate the two-layer motorized roller shades, which required 25 cm of space. We reinforced the ceiling with thick plywood to support the heavy blinds and electric motors. Our interior carpenter team expertly handled this task, ensuring a seamless finish.
Motorized Roller Shades Installation
We installed two-layered motorized roller shades: a 100% blackout layer and an outer sheer layer. These were installed on large windows in the living room and the windows in the master and guest bedrooms. For the expansive living room window, we used both large and small roller shades to cover the entire area since it wasn’t doable with just one set of wide roller shades. But for the bedrooms’ windows and one of the living room windows, we were able to cover the entire windows with just one set of roller shades. The widest motorized roller shades available in the market by us (Cher Decor) with a width of 370 cm.

Rail Channels and Window Handles
To ensure complete light blocking, we added rail channels on the sides of the window frames. This required changing the window handles, as the original ones protruded too much. After an extensive search, we located suitable handles from a dealer in Northern Thailand, as there were no options available in Bangkok. The new, narrower handles were installed, fitting within the window frame without protruding, allowing the shades to slide smoothly through their rail channels and achieve the desired light-blocking effect.

Studio Speaker Installation
We also helped our client by installing studio speakers in the corners of his rooms.
Painting
The owner wanted a unique purple color for the kitchen, which was difficult to find locally. After extensive searching, we located this specific American brand color. We also painted the living room in a gray shade with a hint of lavender as requested by our client.

Ordering King Size Bed and Free Delivery
We assisted our client in ordering a high-quality king-size bed for the master bedroom, leveraging our industry connections to secure a great deal with complimentary pillows and bed sheets. We delivered the bed and accessories after thoroughly cleaning the apartment.
Conclusion
Throughout this project, our team overcame numerous challenges to deliver high-quality results. From designing and installing custom motorized shades to handling intricate interior tasks, we ensured that every detail met the client's expectations.
