Creative Draping manufacture and install bespoke drapes for all types of event environments and venues.
We have a deep knowledge of the fabrics we work with and understand the diverse effects that can be achieved with texture and lighting, as well as the practical demands of different environments. We also tailor-make the drapes to suit your venue space which ensures you have the highest quality finish.
Production
Making the drapes
Our dedicated seamstresses work to your specific requirements with incredible precision and craftsmanship – attention to detail is key.
We carefully select the finest materials to ensure that the finish of your wall or ceiling drapes is that of the highest standard.
We’re not afraid of experimenting and trying out new fabrics either! By using the latest materials, including bespoke tailor-made silk drapes, organza and velvets, we can achieve something truly exciting that will transform your venue.
All our materials are flame retardant and meet European flammability regulations.
Installation
We work with all types of clients in the UK and Europe, across a vast array of projects, from complex high impact installations in large temporary structures and arenas, to intricate work within exclusive wedding venues. We always ensure that our drapes are installed with sensitivity and to the highest standard, ensuring they will leave a long-lasting impression on your guests or delegates.
All our crew are fully certified in the equipment we use for construction as well as PASMA and IPAF certified. Method Statement, Risk Assessment and Public Liability are all supplied as standard to ensure the safety of your clients and our workforce.
Wall Installations
We can drape and build curtain walling wherever you require. Our freestanding wall drapes can be built anywhere and to any shape – using straight lines or even curved – due to the versatile nature of the pipe and drape system. The maximum trim height is 4.8m but for dizzier heights we use a truss that can be built or hung.
Ceiling Installations
We are always sensitive to the fabric of the building we are working with when installing ceiling drapes. We do not staple materials to the venue or mark the structure in any way – resulting in commissions by various listed buildings such as The Natural History Museum.
Marquees and Tents are never a problem – when it comes to fixing drapes to their ceilings and we have a large selection of rigging and styles to offer.

Outdoors
The great outdoors! We relish a challenge but recognise the logistical limitations of working outside. Our creative team therefore design installations that are weather-wary but still pack a punch!

Stages
We can erect a truss to give us the large-scale framework to work from – this can be used in conjunction with the lighting and sound equipment. Once established it can be dressed in a variety of exciting styles depending on what the brief dictates.
