Modern interior designers often create projects in which windows are closed with roller shutters or blinds. Sometimes it seems that such a room is devoid of comfort and domestic warmth. Therefore, most housewives want their windows in their house to be decorated with textile blinders and curtains.
Window decoration curtains in the living room
In the new season, it is customary to design the interior of the living room as concisely as possible. Minimalism comes through in everything. Including in the decoration of windows. The use of this style should not reduce the feeling of comfort from being in the room.
Classic style is still more in demand for the living room. It is enough to decorate the window with flowing curtains and tulle, which will fall in pronounced deep folds. This is the easiest way to design. Portieres are better to choose monophonic. This option is considered the most popular in the current season.
The combination of muted colors of curtains with snow-white translucent tulle behind them looks great. If you want to use accessories, then designers advise to stop at the side clips and not to overload the window with anything else.The original move will be an increase in the number of layers of fabric to 3-4. It will look unbanal and modern.
The opposite of the previous option would be to use only one curtain for the window. This option is suitable for the room where there are two or more windows on the same wall. Two drapes of different colors that adorn one window also look impressive. You can use on each side of the window 2 portieres of bright contrasting shades.
If the windows do not go straight out, then air tulle is enough. Light shades will expand the space and bring the atmosphere of lightness. In the new season do not use pelmets. But those who can not move away from years of proven practice, it is advisable to decorate with lambrequins only rooms with high ceilings. Even in this case, the decorative part should not be wide and unduly lush. Brushes and numerous folds are generally excluded.
The concepts of modern design correspond to the curtains on the grommets - decorative metal rings. These mounts themselves are decoration and make the interior unusual. You can diversify the appearance of the windows by painting the dense part where the rings are attached, in a contrasting color. It is better to match the grommets to the tone of the main part of the curtains, and to make the upper part of the color of any large interior detail
- walls;
- ceiling;
- furniture;
- carpet;
- decorative textiles and other things.
If the curtains are variegated, the grommets should merge with one of the shades on the fabric. An alternative would be matte metal rings that do not attract attention.
For the living room, you can use Roman curtains in frame or frameless modification. These curtains go down just below the window sill, and if necessary, going up into elegant folds. They can be used both separately and in combination with long curtains. Such models are monophonic and color. The latter are combined only with single long curtains. Roman curtains themselves are an ornament. It is recommended to select them in harmony with the rest of the textiles in the room.
Also for window decoration in the living room are suitable:
- Austrian curtains;
- muslin;
- Japanese panels;
- roller shutters;
- curtains thread;
- jalousie.
The windows in the bedroom
We can say that all those window designs that are listed above are suitable for the bedroom. The only clarification will be that the curtains in the bedroom should complement the atmosphere of peace and tranquility. Most of all this moment concerns the choice of color.
Also on the atmosphere can affect the shape of the canvas. Better to choose soft lines and curves. They visually "calm down" sharp corners, as well as clear lines of the window opening and objects nearby. If the room has low ceilings, the curtains in the floor and numerous assemblies only exacerbate the situation.
In the bedroom should penetrate the light of the sun. To do this, one of the canvases of multi-layer curtains should be transparent air tulle. It will help to make the interior more gentle and romantic. To limit the access of light if necessary, it is recommended to use blackout blinds. They can quietly hang on the window and, if necessary, be used for their intended purpose.
In the bedroom you need to pay special attention to the colors of the curtains. If the room has a modest size, motley textiles will only create an additional pile of textures. The ideal option would be plain shades of soothing shades: beige, blue, gently green, pale yellow, pink and others. If desired, you can add passion with the help of deep shades of burgundy, cosmos, emerald.
The use of additional accessories in this season is not welcome. The exception will be minimalist decorated cornices, hinges, cords and eyelets. All of them are of practical importance, concurrently becoming a decor.
Textiles for kitchen windows
For window decoration in the kitchen, you can also use the previously cited ideas. At the same time, kitchen textiles are subject to increased requirements in terms of practicality.In this room, like in no other room, the minimalist style and simple forms will be relevant.
Basic requirements for the design of kitchen windows:
- ease of care;
- access of light from the street;
- optimal length.
The last point is worth considering in more detail. Long curtains in the kitchen take place only in the case when the kitchen is spacious enough. It is important that there is free space in front of the window with long curtains. If in front of the window is a dining group or other large piece of furniture, then you should stop the choice on a shortened version of the curtains. It is also better to hang short curtains on the window, which is located near the work surface. This is associated with elemental safety and the risk of getting a beautiful cloth stained.
Universal recommendations for choosing curtains
Curtains should be chosen under the previously formed interior. They should be the last accent in the design of the premises. A room with windows to the south is recommended to decorate with curtains in cold shades. Golden, orange, terracotta, beige colors look great on the north side. Ideal curtains are matched in one color with the walls, but a few shades darker or lighter. This option will decorate the compact kitchen. A more spacious room can be decorated with contrasting to the wallpaper curtains.
The smaller the room, the lighter the curtains should be. Massive curtains will decorate only a spacious hall. Eaves will help to increase height of ceilings. Having no experience in curtain design, it is better to choose fabrics of natural origin and simple shapes. Complicated pattern on the curtains is appropriate only for solid walls.
Properly decorated glass will transform the interior of any room. To choose not even have to connect professional designers. Enough to examine the proposed recommendations.
