Good windows require a good combination of curtains to highlight the style of the home and create a harmonious and charming residential atmosphere
There are many things to pay attention to when designing windows, have you noticed them all?
Curtain design, size first
Curtain design must first consider the size of the curtains.
Curtains in small rooms should be of a relatively simple style, so as not to make the space appear narrower
due to the complexity of the curtains. For large bedrooms, a more generous, elegant and refined style should be adopted.
In terms of curtains, the width of the curtain is generally about 10 cm wider than the window on both sides. The bottom
should depend on the style of the curtain. Short curtains are also suitable. It should be about 20 centimeters longer than the bottom line of the window sill; floor-to-ceiling window curtains should generally be 2 to 3 centimeters from the ground.
For simple curtains, such as venetian blinds, roller blinds, etc., the width and height should fit the window, and professional personnel will come to measure and customize them.
Choose curtains according to the window type
There are many types of windows, and the style of curtains must also be suitable for the window type.
1. Ordinary windows: can be matched according to home style and personal preferences, including cloth curtains, venetian blinds, roller blinds
, Roman blinds, organ blinds, vertical blinds, and wooden blinds. Can.
2. Bay windows: Bay windows are also called "bay windows" because the window shape extends outwards. They are often found in bedrooms, study rooms, children's rooms, etc. In order to protect the window sill from strong sunlight, you can consider a double-layer curtain design.
The window screen can be attached to the glass window to enclose one layer, and the curtain cloth hangs down to the ground. Organ curtains are also a good choice
because they can be opened and closed up and down. While covering the bottom of the window, enough light can also penetrate from the top.
It can be said that it is used on bay windows. is very suitable.
3. Floor-to-ceiling windows: Floor-to-ceiling windows are often used in living rooms and bedrooms, and generally use curtains with gauze effect
curtains. For example, you can choose white or beige fabric curtains with gauze curtains; you can also choose Lomeiya silk drape curtains or Bariya vertical gauze curtains, with curtains wrapped in tulle. Create a transparent and romantic effect with gauze curtains
It can also block sunlight to protect privacy.
4. High window: generally refers to a cross-floor window, which is about 5 to 6 meters from the top to the ground. The upper and lower windows are usually integrated into one.
They often appear in villas and hotel lobbies. The style of curtains for high windows should highlight the majesty and luxury of the room and window type. The effect will be better with window curtains, and the layers of curtains should also be rich.
The overall coordination of curtain colors is the most important
The color of curtains should match the tones of the walls, floors and furnishings. The following are some specific
matching suggestions:
1. The walls are white or light ivory, the furniture is yellow or gray, and the curtains should be orange.
2. The walls are light blue, the furniture is light yellow, and the curtains should be white with blue patterns.
3. The walls are light lake green, the furniture is yellow, green or brown, and the curtains are preferably medium green or grass
green.
4. In spring and autumn, medium colors are suitable, such as beige, light dark green, withered yellow, pink, etc.
5. In summer, white, beige, light gray, sky blue, lake green and other colors are preferred.
6. In winter, brown, dark green, purple, dark coffee and other colors are suitable.
Contrast colors are a popular decoration style nowadays. It is undeniable that the appropriate use of contrasting colors can make the style of a room more interesting and rich. However, the color of curtains must still be consistent with the color of the room.
If the interior decorations, furniture, and interior walls are all bright and different, then use contrasting colors
Curtains will make the color of the room more cluttered and easily cause visual fatigue.
The appropriate curtain pattern is the best
Curtain fabric patterns are mainly divided into abstract and natural types. Abstract type, that is, geometric type, such as square, circle, stripes and other shapes. Natural type, or material shape, such as animals, plants, landscapes and other patterns
In addition, the curtain pattern should not be inclined, otherwise it will make people feel tilted. Tall rooms should choose horizontal patterns to make the space proportions more coordinated.
Home curtains, no matter what pattern they are, should not be too complicated and should be simple. I like the Hunter printed roller blinds that I use at home. It is said that every pattern is painted by hand. Each dandelion has a different posture. It feels like the flowers are not printed on the curtains, but fluttering gently, which is very dynamic.
Curtain fabrics, choose materials according to style
Curtains of different textures will produce different decorative effects. If you like the elegant and luxurious style, you can choose velvet
, satin, jacquard fabric and lace decoration. If you like a cozy style, gingham, corduroy, and homespun cloth
are good choices. If you prefer a simple style, you can choose simple curtains.
Seasonal factors should also be considered when choosing curtain fabrics. Summer curtains should be made of soft materials that are breathable and cool, such as LOMIYA silk curtains or BALIA vertical gauze curtains.
In winter, it is advisable to use thick curtains, such as accordion curtains. The hollow honeycomb structure can have a thermal insulation effect, making them dense and warm. Printed curtains are suitable for all seasons, especially
spring. If you find it troublesome to consider the four seasons, you might as well use double-layer curtains, which can be used alternately according to different seasons and light
.
In addition, the curtain fabric should not be too smooth and shiny, otherwise it will easily reflect light and irritate the eyes.
Different areas require special attention to curtain design
The selection of curtains with different functions should also be different.
The living room and dining room should be easy to open and close and have good privacy; the bedroom should be fully protected from outside light and noise.
You can choose thick materials, such as organ curtains. The honeycomb design can block light and reduce noise, so it is a good choice. For bathrooms and kitchens, you should choose materials that are practical and easy to wash, such as venetian blinds.
The style is also Strive to be simple and smooth; if the light transmittance of the study room is good, you can consider Bariya vertical gauze curtains. The gauze curtains
The material has good light transmittance, and the elegant and beautiful design helps to relax, relax and think.
This should be explained in place
