The living room is rightfully considered the central place of the living space.
After all, this is where all the family members gather to spend time in a warm atmosphere.
The main events of home life also take place in this room. It is here that important decisions are made and various celebrations and receptions are held, says Yulia Tychino .
The design of the living room can be used to judge the preferences and tastes of the owners, so when developing the interior design of the room, you should take into account all even the most insignificant details. Do not forget about such an aspect of creating coziness and a comfortable environment as the design of curtains in the living room.
Sun protection
A well-thought-out curtain design should harmoniously combine aesthetics and functionality. This interior design element should, for example, regulate the natural lighting of the room.
Curtains should be made of thick fabric, so that if necessary, the room can be shaded. Ideal curtains allow you to achieve almost absolute light isolation of the living room.
If there is no need to shade the room, curtains made of thick material are beautifully gathered and secured.
Visually enlarge the room
By using curtains in the living room, you can create certain visual effects that will allow you to achieve better organization of the living space of this room. By means of curtains, you can create the illusion of increasing the size of the living room.
For this purpose, you should choose products made of translucent fabric. A similar effect can be achieved by decorating the window with curtains with horizontal stripes.
If the curtain fabric has a print with vertical stripes, this will help to create a visual increase in the height of the ceilings.
Choosing curtains for the living room
The design of curtains for the living room can be quite extraordinary. The products can be made from different fabrics, differing in a variety of shades and lushness of drapery.
The living room will appear completely transformed if a lambrequin (decorative drapery for the upper part of the window) is used when decorating the windows.
Although such decor looks attractive, it should be used with sufficient caution and special attention.
After all, if you use decorations ineptly, it’s easy to create a feeling of overload in the window opening, and in the entire living room.
When choosing curtains for a living room, you should consider the style of the existing interior and select a design in such a way that it does not create disharmony.
Today it is generally accepted that roller blinds are the best choice for a living room, made from a variety of materials, the colors of which will allow you to tastefully decorate the windows of any living room.
Curtains for the living room can have a modern or classic design, they should be implemented in the same style as the design and color of the curtains for the kitchen and the curtains in the children's room.
