Your choice of window treatments can instantly transform any room in your home. from rich velvet curtains that give the impression of wrapping you up in a place to botanical prints that bring the outside within. Since curtains are an investment, it’s critical to think about the look you want to create when selecting a design that will last for many years. See our recommendations and suggestions below. Let’s take living room curtain ideas for an instant style update from here.
Compare the color of your curtains to the color of your wall
A wonderful approach to drawing attention to window coverings is to contrast the color of the wall with the curtain in the living room. To truly pull the eye to the window, use a total color difference. Alternatively, choose two slightly different colors for a cozier vibe. You can use velvet in Teal to create a contrast between light and dark shades of teal for the walls and curtains in this living room. A sofa and rug provide additional tonal components, giving the impression that the room is completely enclosed, resulting in a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
Floral Focus
Classic floral living room curtains are a classic window treatment option that never goes out of style and infuses a scheme with nostalgia and comfort. Particularly useful for creating a vintage vibe are faded florals, like this classic English leading design in Strawberry Punnet called Tresco, which is based on an archival fabric. This living room feels more casual because of the way the drape falls into a puddle on the floor.
Create the illusion of more space with floor-length curtains
The curtain can be used to visually manipulate the size of a window, whereas floor-to-ceiling curtains imply a full-height window. To make a window appear taller than the living room itself, raise the curtain rod nearly to the ceiling and hang a blind behind it. Draw the blind down to the point where it meets the windowpane to deceive the eye into thinking the window is taller than it actually is. This dramatic decor is complemented by the use of Wild in Midnight, a luxurious velvet.
Select a pelmet
Another helpful tool for giving the impression of height is a pelmet. To maximize the amount of natural light entering the space, place it above the window frame to give the impression that the window is taller. This living room’s classical elements work nicely with a pelmet that is shaped to beautifully showcase the vibrant Mandai linen design in primrose. Ideal for framing an overview of a garden.
Utilize banded drapes to experiment with size
A band can be utilized to introduce additional color into the scheme and give the curtains in the living room a stylish, personalized sense. To add crucial detail, think about adding a thick border to the top or bottom of the curtains or go with a trim.
Make sure your fabric is right
The variety of materials available is amazing, ranging from cozy wools to silks, pieces of cotton to linens, so it’s crucial to think about the style you want for your bedroom or living room curtains. Which kind of effect-more formal or informal—do you want? Which type of curtains would you prefer—thick ones for added insulation in your house or sheer ones for privacy and light penetration? Sienna boucle drapes nicely and adds a wonderful sense of relaxation to a space. Textural fabrics are a wonderful complement to a neutral scheme. a casual, adaptable style that works well in both classic and modern living rooms.
Experiment extensively with patterns
Using large-scale patterned drapes in your living room can be a great way to bring attention to the window wall and frame a view. Using patterned velvet, like our sophisticated On The River in Marine from our Omega Prints line, adds a healthy dose of glamor and richness. The paneled walls and the inky blue background of the cloth combine to create a cozy and charming concept.
