Choosing night curtains

Choosing curtains for any room, some customers forget that, in addition to aesthetic appeal, products must perform their basic functions. Curtains are necessary not only to decorate windows and limit the amount of sunlight entering the room. In addition, they should close households from prying eyes from the street. How to choose the night curtains and what you need to know, will be discussed further.

Night curtains are made from different textiles. As a rule, it is opaque, it may differ in the origin of the threads, their thickness and density of the panels themselves. It is density that is the main difference between such products and models of decorators, which only decorate windows, but often are nothing more than a tribute to fashion, without bearing the practical load.Night curtains are often made from textiles with the addition of synthetic fibers that increase their resistance to fading.

These curtains are hung on windows, balcony doors and even doorways connecting two adjacent rooms. Often they are distinguished by massiveness and look presentable. Models for windows well limit the sunlight, which allows to preserve freshness inside the dwelling in the heat, because along with the sun it usually enters the room and heat. In addition to the fact that the night curtains hide the room from prying eyes, they block the cold air coming from the windows. Particularly dense curtains, though only slightly, reduce the noise coming from the street.

Today, for the production of night curtains using different textiles. Each type of material has its own characteristics and aesthetic qualities, as well as the nuances of care and practicality:

• For example, the atlas has a brilliant texture and low density, it looks impressive, but can give clues.
• Flax is natural and pleasing to the eyes, easy to wash, but it is heavily wrinkled and not used in every direction of style.
• Brocade looks bright, the texture is quite extraordinary, which does not allow the use of such curtains in the classic or modern design directions.
• Tapestry stands out heavy weight, such panels can be hung, for example, in the living room of the Baroque style. In the classic or modern directions of design, they will look inappropriate.

• Velvet is a peculiar but luxurious fabric. It is possible to decorate with such curtains not each interior, as well as not each room of the dwelling.
• Jacquard is somewhat thinner than a tapestry, such material also requires a special approach to the style and cannot be used, for example, in the design of the windows of a children's room.
• Polyester is chosen for modern interior compositions. With its density and synthetic basis, it does not wrinkle, keeps its shape well and tolerates washing.
• Among other materials of which night curtains are made, cotton, velveteen, taffeta and gabardine can be mentioned.

Night curtains due to the density of the material used need strong fixings. They, in turn, can be hidden or not, which depends on the design of the ceiling.Demanded varieties today are panels with lambrequins and options for grommets. Both those and others are popular with buyers approximately equally, while they are not limited in the color palette.

Due to the wide range offered to the attention of buyers, you can choose products based on your own taste preferences and the budget available for the purchase. In this case, you can pick up products for different rooms of the home, including the kitchen, nursery, bedroom, living room, study and home library.

This season, the design of night curtain designs is turned towards functionality. Today, fashion trends have moved away from the usual multi-fold folds and draperies. If this is a model with a lambrequin, then it is made of rigid material and fixed on both sides. Such curtains look not only fresh, but also stylish, the design is devoid of massiveness. The bottom can be classic, wavy or asymmetrical.

Depending on the type of window, it can be decorated with a spectacular model on one side. If necessary, such a panel can darken the room, hide it from prying eyes from the street. If you choose a concise version with ties, it will look harmonious with a pleated panel or transparent tulle. The models on the grommets together with the ombre curtains look original.

Fringe, the abundance of brushes today is not as popular as the usual coattails and wide strings. Not only do they visually complicate the interior, but also conceal the space of the room. Products with edging or tricolor panels on the rings look much more interesting. The so-called photo curtains, models with 3D drawing are also in demand. By the way, they can be successfully used for children's rooms, and even provide for the manufacture of drawings to order.

The effect of color on a person is a scientifically proven fact. The choice of shade can be made, starting from:

• furniture colors;
• sofa upholstery;
• tones of wall cladding;
• specific accessories or other furnishing details.

At the same time, it is important to take into account the fact that one and the same color can be liked by someone, while for others it can be associated with discomfort.For example, purple and blue are refreshing, such curtains are good for the young age group, but in older households they can develop depression. Pink is good for the baby's room, such curtains act on men and boys depressingly if they hang, say, in the living room. Lilac tone is good for creative people, blue helps to relax and pacify.

A universal tone is light brown: these curtains can be hung in any room. If you want lightness, you should look at the light shades of green. For example, pistachio or olive color helps to maintain harmony, they are suitable for people of different age categories. Black and dark red are considered difficult to read.

Dark colors visually age the interior, making it heavy. In addition, dark night curtains have the feature to put rigid boundaries of the room, which immediately makes the room limited and small. This also affects the height of the ceiling: it is visually reduced.

Those who are tired of stereotypes, choose simple models, allowing the curtains not to stand out, but to complement the chosen stylistic design decision. This approach does not deprive the curtains of expressiveness, but contributes to the creation of ease of perception of space. Today it is important that you feel the air in the room, this explains the conciseness of the cut.

For example, monochrome models can soften brick pattern of wall cladding, masonry or Venetian stucco plaster. It would be strange with a complex texture of the walls to hang complex models of night curtains, and even with its own pattern. Such an approach is tasteless, it is old-fashioned. The print on the curtains looks much more interesting if the walls of the room are plain.

Print size is important to correlate with the dimensions of the room itself:

• For example, choosing night curtains for the kitchen, it is worthwhile to give preference to light colors of the palette with a simple pattern or without it. The diversity of paintings can give the kitchen the appearance of confusion.In this case, small household items in this room should be covered in the boxes of the headset. If we talk about the subject of the picture, then it can be a small-sized cell, a pale broad stripe, and wavy patterns.
• Products for the living room can be more variable, however, also obeying the chosen design style. For example, curtains with an embossed pattern on the theme of flowers, various monograms, stripes are relevant for the hall. For such rooms, models with geometric prints and vegetation are appropriate. Curtains on one side look better when not burdened with a pattern. Their decoration will be transparent or translucent tulle, which just may have a pattern.

• Options for the office need rigor. Here we are not talking about flowers, circles, rings, complex interweaving patterns, superimposed on one another. Ideally - plain canvases of simple cut.
• For the nursery, light and simple drawings or plain curtains on the grommets are needed. Do not load this room styles with draperies and numerous folds. Laconic curtains will look much more interesting against the background of lights and wallpapers with various animals, flowers, butterflies and other prints. Curtains with a small stripe are excluded: they can create ripples in the eyes.The cage is also not needed: monophonic products will look beautiful against the background of ombre tulle with a smooth transition from one color to another and embroidery.

If you start from the style, you should take note: the diversity does not paint the design, and especially its abundance. If you want the night curtains to look especially, their color should be soft, muffled, at the same time identical or related to one or more furnishing details. Even in boho and avant-garde, bright multi-colored curtains will not look beautiful.

For Provence, you can choose a floral print, but at the same time cut the panels should be as simple as possible. If we talk about grunge, then it is quite simple rectangular canvases. Pompousness can be useful in the classics: this is the case when draperies are not superfluous.
