Features of using curtains

Several basic nuances:

  • To visually expand the room, it is appropriate to use light, lightweight and flowing fabrics, such as veils or organza.
  • Curtains of a dark and deep shade will help to correct the disproportionate width of the room.
  • Interior canvases with a small print will visually expand the spatial boundaries, and products with large patterns, on the contrary, will narrow them.
  • In small rooms, it is not advisable to use heavy and complex curtain compositions with draperies.

Options for using curtains for openings

Two ways of using:

  • Instead of a door. Canvases used instead of a door are more decorative than functional. They do not overload the decor, give the room a more free look and make it much more comfortable. Symmetrically or asymmetrically picked up interior curtains will not impede free passage.
  • On the door. This placement is especially suitable for door structures with glazing. In this case, curtains will help to close off unnecessary views and make the environment more personal and secluded.
