Living room curtains: how to choose the style, colour and size

Curtains are an important element of living room decoration, and choosing the right ones can make all the difference to the look and feel of the room. Here are some tips on how to choose curtains for your living room.

Choose the right fabric. Fabric is an important element to consider when choosing a blind. If the living room is a bright room and needs less darkness, opt for light and transparent fabrics, such as cotton or linen. If, on the other hand, the living room needs more darkness or privacy, choose thicker and darker fabrics, such as velvet or damask.

Consider the amount of light. Curtains can be used to filter or block light, depending on the need. If the living room is well lit and needs less light, opt for thicker and darker fabrics, such as velvet or damask. If, on the other hand, the living room needs more light, choose lighter and more transparent fabrics, such as cotton or linen.

Choose the right colour. The colour of the curtains can make all the difference in the appearance of the living room. If you want your curtains to be the focal point of the room, opt for a vibrant, eye-catching colour. If, on the other hand, you want the curtains to blend in with the rest of the decor, choose a more neutral colour.

Consider the length of the curtains. The length of the curtains depends on the style of the living room and the effect you want to achieve. If you want the curtains to touch the floor, opt for a standard length. If, on the other hand, you only want the curtains to reach the window or windowsill, choose a shorter length.

Consider the opening of the blinds. Blinds can be opened differently depending on your needs. For example, packet blinds can be opened only part way, letting light in but providing privacy. Wave blinds, on the other hand, can be opened fully, for a more airy effect.

In order to choose the most suitable type of curtain for each room, you can also rely on professionals, such as the Isidera Team, who will create completely customised renders and designs for you to enhance the rooms of your home with the fabric, style and colours.
