Your repair is still quite fresh, the furniture has not yet served its purpose and has not had time to go out of fashion, and in the room you already want to change something? In such cases, psychologists strongly advise updating the interior, believing that this has a beneficial effect on well-being. You can rearrange, change the picture on the wall or cute baubles on the shelf or change the textile design - bedspreads, rugs, rugs and, of course, curtains. Women usually do this with pleasure, because curtains are a dress for windows, and any clothes should be in harmony with the whole appearance, in this case with the interior of the room. It is desirable that they also meet all the fashion trends of the season. What should be modern curtains, designers say.
What to look for when choosing: fashionable styles and trends
Modern fashion for textiles in the interior is democratic and allows the use of various styles of window openings. However, leading designers adhere to the trends of minimalism, reinforcing a sense of freedom and spaciousness. You also need to observe the basic requirement of style - curtains must be combined with the interior solution of the entire room in color, shape and texture of the fabric. To make the window design look modern and fashionable, curtains should visually increase the size of the room, the height of the ceilings and cause a feeling that the whole room is filled with light and air.
Modern window decoration is distinguished by the absence of frills, ruffles, sparkles and small details in the decorations. The fittings are relatively large and of original shape. Lambrequins, succumbing to the general direction, turned into a laconic box, behind which fastenings are hidden. In the absence of lambrequins, large massive grommets are used. At the same time, modern curtains on grommets descend to the floor in large, even folds.
If you decide to use the hooks, choose a stylish metal, which is attached to the wall. Grips should be made in the same style with grommets and a cornice.
Minimalism this season is combined with eco-style, adding its own restrictions on the choice of shapes and colors of window dresses. Hi-tech is also in fashion - as a business card of megacities. Remaining in the trend of minimalism, it adds a touch of gloss and understatement to the interior. The Japanese style remains the most vivid representative of minimalism. He brought curtains into the modern interior and their variety - Japanese, consisting of sliding cloths or mats.
Professionals in window decoration are advised to choose natural fabrics: linen, cotton, bamboo. Blended fabrics with synthetic additives are quite acceptable - they last longer, burn out less and are easier to wear. Textured fabrics with non-strands, large spinning, reminiscent of matting will look stylish in a modern interior.
The color scheme should correspond to the spirit of eco-style - natural colors and shades are in fashion. The actual colors of coffee, terracotta, cinnamon, natural shades of green, pastel yellow and all the nuances of beige: cream, milk, coffee with milk.Energetic hi-tech prefers black and white or all shades of gray with bright contrasting splashes of lilac, turquoise, burgundy.
General rules when choosing a color palette are as follows: the smaller and darker the room, the lighter the tone. Let's try to apply all these recommendations to the living room - a cozy place for friendly gatherings and quiet family conversations.
Curtains in the living room in a modern style: looking for your option
Curtains in the living room play a more decorative role than a utilitarian one. Although in any case they fulfill their direct duties, regulating the flow of light and hiding all family secrets from prying eyes. To create a soulful home atmosphere, conducive to unhurried conversations with tea parties, modern curtains should be a cozy addition to the existing atmosphere.
To comply with this condition and stay in fashion, designers recommend the use of soft pastel colors, harmonizing in color with the entire interior. For a large living room, you can choose dark curtains in chocolate or chestnut colors. The overall color scheme will be complete if the palette is supplemented with cream-colored walls, the furniture is slightly darker or lighter - walnut or white and with two or three touches to match the curtains. It can be a picture in a frame of natural dark wood, a ceramic vase or a carpet on the floor.
Designers advise to revitalize the situation to dilute plain accessories with a pattern. It can be on curtains, wallpaper or carpet, but not on all elements of the situation at once. Completely monophonic solution makes the interior frozen and inanimate. Prints on curtains this season are laconic, reminiscent of Japanese engravings. For hi-tech, abstraction or stylized flowers and objects reminiscent of the work of impressionist artists are perfect.
The curtains in the modern living room are mounted almost under the ceiling. Their even deep folds should touch the floor, resembling antique clothes or columns. Modern curtain rods should fit into the interior in color and style, or hide behind a lambrequin, which this season resembles a rectangular box.
Rolled curtains and their variations - Roman and day-night blinds, gained great popularity in the traditions of minimalism. They can be mounted on a wall, ceiling or sash, have a closing box or be open, pull tightly on a window opening or hang down freely. There are many varieties; this season, roller blinds replace tulle curtains. They can be supplemented with tight curtains or left to solo. Rolshtora "day-night" successfully replace all other types, finely adjusting the degree of illumination of the room and visibility from the outside. They can be equipped with a control panel and a light sensor, leaving all the worries about opening and closing automation.
Modern short curtains in the kitchen
The curtains described above are ideal for a kitchen of any size, compactly closing the window opening and not taking up too much space. It should be noted that from the point of view of fire safety, shutters are also the best choice for a room with an open fire or a hot electric stove. A common cause of fires is curtains fluttering over the fire, so modern curtains in a small kitchen or kitchen with a balcony should look just like that.
If the hostess of the kitchen gravitates to a more romantic setting, you should pay attention to the curtains in the style of "cafe". They are two strips of fabric collected on the drawstring. One at eye level, the other at the top of the window. For this type of curtains, bright colors are appropriate: cell, peas, flowers or fruits. Such curtains can charge a cheerful and joyful mood in the morning.
Choose curtains in the bedroom in a modern style
For curtains in the bedroom, you should choose only natural fabrics of calm colors.Muted natural tones will help to relax and leave all day cares behind the bedroom doorstep. The whole decor, including the textiles on the windows, should be conducive to comfort and relaxation. If you certainly want to decorate the windows with tulle, it is better to do it in the bedroom.
The best solutions when choosing the type of window clothes for the bedroom are:
- Japanese multi-layer expandable canvases, they will allow you to finely adjust the lighting;
- classic curtains that drape the window and wall all over;
- dense rolled, covering the entire window opening or their kind of "day-night".
The last two options can be combined, by day regulating the light with the help of shutters, and at night to supplement them with classic ones. By color, they can either coincide or be contrasting.
The combination of roller shutters with classics will look without fail on the balcony windows.
Rolshtora "day-night" is ideal for a children's bedroom, allowing the sun to flood the room during children's games and activities, and dimming it as much as possible while the baby is sleeping. Rolshtora fabric is impregnated with special antibacterial compounds and antistatic impregnation, which facilitates the care of them and does not allow dust to accumulate.
When the room is not rectangular
Interesting window designs can be thought up for attic rooms with sloping ceilings. The windows in such rooms are often located not vertically, but at an angle. For this type of window, roller blinds with fastening along the entire perimeter of the sash are perfect. They will not allow the fabric to move away from the window opening. If the windows are standard, and the room differs only in beveled ceilings, light thin draperies that openly and elegantly frame the windows will help balance the disharmonious asymmetry. Soft folds gathered in matching grips will smooth out uneven lines.
Curtains are not for windows
Studio apartments are very popular, but need zoning. And curtain screens here are very useful. This season, the screen looks like a Japanese sliding partition. It can block alcoves, a work area or a kitchen corner. Choose for her a dense light fabric that transmits light.
As we can see, modern trends in window design leave a lot of room for creativity and self-expression, allowing you to design them in an original and unique way, and without going beyond fashion trends. With a modern wide selection of fabrics, this will not be difficult, but it will bring a lot of joy from the cozy interior created by your own hands.
