Actual ideas for drapery windows in the hall in 2018

The slogan of the new season in the field of interior design is "simplicity and convenience in everything." The desire to create minimalist, but at the same time comfortable and functional interiors is the main task of modern designers. Simple solutions and forms, laconic execution in literally every detail of the interior, the use of ergonomic layout and taking into account personal comfort - the concept of the design of the living room 2018. Window decorations all these aspects, of course, touched. Even in the halls decorated in the classical style, we no longer see luxurious multi-tiered draperies using a large amount of decor. The most usual curtains of the traditional model, but with the use of expensive fabrics consisting mainly of natural raw materials, become a qualitative alternative.

Many designers, in pursuit of minimalist solutions for the design of living spaces, offer us to abandon textiles on the windows, advocating for the unhindered distribution of sunlight in the room. Of course, the natural illumination of space is one of the most important aspects of the design of a modern room. But such a choice is not always comparable with the realities of our life. Many rooms need protection from the sun (located on the south side of the building), the premises of the first floor need to be protected from prying eyes, and the thin curtain of curtains is not always able to cope with the tasks. Curtains are also necessary for many design projects of living rooms for reasons of tradition - in our country, the most popular way to drapery windows is a tandem of thin curtains and blackout curtains.

Of course, fashion trends in the field of interior design are important for choosing one or another element of the actual design of the living room or hall. But there are many factors that influence the choice of textiles for drapery windows, in addition to fashion:

size and shape of window openings;
parameters of the room itself, its area, shape, level of natural light;
the color palette of interior decoration in general and the color scheme of wall decoration in particular;
design of basic furniture (upholstery of upholstered furniture - sofas, armchairs);
your desire to create with the help of textiles on the windows a certain accent (color or texture) or harmoniously fit the colors of the curtains into the created image of the room;
own idea of the beauty and practicality of the interior of the living room or hall.

Popular models of curtains for the hall

No matter how many new options for fabrics, colors and prints designers offer us, no matter what the latest methods of attaching canvases to cornices are invented, the most common option for decorating windows in the living room was and remains the traditional model of curtains. Vertical canvases, flowing down from the ceiling to the floor in even folds, are a universal version of textile for windows that can not only protect the room from the sun and prying eyes, but also decorate the living room and effectively complete its image.

Traditional curtains

The traditional curtain model is universal not only in that it is suitable for window openings of any shape and size, but also in the possibility of using it in a wide variety of stylistic directions of interior decoration. Only at first glance, nothing original can be invented in these simple forms of vertical canvases. Traditional curtains can be attached in different ways to the cornice, decorated and combined with other models of curtains or curtains.

A tandem of thin, translucent tulle (usually white) and dense, plain curtains is the most popular way to drapery windows in Russian living rooms. It is not surprising that this design technique has been relevant for many seasons. Thin curtains help to slightly hide what is happening in the room and pleasantly scatter sunlight, and with the help of dense curtains, you can completely isolate yourself from the street and natural light, create the desired atmosphere of the hall.

One of the popular and common ways of attaching traditional curtains to the cornice is the use of eyelets. We are talking about eraser or metal rings, framing the holes in the curtain fabric, in their upper part. Eyelets are strung directly on the cornice or using ties (the first option is most often used). In addition to the convenience of using curtains on the grommets, the canvases move smoothly along the ledge, this method of fastening is original, but at the same time it looks modern and concise and allows you to create evenly distributed, falling folds of fabric.

It is possible to string curtains directly on the cornice without an intermediary in the form of eyelets. When processing the edges of the canvases in the upper part, a gap of fabric is built up, into which window drapery can easily pass. If you need to remove the curtains from the eaves for washing, it will be enough to remove the knob and pull off the canvas. The method of attachment is less expensive than the use of eyelets, but it does not make it possible to create uniform vertical folds.

It is not more difficult to use curtains on cross over loops. This method of fastening brings some relaxation to the image of window drapery and the entire room as a whole.

If we place the curtains of the traditional model from the ceiling to the floor (it is better to literally lie on the floor than there is a gap between the lower edge of the paintings and the floor covering), this helps to visually increase the height of the room. And for the living room, this aspect is especially important - you want to give the room monumentality, spaciousness, even with very small dimensions of the room. Therefore, in modern design projects of family rooms, "hidden" curtains are used - the canvases are attached to the ceiling, hiding behind the skirting that encloses the suspended structure.

Another, not lost popularity way of fastening curtains of a traditional model is using a lambrequin. Initially, a lambrequin - a narrow strip of fabric located in the upper part of the window, was used to hide defects in the window opening or decoration, cornice or fastening. Today, the lambrequin carries an exclusively decorative load. It helps to effectively complete the image of window drapery, to make the textile design more presentable. In modern design projects of living rooms, you can often find a laconic execution of this textile element - a rectangle of fabric with a rigid frame.

Roman curtains

The second most popular types of curtains, actively used in creating modern design projects of living rooms, were Roman paintings. These are vertical rectangles of fabric with a width equal to the size of the window, assembled into evenly distributed horizontal folds manually or using an electric drive.

Roman curtains can be frameless - the fabric is collected in smooth, slightly sagging folds, or have a rigid frame - in this case, the canvases and horizontal folds resemble fabric blinds in terms of clarity and design rigor.

Roman curtains perfectly match the minimalist moods of modern design. The minimum amount of fabric used, laconic appearance, the ability to use various color and textured solutions and ease of use are the main advantages of this type of curtain. On small windows of rooms with modest dimensions, Roman curtains look incredibly organic.

The color palette of curtains for a modern room

With a wide variety of colors for textiles for windows, there are three main options for drapery:

curtains act as a color accent, a bright (dark) spot that clearly stands out from the general background of the interior;
the paintings merge with the general color scheme of the living room;
textiles appear in a color scheme with any element of the design of the hall (most often it is upholstery of upholstered furniture, carpet or other interior items).

The following factors will influence the choice of color (print) of the textile design of windows:

living room size;
natural light, the location of the room relative to the cardinal points (is there a need to protect the hall from sunlight);
design style and color palette of the space as a whole;
execution of wall decoration - plain or with a pattern;
color scheme of the main interior items - sofas and armchairs, storage systems (if any).

Actual color solutions

Truly universal color schemes for the execution of curtains for the hall include all the shades of white. Light tone always brings some freshness, festivity and even solemnity to the interior of the room. If light curtains adorn the windows in the living room with a similar color scheme, then the overall picture of the room will be harmonious, but the design of the window openings will be slightly “blurry”. If light curtains are placed against the background of the walls, at least two shades darker or finishes with a pattern - the image of the room will be more spectacular, more original.

The neutral colors of window drapery, which can organically fit into almost any living room environment, include the following tones:

various shades of light beige;
gray color and all the variety of its shades;
sand tones;
many pastel shades (heavily diluted with a white tone of blue, peach, pink, pistachio, mint).

In another plane of color solutions for curtains in a modern living room, there are dark, deep and complex tones - from almost black to dark blue, granite tones, the color of dark chocolate, dark khaki, the tone of overripe plum, and a deep dark indigo. Dark curtains create a certain dramatic mood in the interior. But such design decisions look more organically in spacious rooms with large windows - dark curtains can visually make a small room even more modest in volume.

If we talk about curtains with a pattern, then the trend is an abstract and geometric print. Designers do not recommend choosing a fabric with a pattern that uses more than three colors (or their shades) - even in the use of colors of window textiles, moderation and conciseness are manifested.
