Pros, Cons of Multilateral Curtains

Home Decoration Tips

When using combined elements, it is important to adhere to some general rules so that the house, apartment become really comfortable.

  1. Choose light materials in the room in which you spend the most time.
  2. Do not use products that differ sharply in texture.
  3. Choose a color so that it complements the main color of the room.

Two-color curtains for the kitchen are a great way to add brightness to a discreet and calm design option.

Whatever version of “hybrid” curtains you choose, your home will find a cheerful, comfortable atmosphere.

Colors

Choosing colors for curtains, you can combine:

  • contrasting colors characteristic of modern trends,
  • shades of one color scheme, often inherent in interiors in a classic style.

In other words, you either select the curtains for the colors that dominate the atmosphere, or you bring elements of the saturated colors present on the curtains into the room.

If window textiles do not duplicate the colors found in the interior, you may have a question “What to combine bright curtains with?”. In cases when you are not ready to give expressive colors to large objects such as a sofa or carpet, limit yourself to arranging small accents.

Most often, cushions sewn from the same fabrics as curtains are additions. But it can also be small objects - vases, candy canes, figurines, fringe on the tablecloth.

In addition to personal taste and preferences, the style of the room also affects the choice of colors for the curtains. For example, monophonic canvases of two different colors will be appropriate in the style of minimalism.

Laconic long curtains with easy drapery are versatile. Plain curtains balance classic interiors, where the main emphasis is exquisite furniture.

The combination of several monochrome curtains will organically look in many other directions: loft, pop art, modern, art deco, English, Roman, Chinese styles. Striped or checkered curtains are distinguished by the same wide application, which combine perfectly with plain canvases.

Floral prints are characteristic of classics, Provence, country and their modern incarnations. Abstract, futuristic images or pictures are inherent in ultramodern interiors, and monograms are usually associated with baroque, classic and rococo.

Two-color curtains will help to adjust the proportions of the room. However, to raise or expand walls, you can use a ceiling or wide cornice.

Curtains with a large picture visually bring the window closer, with a small one they move away. A light drawstring or a horizontal strip at the top of the curtain on the eyelets will expand the window opening, and the dark one will narrow it. Bright and warm tones eat up space, cold tones - on the contrary.

It is believed that curtains contrasting with walls and the general decor will be appropriate in the hall and in the kitchen. A calm, soothing tone a little lighter or darker than the walls are more suitable for a bedroom or a nursery.

This does not mean that you cannot do the opposite. Interior design, like fashion in general, is very controversial, as evidenced by these photos. It remains only to decide whether the curtains are accent or complement.

Tissue Combination

Having decided on the colors, you can proceed to the selection of material. The type, texture and density of the fabric depends on the style, purpose of the room and the required level of dimming. It is worth considering the reliability of the cornice, because dense fabrics are quite heavy. And if you intend to drape the curtains, this further narrows the choice, since not every fabric lies beautifully in folds.

Classic interiors are suitable for velvet, jacquard, brocade, country style - lace tulle, cotton, chintz, linen, and hi-tech is unimaginable without metallized threads and clear geometric lines.

If the curtains for the living room should be impressive, then the kitchen is more important indicator of endurance, resistance to odors, water and pollution.

There are several ways to connect fabrics for curtains:

  • horizontal - a horizontal additional strip is sewn to the main color,
  • vertical - the curtains are sewn to each other vertically, or the composition consists of unconnected paintings of different widths, and the narrower ones act as edging or pickups,
  • perimeter - a narrow border is sewn to the main canvas, which is often used in a modern style,
  • corset - fabric with lacing and ribbons sewn in the middle of the main fabric, expanding and tapering as it is pulled together.

Beautiful and practical window decoration will be double (double-sided) curtains. These are two fabrics that are sewn, for example, from shiny and dull fabric, which can be hung on either side. Contrast seamy material is opened with grabs, clips or magnets.

Combined curtains in two colors - short over long, sliding and Roman, curtains-threads and blinds - another way to combine fabrics.
You can combine materials using the same pattern or accessories. For example, Roman curtains will share a rich color with curtains with the help of pickups, fringes or frills.

Important: when combining different fabrics, make sure that they will look the same after washing - they will not stretch, they will not shrink and do not shed. Although in the latter case, you will get something like hand-made gradient curtains, think about buying ready-made ombre paintings.

And now it's time to move on to how the curtains of two colors will look in the living room, bedroom and other rooms of the house.

Agree, window decoration in the main room of the house should be the most spectacular. To do this, you have at your disposal:

  • saturated shades of green, orange, red, pink, purple in combination with each other, with white and other neutral tones,
  • compositions with lambrequins, de frill, ties, tassels, flounces and other luxurious accessories,
  • combinations of colored and plain curtains,

  • Crossed curtains and weave
  • asymmetric window decor, consisting of combinations of Japanese curtains, curtains on grommets and a short tulle sewn over dense canvases,
  • monochrome curtains of materials of different densities,
  • gradient curtains with two or more colors.
  • Here we will stop, because this list is endless and can be supplemented by your limitless imagination. Bold, unusual color combinations, manipulations with accessories and drapery, multifaceted and diverse compositions - these and other tricks will be suitable for the living room.

    If the game of contrasts and flashy colors contribute to communication and will be very useful in the room, then the curtains of two colors in the bedroom should be calmer.

    Bedroom

    Bliss, peace and quiet - these are exactly the associations that should cause the curtains in the rest room. Discreet, pastel colors have a calming effect on the psyche and contribute to relaxation.

    Delicate, airy fabrics - a veil, guipure, organza, and the finest linen - are ideal for decorating windows in the bedroom. Reliable protection against sunlight will be night curtains. Another option is combined models: tight roleta or Roman curtains with a tulle that performs an aesthetic function.

    The most modern solution that creates all the conditions for a comfortable sleep will be reflective blackout curtains. They consist of 3 layers, one of which reflects light, the other - heat, and the third - decorative.

    Spacious bedrooms are decorated with curtains with ruffles, fringe and lambrequins, and the windows of small rooms are best decorated with light tulle or cotton curtains. However, you can choose both that, and another, after all muslin and tulle are perfectly combined.

    Rules for combining 2 colors

    The main recommendations for combining colors:

    • It is necessary to choose the color of the curtains so that in the presence of contrast they still have something in common. For example, style, ornament or material. This rule will help create the right balance in the interior.
    • The combination of different shades of one color will become a classic option for any interior. It will look more calm and harmonious.
    • To identify the overall color and contrast, you can combine light colors with more saturated ones.

    Selection rules

    In the interior with any design decision, sooner or later the question arises of purchasing curtains. They will help someone get rid of the sun and heat. For others, they will become an excellent “shield”, help to hide from the eyes of strangers. Curtains will help some owners in the proper decoration of the room. Simple rules will help you choose and build a curtain set.

    Functional component

    There are many types and types of curtains. When choosing a suitable option, the first thing to do is decide on their purpose.

    They can perform several roles:

    • design element
    • a means of protection from sunlight and heat,
    • a means of protection from prying eyes in the evening.

    In the first case, paying attention when choosing makes sense only on relevance. Curtains should fit the rest of the design decision. In the second embodiment, the materials for the curtains should have a certain density and shape. In the third option, you need to think about a combination of a curtain kit. With an inattentive and hasty choice, the purchase will bring a lot of inconvenience. Curtains will turn out to be their favorites, which can perform several or all of the functions presented above. Two-tone curtains by this criterion will be an ideal option. With the right layout of matter, you can get the desired effect at low cost.

    Texture and density

    The choice of texture and density of the fabric is based on the tasks of the finished product. So, the texture and density of products to complete the design can be any. It is important to remember here that it is better to combine similar fabrics. They will respond equally to impacts and combine harmoniously. Over time, they will not warp and lose their appearance. In terms of density, it is better to opt for the middle option. The finished product will receive the effect of flowing and light fabric.

    In the case of protection from the sun and heat, it is better to opt for a sufficiently thin fabric with dense weaving of threads. Also, the fabric must be hardy. She should have a convenient and reliable mechanism. It is worthwhile to think about the fabric of dense, but light-transmitting weaving, if necessary, to protect the room from the eyes of passers-by. In this case, the landlord will not be in the dark.

    Shape and size

    The size and configuration of the finished product is limited by the imagination of the author. When choosing, it is worth considering the purpose, location and wishes of the landlord. So, in a small kitchen, long curtains made of thick fabrics will be inappropriate. In this regard, there are a number of recommendations. They are dictated by experience. So, to work with the windowsill, you should choose options with a length of up to the middle of the window or slightly lower. Otherwise, you can safely hang the floor-length products. The configuration may also include an open window sill or a combination of a long “lamella” on the balcony door and a short one on the balcony window. The canvas may have a cascade cut. This option is ideal for growing flowers and seedlings on the window.

    Color and style

    Modern production technologies offer the widest options for matter. The first thing you should think about is matching the curtains to the general design decision of the room. You should also choose the shape and color. In a situation with combined curtains, it makes sense to choose the appropriate combination of colors and the way of interaction between them. Experts advise to base your choice on the basic colors of the interior. Also, do not neglect the semantic content of the colors used. The right combination will help transform the room visually.

    The colors of the cold band expand the room. If there is not enough home comfort in the room, then you should choose one of the following variations: sand, cream, vanilla, beige, brown. The same purpose should be the use of yellow and orange, other warm shades. The colors of the pastel group bring peace, relaxation. Gray shades in any combination adjust to a serious mood.

    Ideal solutions include combinations based on contrasts:

    • black and gray
    • dark beige and blue
    • yellow and green
    • the color of chocolate and pistachio ice cream.

    A beautiful and neat approach is a combination of two close colors. Example: a dark blue edge with a light blue middle. It is worth remembering that colors can be combined both horizontally and vertically. Better based on the available characteristics of the room. For example, in a low room, two-color curtains with vertical division will look good. Options with horizontal stripes will make the room visually wider.

    When forming the final sketch, you should think about the popular arrangement of color accents. Designers advise highlighting the edges and bottom of the curtains with dark colors. Do not forget about the popular version of the combination of fabric with a pattern and fabric without it.

    Usually, one of the principles is taken as a basis in window design:

    In the first case, both colors of curtains are in the same color scheme. Usually these are two adjacent colors. In the second variant, colors are selected according to the principle of contrast. If we talk about style, now two options are in special demand: hi-tech and modern.

    The first features are characterized by the following features:

    • lack of decor,
    • angularity and directness,
    • the presence of the correct geometric images,
    • Modern fabrics with anti-reflective and metallic effects.

    Modern features the following characteristics:

    • the possibility of combining with other types of curtains and blinds,
    • eyelets and loops,
    • the presence of additional elements
    • the use of loose fabrics (nylon, organza, veil),
    • the use of drawings with epic heroes, unusual colors,
    • preference for sophisticated colors (white pearls, swamp greens).

    Choosing the style of window decorations should be based on the purpose of the room in which they will be located. In the kitchen, it should be practical and short products. They should be easy to wash. They should have several modes.

    A good option would be the following combination:

    • window blinds,
    • ordinary curtain with window sill length, cascading neckline.

    It is better to hang ceremonial products in the living room or hall room. They must be multi-layered with complex structures. Their task is to attract attention. Contrasting models are good. A set of fabrics with a high density of pastel shades should be hung in the bedroom. This combination protects against sound and light noise. They will bring peace and tranquility. Nursery worthy of natural materials. It is worth taking care of the fascinating image in a calm general tone. In the corridor, dense curtain structures will replace interior doors. It is worth considering options with a double-sided pattern.

    Fittings and accessories

    The presence of additional elements in the kit can be dictated by the requirements of style or comfort. In the first case, the task of the hardware is to create a suitable image in the interior. The second option focuses on the usefulness of these elements. With their help, open and close windows.

    Do it yourself

    To obtain the desired effect, it is not necessary to buy finished products or order them. You can sew products yourself. In a situation with two-color options, everything is very simple. They can be created by any novice hostess.

    Preparatory stage

    The first thing you should think about is a visual solution to window openings. Make it better on paper, armed with a pencil. It is necessary to depict the finished product as accurately as possible, think about fixtures and additional elements.

    Taking measurements

    The sketch also needs to record the dimensions. To do this, you must first take measurements using a measuring tape. You can find out the length by measuring the distance from the hooks of the cornice to the floor covering. Five centimeters should be added to the bends and seams. To determine the width of the finished product, the length of the cornice is measured. It must be multiplied by a factor of one and a half to two. This must be done to create folds and bends on the finished product in the process of processing the canvas.

    Material selection

    After creating the final image of the finished curtains and taking measurements, you need to select the material. The basis should be taken on the features of interior design and ease of use. Also, one should not forget about the availability of matter. When choosing a fabric, one should not forget about the presence of a suitable color scheme. Otherwise, creating the necessary atmosphere in the room will not work. To matter, you need to buy eyelets or curtain linen. Also available should be tools: scissors, needles, threads, pins. Of the technical means, a sewing machine and an iron are useful.

    Cutting and assembly

    The fabric needs to be laid out on a flat and even surface. After that, it should be cut. Two received cuts of different colors are sewn together. The resulting seam is processed and ironed. Side sections are tucked in two centimeters and ironed twice. The same is done with the bottom of the product. The curtains are half ready. Now you need to sew the curtain tape.

    To do this, the top of the curtain is wrapped in the width of the tape. The bend is smoothed. The tape is applied to the resulting edge. In this case, her loops should look up. The tape should be attached and stitched around the perimeter. Eyelets can be replaced with tape - special rings. In this case, a special sealing tape is glued to the top of the product. Points are marked for eyelets. Slots are made in these places. Rings are inserted and fixed in them. The product is ready. Now you need to hang it.

    Laundry and care products

    When washing products of a combined nature, it makes sense to adhere to a certain algorithm of actions. They must be soaked in a large volume of liquid. Wash them in a bag designed for this purpose. It is also worth taking care of special tools that will help maintain color brightness. They should also protect against accidental staining of the fabric. The washed curtains in the hall should be laid out horizontally, on smooth surfaces. When ironing, special attention should be paid to the seams. The right choice with proper care will help to create and maintain a unique interior.
