Properly chosen curtains unify the room. Designer Brianna Untener from Brianna Scott Interiors recommends paying it special attention because curtains transform the room and make it feel less empty. The width of the curtains should exceed the width of the window by 2 to 2.5 times to create beautiful folds. Curtains look better when they hang at least 4 to 5 inches above the window, depending on the distance to the ceiling.
Stylish curtains can enhance any interior, regardless of the style you have chosen. However, according to Anna Kroesser and Amelia Strat from Kroesser + Strat Interiors, there is one curtain style to avoid: “Window drapery with grommets make a home look less expensive and luxurious. This feels very college dorm-like and not elevated.” When choosing curtains, experts suggest focusing on models with hidden tabs or pinch pleats.
