Regardless of whether we’re talking about business,<br />
restaurant or residential premises, curtains are,<br />
besides their primary purpose, the embodiment<br />
of taste and elegance, and if you choose them<br />
properly, lovely curtains can provide special identity to<br />
any room. By changing the curtains, you can quickly and<br />
simply change the entire ambience in a certain room, so<br />
that every space can shine in brand new fashion with just<br />
a little imagination.<br />
Naturally, curtains must be adjusted to the remainder of<br />
the room, and since you can find all kinds of models from<br />
various materials on today’s market, choosing the curtains<br />
can be a very fun experience.<br />
Different Models – Different Effects<br />
The amount of light in the room, the dominant colours<br />
and textures have a great deal of influence on the impression<br />
that a certain room leaves, which means that<br />
those elements have a direct influence on human mood.<br />
Therefore, you must be very careful that the curtains you<br />
choose achieve the effect you truly wanted. Offices and<br />
business premises should reflect a more serious atmosphere,<br />
but a huge amount of such ambience can have<br />
a negative effect and that can be avoided by choosing<br />
the curtains that will achieve a little contrast while lifting<br />
the atmosphere and making the room more vibrant. The<br />

contrast is represented by diversity and it brings life into<br />
the room, but make sure to choose the tones that do a<br />
good job of complementing each other. When it comes<br />
to living rooms, that’s where you can let your imagination<br />
run wild, but there are still some unwritten rules that must<br />
be respected. If the living room features large windows<br />
that provide a lovely panoramic view, then that’s something<br />
that must be emphasized. The effect of emphasizing<br />
the windows is accomplished by providing a stronger,<br />
more expressed contrast towards the rest of the room, so<br />
if the living room is dominated by bright furniture, for example<br />
a natur ensemble in flax colour, then the windows<br />
must be emphasized with curtains in some very bright<br />
colours. In that case, the ideal option would be curtains<br />
in slightly stronger orange or lemon-yellow. Many agree<br />
that there is no such thing as too much natural light in the<br />
room, which certainly makes sense, but there are plenty<br />
of people who prefer a more intimate atmosphere, and<br />
that asks for curtains from thicker materials, which can be<br />
used to completely regulate the amount of light that will<br />
enter the room. Such curtains are also appropriate for<br />
bedrooms.<br />
