White curtains and light curtains in the interior with photos

Some people believe that white curtains in the interior look trite. How much they are mistaken. White - one of the achromatic (along with black and gray) is distinguished by the widest spectrum and is at the same time as a complete absence of color and the combination of the entire spectrum. It easily adapts to the rest of the palette and as if it sat down. Try, for example, hang the boiled curtains next to the blue walls and they will immediately get barely lit gentle blue. Such textiles never comes out of fashion, it does not happen "too" and it is capable of carrying out the shortcomings of any situation.

White features

Try hanging snow-white curtains or curtains and immediately feel that the whole setting has acquired freshness and novelty. And if earlier most people in our country, all the white associated with the hospital, today such a comparison is fairly considered obsolete. And we, like, for example, the inhabitants of the Scandinavian and Mediterranean countries, have recently more and more actively using all its varieties:

  • alebaster;
  • amiant;
  • beige;
  • whitish;
  • lily;
  • boiled;
  • pearl;
  • lactic;
  • ivory;
  • platinum;
  • cloud
  • smoke with flame.

All these are also variations on the "white" topic, and in fact they are much more.

White is not only a comfortable background. With it, you can create visual volumes, beat and dilute the color nuances, which competently arrange accents.

Advantages of white curtains

The most familiar and common view of white curtains in the interior of the apartment - Tulle, Veil or Organza

Bright colors are indispensable when you need to visually increase the volume of space, add light and air to it. Therefore, white curtains and wallpapers have always been in demand in small rooms with windows overlooking the northern direction. But lately, even spacious studio apartments have become fashionable to be fashionably in boiled, dairy and cloud tones. Moreover, it is often bright in them not only walls and ceilings, but also floors. As mentioned above, such a room does not resemble the hospital ward, but looks expensive and elegant.

Here are just the most obvious advantages of white curtains:

  • even close and gloomy atmosphere they make air and lighter. If the window openings are small, the ceilings are low, and the day is almost always overcast, the best way to minimize these flaws than to shove light wallpaper on the walls and decorate the windows in the same textile, not to find;
  • they bring a feeling of freshness, ease and purity into the atmosphere, make it solemn and elegant, attract attention to themselves and distract from the flaws of the planning;
  • since monophotional light canvases reflect the sun's rays and almost do not heat up, in a hot summer day in a room decorated with white textiles, the stuff is almost not felt;
  • thanks to the "neutrality" and the perfect combination of white with other colors such curtains can be adjusted under completely different design styles.

White may seem boring only at first glance. In addition to the fact that it has a lot of shades from an almost colorless transparent and matte to a gray-white gray gray, each of them is modified and "plays" on the curtain depending on the number and depth of its folds and light illumination. Where the folds are many, it becomes more intense, and where they are not there, even the dense canvases seem transparent, as if highlighted from the inside.

What fabric to choose

Perhaps the only significant lack of white textiles is that it cannot be saved. If the curtains with a print, ornament or vensels, stitched from budgetary matter often look quite adequate, then on white synthetic tulle or porters, the cheapness of the material immediately rushes into the eyes. Bleached flax, tight satin, cotton tulle, natural satin, silk organza and cheese, blended soft - cloth for boiled curtains must be high quality and, as a result, not cheap, and the percentage of artificial and natural fibers in them should be no more than 50 on fifty.

Contrary to the problem that only dark materials are completely cut off, the curtains of blackwood from the light-tight, created by the help of innovative web technologies can also be white.

When choosing a fabric, it is necessary to take into account the functional purpose of the room. For example:

  • the decor of the brilliant and monophonic satin or silk looks very expensive and is ideal for the living room;
  • curtains in the kitchen It is desirable to sew from cotton or blended textiles with a dirt-repellent impregnation;
  • in the bedroom and children's matte curtains of calm tones (ivory, bone milk, alabastra, amiant) from satin, software, flax, will be appropriate;
  • lightweight translucent curtains and Kieren fill the air atmosphere, gently scatter light and look good in a residential space.
