Windows are an important part of the house, so they should be not only functional, but also stylish. Their correct design will help create a cozy atmosphere in the room without spoiling the interior design.
This article will discuss designers' advice that will help you design even ordinary PVC windows so that they look stylish.
Tip one: choose the right curtains
Curtains are one of the most popular ways to decorate windows. Their choice should depend on the interior style.
For example, heavy curtains are suitable for a classic interior, and light curtains made of natural fabrics are suitable for a modern interior.
It is also worth paying attention to the color and patterns of the curtains, which can add brightness or merge with the wall. But do not get carried away with bright shades, as they will draw attention to themselves.
Tip two: use blinds
Blinds are a more formal and modern option than curtains. They are ideal for minimalist, laconic interiors and rooms decorated in Japanese style.
It is worth choosing an adjustable option, which will allow you to control the amount of light passing through the windows. There is an important nuance here: do not use plastic blinds if you do not want to create the effect of a mediocre office. But wooden or fabric ones look stylish and fit perfectly into modern interiors.
Tip three: add decorative elements
An empty window sill is convenient, but it looks like something is missing. A flower in a pot (it can be artificial), a beautiful vase, a souvenir or another decorative item will enliven the space by the window.
If you still prefer live flowers, choose plants that can survive in the conditions of a particular window. For example, cacti and any succulents are suitable for sunny windows, but for a northern windowsill, it is worth choosing shade-tolerant flowers (for example, ferns).
Tip 4: Use wide window sills
A wide window sill that you can sit on or even lie down on is a great alternative to a narrow classic option. It will have to be custom-made, but if the window offers a beautiful view, it’s worth it. You can also turn the window sill into a work desk or storage space by installing closed shelves underneath it.
As you can see, there are many ways to stylishly decorate windows. Choose those that match your interior and preferences. And remember: the decor can always be changed, but the windows themselves should be made of durable, high-quality materials, since their replacement is a complex and expensive process.
