Many people mistakenly believe that in order to adjust the size of a window, it is necessary to carry out a full-scale renovation.
The expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, has her own opinion on this matter.
She advises using visual techniques: for example, choosing the right curtains.
So, if you have to deal with a narrow window, you need to hang the curtain rod in such a way that it extends approximately 15-20 cm beyond the window opening.
As for the design of curtains, in this case crossed examples and curtains gathered at the bottom with grabs will look good. Lush and voluminous curtains will also increase the window opening, as they take up more space on the sides.
If you want the window to look higher, you will have to hang the curtain rod closer to the ceiling and choose long curtains with a vertical pattern.
This way you can hide any imperfections that the window opening has.
If you plan to use tiebacks, it is recommended to place them higher than the normal level or even to abandon them.
But multi-layered curtains and drapery on the floor are your friends: they create the illusion of large windows and add elegance to the interior.
