Tall Curtains For Living Room
It's easy to think of window treatments as simply practical additions to a room - intended to block out light, keep in warmth or add a bit of a decorative touch - but how you dress the windows in a room can actually have a huge impact on the overall design.
From layering window treatments, to extending the space around them, it's time to style your living room windows with the same care and attention as any other area of the room. Here are some clever curtain ideas to get you started...
Layer the look
Everest
Why use one window dressing when you can have two? Whether it's shutters and drapes or a roll blind and a sheer voile, layering will give you options for how the room is lit but also will create a cosy effect, making it a great choice for bedroom window treatments as well as a living room.
Replace curtains for artwork

Not every living room window will necessarily need curtains, and if the windows are a feature in themselves, all the better not to detract from them. The key is to up the soft furnishings in the room, to keep the space warm and welcoming, and use the free walls around the windows for some striking artwork. If you think the window needs some element of dressing, you can always opt for a simple pelmet.

Focus on the details
Everest
If you're looking for window treatments that enhance the design scheme of the room, you'll want to think about custom window treatments. Everest are specialists in personalising windows, from offering different lead and colour options for the glass, to create a unique overall effect that draws the eye to the window - and as a result, will open up the entire living room space.
Opt for punchy prints

In need of curtain ideas? Prints can give a sense of depth and movement to the fabric, and also tie a scheme together. Whether you're opting for a more traditional look, matching curtains to cushions, or mixing things up with geometrics and florals for instance, printed window dressings can add cohesive style to any scheme.
Embrace colour

For blind, drapes or curtain ideas, take inspiration from bold hues, which can add a much-needed injection of colour to a room, while standing out against a more neutral wall-colour. Alternatively match the window shutters or fabric to the walls, for a contemporary colour-wash effect.
Keep it light

If you don't need total privacy, or to block out street or car lights at night, then choose a sheer voile. The diaphanous fabric will filter sunlight during the day, casting a flattering, soft light across the whole room.
Consider the windowsill
Everest
Create a seasonal display, from festive baubles and cinnamon sticks, to spring flowers in jam jars, or choose something that will work all year around, such as potted succulents or a series of candles. Keep it simple and streamlined if you have curtains that are frequently shut and drawn.
Extend the space around the window

Nothing beats feeling the warmth of the sun through a window, and a built in window seat is guaranteed to become a favourite spot in your living room. If you don't have the space for a full seat, create a reading nook by the window with a small armchair - this works particularly well as a window treatment for bay windows. Follow a similar style to your choice of window dressing and it will blend seamlessly.
