Trends change every year and the general view of the interior - about once every five years. But, only truly passionate people can do repairs with such frequency. For the rest, there is a simpler option - to refresh the interior with textiles. Let's analyze which fashion trends and trends in the design of curtains for the living room are especially relevant in 2024 so that you can choose an individual option for decorating windows in a modern style.
Natural colors and textures
They suddenly burst into fashion back in 2020, and have remained in it ever since. Rough matting, elegant floral prints, and calm natural shades brought so much coziness to the house that you don’t want to part with them. But some changes have occurred.
If natural fabrics were initially used, now preference is given to mixed ones. Synthetic fibers make the fabric resistant to fading and shrinkage during washing. At the same time, their presence does not affect their appearance.
The palette of muted greens, blues, and beiges is joined by less traditional colors of powder pink, terracotta, and mustard.
More and more often, curtains with natural texture are being decorated, adding pompoms, fringe along the edge, and lace tiebacks. It looks cute and original.
Today, natural fabrics are combined with unusual textures and additions. In addition to regular semi-linen curtains, you can buy boiled and openwork cotton, curtains with fringe and pompoms. This gives even more opportunities to create coziness and stylize your home.
Laconicism
One of the three main principles of modern design also retains its popularity. Despite the triumphant return of fringe and grabs, the shape of the curtains still remains the simplest. No lambrequins or ruffles. Nevertheless, even among straight canvases, there is a significant variety, which is achieved by a variety of options.
Using hidden ceiling cornices. This move is especially relevant for implementing the Scandinavian style in an ordinary apartment. It visually enlarges the windows, and when choosing light options, it adds light and space to the room.
Eyelets. Large metal elements not only simplify hanging curtains on the cornice but also emphasize the modernity of the home.
Fabrics without drapery. They look like roller blinds but occupy the entire space from the cornice to the ceiling. Elegant lace, prints, and natural textures are especially good in this design.
Laconicism is one of the principles of modern style, which we will definitely not say goodbye to in the coming years. Therefore, no matter what curtains you choose - linen or velvet, white or dark green, in any case, it is worth adhering to this trend.
Multilayered
The classic version of window decoration is a thin tulle plus two thick curtains. Today, there can be more layers. Thus, more and more often, there are 3-4 curtains in different combinations on one cornice.
This can be an alternation of fabrics of different densities - light veil, colored organza, and blackout.
Often they choose duplicates. For example, plain-dyed organza and exactly the same with a print, dark green curtains, and a chintz floral print.
Fabrics of airy veil and thick satin sewn together.
All these combinations are designed to add dynamics and different textures to the interior. This will be a particularly good solution for those who are tired of minimalism and monochrome in their home, want movement and change.
Original combinations
Are you choosing between classic curtains and Roman blinds? Feel free to hang both models! After all, the new trend allows you to do this. Thus, more and more often the window is decorated with the most unexpected combinations.
Roller blinds and light veil. The role of "night" in this tandem is performed by the first. Therefore, they are usually chosen from the blackout category. But it is better to choose a color not too different from the tulle.
Blinds and curtains. In this combination, the fabric can be absolutely any - from light openwork to heavy velvet curtains, because blinds are able to both transmit light well and almost completely block it. But it will be better if you stick to a single style. For example, wooden blinds are quite comfortable next to half-linen curtains.
Roman blinds and drapes. In this case, the first ones are definitely better to choose from light openwork fabric, paying attention to beautiful draperies - they will become the center of attention in your living room.
Despite all the unusualness, all these combinations are very functional and comfortable in everyday life. The only important principle is the selection of combinations similar in style, color or texture.
Handcrafted elements
Vintage, boho and country styles have become synonymous with good taste in recent years. That is why many people want to add their touches to their interior. This is partly why handmade imitations are increasingly appearing in the range of curtain salons.
Curtains with lace inserts imitating crochet.
Edges reminiscent of Richelieu and Hardanger embroidery.
Tiebacks with flowers made of satin and nylon ribbons.
Machine embroidery on curtains and imitation of the popular cross stitch.
It is very good if you have the opportunity to do the work yourself or to order - in this case, you can choose ordinary semi-linen and cotton curtains. But if this is not possible, then it is better not to save on imitation - it should be as realistic as possible. After all, glittering prints and dubious lace will only add notes of falseness, not boho chic.
So, now you know what curtains are in fashion in the living room interior now - we have outlined the main current trends and modern tendencies inherent in the style of 2024.
