Want to revive your living room window furnishings but have no idea where to start? Lahood® has inspirational ideas to put your curtains and blinds front and centre.
Since your living room is often where you and your loved ones connect, it’s likely you’re prioritising comfort and family. Your window furnishings can serve a practical purpose whilst being the cornerstone to your decor decisions.
First think about what your priorities for window furnishings are. Do you want to create a focal point, retain privacy, reduce sunlight damaging your furniture and flooring, or provide easy outdoor access? Your window furnishings should fulfil your requirements of both form and function.
Impress at the heart of your home with luxurious curtains that are generously draped.
Your living room might include bi-fold or sliding doors or more traditional French windows, a shapely bay, or casement windows. Blinds, shutters, and curtains all provide treatments that can inject colour, patterns, and textures. This is where you can be bold and use your window furnishings to focus on a colour or theme that you can accentuate with other furniture or accessories.
Lahood’s showroom team recently worked with a Herne Bay client who had just purchased an architecturally designed home. The living room renovation included contemporary aesthetic window furnishings using a combination of Luxaflex® shutters and Duette® blinds and softened the look with full-length lightweight sheer linen curtains on a ceiling mounted track.
But it’s not just about aesthetics. Light control to reduce glare on screens and protect upholstery from fading may be vitally important, depending on the room’s orientation. Street-facing rooms need a treatment that brings privacy without making them gloomy, and here specially designed blinds, shutters and curtains can come to your aid.
In living rooms where the family spends a lot of time, indulge in automation. Having the convenience of remote control to close blinds and curtains can help retain heat and keep your home cosy and snug.
