How to Choose Living Room Curtains

The right living room curtains can make all the difference to your space. The curtains you choose will depend on a few factors, from your decor style to the size of the room and the amount of natural light you have in the room. In some cases, bold prints and colours can make a statement in your lounge. In other cases, neutral colours are a more subtle and versatile option. In this guide, we share some tips on what to consider when choosing your living room curtains.


A Guide to Living Room Curtains


Here’s what you should think about when choosing living room curtains.


Decor style


As a general rule of thumb, neutral colours are diverse enough to work with any decor style, from modern lounges to classic lounges. These won’t clash with any other colours in the room. You won’t have to change your curtains every time you decide to change the look of your lounge. If you prefer bolder styles, you could consider a bright solid colour that complements your main colour palette. You could even go for a modern print that will turn your curtains into a statement piece. 


Room size


Another thing to consider is the size of the room. In a smaller space, neutral curtains in a light solid colour that is close to your wall colour will give the illusion of space. Bright colours or bold prints can make the room look smaller, especially if you also have a lot of colour in the rest of your decor and furniture. Bolder curtains are best suited to larger lounges or open plan living areas that have more space. 


Privacy & light


Besides the look of the curtain, you will also need to think about the weight of the curtain fabric. Heavier curtains are a good choice if your living room faces the street. If you have bright lights from a nearby streetlight or your front doorway lights, heavier curtains will block out light more effectively. If your living room faces away from the street or you don’t need to worry too much about privacy, a medium weight curtain will be fine. These curtains will still provide full coverage. They won’t block out light completely, however.
