Maybe you’ll choose to go with a simple set of long, grazing the floor curtains with a tailored pleat.
Perhaps you’ll choose a state-of-the-art motorised operating curtain.
The choice is yours and the options are endless.
The fun part?
You can decide all the designs yourself.
Or if you prefer you can hand it over to your own interior designer if you have one or we can recommend one.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
There is a lot of thought that goes into the design of either your curtains or blinds.
Colour schemes, patterns, texture and materials all need to be considered.
An experienced interior designer is always a great asset to get the most out of your design.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
Okay, you’ve got the style and design down.
Now for the less fun part, the numbers.
Measuring can seem like a large task if you do not know the correct methods.
There is a lot to consider.
Whether you want your curtains to reach the floor or the sill.
Then you have to think about the width.
Whether you want them inside the window recess, or above.
Above is usually the answer for those who are wanting curtains.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
To do this, measure the width of the window.
Then add an extra 30 to 40 centimetres (approx. 12 to 16 inches) to your measurement.
This allows for better light when your curtains are open and doesn’t block any light.
Your track or pole should be around 15 centimetres (approx 6 inches) above your window recess and of course centred.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
You want blinds that are set inside the window recess?
All you need to do is measure the length and the width of the recess.
What if you want your curtains and blinds outside or above the recess?
The same rules apply for the curtains, except you do not need as much added space to the width.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
