Choosing the right colour for your curtains can add a sophisticated touch to your house.

No room is wholly decorated if it is not equipped with curtains. Curtains add that final touch to your space apart from being an essential accessory for your windows to protect you from the heat, wind or even privacy.

Now, what colour of curtains to choose?

Well, it will depend on some factors such as the square meters that that certain room has. You also have to consider the colour of the walls and whether or not a lot of light enters.

The size of the room

Opting for neutral colours, such as beige or white, is an excellent idea for a small room. These colours are the ones that provide the most incredible sense of spaciousness. Choosing neutral colours will make the room look more spacious.
If the room is large, of course you will have a wider range of opportunities. You can play with many more colors and dare with patterned curtains.

The color of the walls

If your walls are coloured, for example, blue, then choosing white or beige curtains will give it a contrast that enhances the whole decoration.
If your room walls are white, you will be able to play with many more shades of modern curtains. White is a colour that can be combined with practically all types of curtains.
If you have a yellowish room, perhaps the most appropriate shades can be orange and green. They are the ones that will best match your walls.

The rest of the furniture

Now you will look at the rest of the furniture and, more specifically, the type of decoration you have chosen. It is widespread first to choose the furniture and then go to choose the curtains. These are conditioned by that style you have chosen. If, for example, you have opted for a rustic decoration, it is more convenient for your curtains to be plain in colour. It is very risky to recharge the room with patterned curtains.
If the room is minimalist, then striped curtains will look lovely. If the room is of an industrial type, where white and large spaces predominate, then beige tones and even a pattern to create contrast could be great.
