Window decoration in the hall: recommendations for choosing a tulle. Tulle to the hall Tulle to the windowsill: a practical solution

Hey! Today, about such a simple, but for some reason causing many to doubt the question: is it necessary to hang tulle on the windows along with ordinary curtains? And the ensuing brain-tearing questions. Can you do without it? Wouldn't the window look naked and the whole interior unfinished? What will people say? But what if only ordinary curtains, because many designers say that tulle is a collective farm? The most obvious answer is all a matter of taste. But I, as usual, do not like such vague answers. Therefore, I will collect and expand all the pros and cons of using tulle, which will definitely help you make the right decision for your particular case.

Advantages

1.+ Private. The main and indisputable plus is the ability to hide what is happening in the room from prying eyes. A low floor or a dense building, when you and your neighbors can easily see through the window who is having breakfast, practically do not leave a choice. Exhibitionism is still a rather rare phenomenon, so most people in these conditions will choose a window with tulle, and even add blackout curtains. Because the tulle will show through when the lights are on in the room. But in the daytime it will cope with its task perfectly.

2 .+ Protecting the room from direct sunlight. This also protects objects from burning out, such as wood. Or maybe you have valuable antiques everywhere, the paintings are originals. And just in summer it can be too sunny and hot on the south side.

3.+ Tulle closes the so-called. "Black hole" at night. In general, it turns out there are quite a few people who are frightened by the night darkness in the windows. It seems that someone is watching you from this darkness. Personally, I experience this discomfort in low-rise private houses. For example, in a village with relatives, the night darkness towards the forest is terrible horror. But on high floors, in apartment buildings, I'm already fine. And such fears even bring a smile.

4 . + Ugly radiator is covered. Many people do not like it when they see some utilitarian household items, the battery is one of them. It may be old and ugly, or it may be new, but too out of the ordinary. There may be counters, sensors, regulators - not everyone likes to observe this practically in the most conspicuous place. You don't always want to put the screen on, and the light tulle perfectly covers all this disgrace.

disadvantages

1. — Decrease in insolation (incoming sunlight). No matter how thin and light the tulle is. It seems to me that every housewife clearly saw this, who at least once removed everything from the windows for washing. With a bare window, the room is immediately brighter. I find it difficult to determine by how many times or by how many percent, but this difference is so significant that it is clearly visible to the eye. But I will say right away that our Russia is so big that for some regions this is clearly not a problem, but for others it is simply a mockery to reduce the already incoming crumbs of light.

Judge for yourself, the average number of sunny days per year in different regions. I envy you, Siberians and southerners!

Sunny days per year:

• Irkutsk - 318 !!!
• Omsk, Khabarovsk, Vladivostok, Krasnodar - about 300.
• Volgograd - 240
• Rostov-on-Don - 234
• Kazan - 200
• Ufa, Perm, Novosibirsk - 190
• Moscow - 188
• Saint Petersburg - 180
• Murmansk-151
• Yakutsk-135

There are regions where the weather is bad for half a year, but even more. I just want to add the incorruptible ... The village of Gadyukino was washed away. Feels like I have no clear sky in Izhevsk, almost from October to March. Plus, it rains in the summer. Without the sun, sometimes you just want to howl, and by mid-February, the state of health is already close to coma.

2. — Visual reduction in the area of ​​the room. At least the size of the windowsills. Let's pick up a calculator. For example, in my living room I have 2 windows and load-bearing walls 80 cm thick. Having hung the tulle, I physically fenced off 2.48 square meters in only one room. In monolithic houses, the walls are thinner, but nevertheless, the total amount of all window sills can be tangible. I'm sure that just like that no one would agree to voluntarily reduce their apartment by 1-, 1.5 squares, like a trifle, but I don't want to give them up at all.

3. — Windows "expand" the space. Any room with a window visually seems more the same, but without a window. They are the natural architectural centers of the premises and are always eye-catching. And then the gaze slides further, out of the room, and it seems to us more spacious. But even a simple lightweight tulle immediately cuts off everything outside the window. Closes the space. The conditional 17 meters will be physically fenced off from the rest of the world.

It turned out that there are much more advantages to using tulle. But, by and large, the final decision is not made by their number, but based on the architectural features of a particular room. Now I have a second floor and a nearby neighboring house - so there is tulle in the living room, but no longer in the kitchen. The new apartment will have a high floor and the distance to the neighbors is twice as large, I was exhausted to sit for half a year in the twilight, so it will not be there. I will only hang simple curtains and sunbathe.

Do you have tulle hanging at home or have you given up on it? Maybe I forgot some other significant reason, share in the comments.

   Hello! Instead of tulle, we decided to hang horizontal blinds inside the window in order to more effectively use the wide window sill, the apartment is small, every meter counts. Nelly, can you tell me about the width of the lamellas, the usual 25 mm, but the store advises cassette 16 mm, is it worth overpaying? And how do you generally feel about blinds in the living room?

3. Ala

   It seems to me that light tulle can be added to the pluses for comfort, for example, in the kitchen, where there is a minimum of beautiful furniture, basically everything is utilitarian. But a beautiful chandelier and tulle immediately make the room interesting, cozy, romantic, in general not office 😉 What do you think?

4. Tatiana

   We have the 2nd floor, there is no tulle in the kitchen and I really like it: it is convenient to dilute cooking and cleaning with quick glances through the window, during the meal you can watch the processes from the outside, no doubt, there is a lot of light and I also like that there is no voluminous light canvas. not far from the stove. I pull down the blackout curtains at night.
   There is also no tulle in the bedrooms with balconies. But here I am in doubt. For comfort, the tulle wants to hang, but, given that the balconies steal light, it will become even darker in the room. For three years we have been living without it, I am thinking everything)))

   Now, if I was asked this question in childhood, then I would say that tulle is needed on the windows, and the more, the better. I often received scolding from my grandmother for stealing tulle from windows in order to catch small fish in the pond with friends .. the window is empty, but there is fish 🙂

   And now I would not see this tulle in my eyes, a collection of dust and all the time in the same place it is soiled from hands when it is deflected from the window. I have horizontal blinds installed on the windows, it is very comfortable and modern .. I went through them with a vacuum cleaner and they were clean ...

7. Arthur

   I have been “fighting” with my wife about tulles all our life together (7 years already): she cannot live without them, and I just hate them. I have already made arguments in favor of the visual expansion of the space, and told / showed about the blinds, and scared them with a collection of dust - nothing helps. It usually ends like this - "take off my tulles from the windows and you won't see me again" 🙂

8. Helena

   We live without tulle and any curtains in the living room. In the kitchen, which is combined in the living room, there are only roller blinds, oh god, charcoal. In the nursery there are light curtains, in the bedroom the curtains are translucent. Second floor. I don't feel any discomfort. Is it only in the evening in the kitchen that I lower the curtain 🙂 If there was an opportunity to make full-wall windows ... why do tulle, curtains, curtains? I don’t understand lambrequins, ruffles, tsarist grabs 🙂 Probably, it’s a matter of character?
   My answer is no!

9. Darya

   We moved to a new apartment 2 years ago, planned to use wooden blinds instead of curtains, but still with bare windows - and I like it so much that I don't want any curtains. The only thing in the bedroom was a roller blind (blackout) from the light. We have 21 floors, though. The feeling of space and light is very pleasing)

At the final stage of the renovation, the room is saturated with decorative elements. At this moment, a special comfort and warmth is added to the room. Tulle in the interior is of key importance. It is important to consider many different factors in order to make the right choice.

Not only design solutions are becoming more, but also the color gamut is expanding. Choosing a bright tulle, you need to make accents to match. Pillows, photo frames are suitable. This will help to achieve a holistic picture in the interior.

Minimalism is in trend

It consists in the absence of all kinds of piles, numerous items and the use of unnecessary accessories. Minimalism is about functionality, not decoration. Tulle in such an interior needs to be bought dense, which protects from light. But at the same time, it is light and barely noticeable. The tones are chosen so that the window does not rush into the eyes and does not become a bright spot. A hallmark of minimalism is the use of clear, straight lines. The use of different lengths is allowed.

Batik and photo printing

Tulle batik or with photo printing can be made to order or bought ready-made. To avoid disturbing the pattern, it is necessary to exclude the appearance of folds. But for photo printing of the sky or the sea, their formation is permissible, which allows you to increase the volume.

Mostly with a pattern, it is purchased for windows facing the sunny side. This creates a twilight in the room, darkening it slightly. Suitable for adherents of novelties and non-standard solutions in the interior. For the selected image, pillows are selected in the kit for originality.

Types of tulle on the windows: how to choose your option

The market offers a wide range of textures, designs, colors. When choosing a specific material, it is recommended to rely on the quality, the required shade and take into account the possibility of different textures to transmit light in their own way.

A multicomponent product is able to perfectly keep its shape, rarely gets dirty, perfectly tolerates washing, and retains its visual appeal for a long time.

It is important to consider the type of threads that are included in the material. One-piece consists of only one type of fabric. Multicomponent are distinguished by their combination in the composition of several materials.

Curtains made from natural fabrics have a higher cost and are not suitable for frequent washing. But they are environmentally friendly.

Texture is an important parameter. Some shimmer and stream in the sunlight, others create a pleasant twilight.

A product with a picture will become the main accent. When making a choice, remember to combine it with the general interior, harmoniously fitting into it. This helps to add personality and originality to the curtains and the room itself.

Tulle to the windowsill: a practical solution

There are various lengths and shapes. Arches to frame the window, flowing like beads or blinds. The classic option is the length of the curtain to the windowsill. This allows it to get less dirty due to the lack of contact with the floor. If space is limited, this length will fit perfectly into the conditions created. Long model visually reduces the size of the room. And the airy one, with the length to the windowsill, creates the effect of spaciousness. By using a variety of fastening methods and adding ribbons and hairpins, you can change the composition.

Playing with light

Tulle looks good with curtains made of thick fabric. This allows you to change the level of illumination, add various visual effects, when combining fabrics and textures. It is permissible to combine blinds and tulle.

1. Shades of tenderness and joy.
   Windows facing the dark side need to add light through the use of a pastel warm palette. For a bright room, it is better to buy peach tulle, which can somewhat soften the rays of the sun.
2. Mix from a color palette.
   A light-colored product is perfect for combination with dark curtains. The solution is considered universal, and will remain relevant and fashionable for many years to come. The combination of different shades will achieve a unique effect. It is necessary to take into account the overall design and the harmony of colors with each other.
3. Dark tulle in a romantic style.
   If the windows are located on the south side, it is permissible to slightly dim the light using curtains with high density in a cold range. This allows you to achieve a romantic twilight.

It is important to achieve a combination of it with the rest of the interior. Recommendations will help to bring this to life.

1. Minimalism. It does not lose its relevance for a long time. A straight product seems banal and boring only at first glance. Add a good combination of colors, images and it will transform the overall look.
2. Curtains by the type of threads and beads. A winning solution for any space. Tulle is externally similar to blinds. The difference lies in lightness, visual texture and the ability to play in the light.
3. Combination with blinds. It may seem that both products are not connected to each other. In fact, you can achieve successful combinations by placing blinds on the window and framing it with an arch made of lightweight fabric.
4. For baroque or rococo, the construction of a multi-layer curtain using various textures is suitable. It looks lush and expensive.
5. High-tech and modern rooms are suitable for transparent models and geometric images. Add metallic thread accessories. This will give the appearance a shine.
6. Curtains with a large size image printed on them. A bright pattern helps to visually enlarge the space. It is better to choose this option for rooms with small windows.
7. For the nursery, purchase curtains with plot pictures. Colored tulle with beautiful patterns located on it is also suitable. You should definitely show your imagination when choosing this element.

Living room tulle

When choosing for the living room, consider the shades of the curtains. Solid and light products are suitable for bright or with pictures. You can achieve rigor by choosing a matte texture.

Curtains can act as an independent element of the interior. If the windows face the north side, the room lacks light. Curtains will be superfluous and will only reduce the illumination. It is enough to hang only tulle. A smart one will do, creating a beautiful and cozy atmosphere.

When combining a window with an exit to the balcony, it is recommended to purchase asymmetric fabrics decorated with beautiful lace. Tulle will be an excellent helper in disguising the radiator located under the windowsill. If it is covered with special panels, then it is not necessary to buy a floor-length version. A short model will decorate the room, performing a decorative role.

For closely spaced windows, buy a single set of curtains. To hide the partition, a long fabric is placed, and short curtains can be placed on the opening. The window sill will not be closed, which will allow flowers to be placed on it.

If the window opening is large, occupying a significant area of ​​the wall, you should not completely curtain it. An almost transparent tulle will do, the curtains are placed on the sides, beautifully tied up.

Tulle for the bedroom

Veil and organza are most often used for the bedroom. The latter is a transparent fiber with an airy effect. Suitable for combination with curtains. Veil is a soft, translucent fabric. Can be used as an independent decoration.

The choice for the bedroom depends on your ideas about how this room should look like. A product with a beautiful image or guipure inserts will help to add solemnity. But then be sure to choose curtains in a classic style, otherwise it will come out too colorful. Currently, it is fashionable to decorate with curtains that cover the cornice.

Lighting must be considered. The darker, the lighter and lighter fabrics are recommended to buy. Thick curtains are suitable for light, spacious rooms.

Finished edges emphasize the embodied composition. The appearance of waves is created. If the width of the garment does not allow for this effect, you can trim the edges with lace braid that matches the curtains in style and tone.

The size of the canvas is an equally important parameter. The optimum width is a size that is at least twice the length of the eaves. This creates beautiful folds that add volume to the composition. The distance between the fabric and the floor should be at least two centimeters. Short pieces are not used in the bedroom. They are more suitable for the kitchen or nursery. This is because they visually reduce the height of the ceiling. In a spacious room, the opening will look disproportionate. If the bedroom has a balcony, then the curtains should completely cover everything.

It has already been noted about window decoration in the nursery. Choose models with funny pictures. Heroes of cartoons or fairy tales can be depicted. Don't overdo it with the color scheme. Too bright provoke rapid fatigue in the child.

Monochromatic models or with geometric elements made on them are suitable for the boy's room. For girls, it is better to buy pink tulle or in pastel colors, on which ruffles and frills are present.

Curtains and tulle for the kitchen - easy to clean, beautiful in the interior

Most kitchens are not spacious. Keep in mind that the entire space will be used to the maximum, and the main lighting is natural light.

The length should be chosen to the windowsill. The floor-length model will interfere with the functional use of the kitchen.

A kitchen window curtain should:

1. be simple and easy to clean;
2. let in enough sunlight;
3. completely match the overall color and style.

The selected model has not only a decorative function, but also a practical one. Therefore, in addition to lightness and airiness, it should hide the presence of any defects in the finish.

Window decoration is a significant element of the interior. Most often, this is the final chord of the renovation, which is closely interrelated with the design of the room. How to choose tulle for the hall and other rooms, so that the curtains on the windows serve as an element of decor, at the same time they are functional, that is, they diffuse or dim the light and isolate the room from prying eyes?

The living room is the central room of the house, where all family members gather, holidays and celebrations take place, one might say the "heart" of the apartment. Therefore, it is important to take into account many nuances here.

What to consider

Before choosing curtains and tulle for the hall, you need to understand what function the window decoration will perform. The room itself and its characteristics are also of great importance.

What needs to be determined:

• curtains are used as a decorative element or carry a functional load;
• window and room size;
• location in relation to the cardinal points, therefore, illumination;
• interior style;
• practicality and ease of use.

Based on these moments, the curtains for the windows are selected.

How to choose tulle

You need to choose a curtain for the living room along with a tulle for it. There are recommendations from designers who will tell you how to choose a kit:

• If you put emphasis on the curtain, which itself is rich in color and patterns, then tulle plays the role of a background. For these purposes, a smooth one-color tulle is suitable. In this case, a contrast effect is used - a dark saturated color of curtains and light tulle.

• In the case when curtains are complementary, feedback. The curtain material should be neutral and accentuate the tulle texture.

By interior style

How to choose tulle and curtains based on your interior design? Here you need to rely on the style of the room:

• Minimalism requires simple elements, without unnecessary pretentiousness. In this case, the emphasis is on the texture of the fabrics.

• Classics and baroque, on the contrary, attract the use of lambrequins, shuttlecocks, grabs. It is tulle in various variations that is used for such techniques.

• Provence, shabby chic, chalets require curtains with floral elements. Curtains with flowers, tulle with frills are appropriate here. Textiles are duplicated in interior details, pillows, bedspreads, chair covers.

• Ethnic style of different directions - here textiles play an essential role. The very shape of the curtains should correspond to the theme.

• Indian style - heavy curtains with rich textures and rich colors. Tulle can be with gold thread or rhinestones.

• Japanese style is screen curtains made of smooth thin fabric or Roman cloth.

• In the African style, you can use stylized fabrics and tulle from threads. Natural fabrics are better suited.

By functionality

It is also necessary to select tulle according to their functionality. For the first and second floors in the house, it is important that the curtains insulate the room from prying eyes. Choose tulle, curtains are better so that they shine through less. These should be thick curtains and a translucent lightweight fabric. Organza works best.

The option, when curtains act as a decor in the hall, involves many more different combinations. For example, tulle without curtains in the interior - it can be made of various materials (taffeta, muslin, mesh).

Lighting and windows

It is necessary to choose tulle for the hall, taking into account the illumination and size of the windows. The most lighted rooms with windows to the south and southwest. Therefore, the curtains here will play the role of a screen that scatters the sun's rays. Curtains in rich colors will do. It is possible to use non-standard options. Brown tulle in the interior acts as a filtering screen, shades the sun's rays.

If the windows face the north side, then not enough light penetrates the room. Here you need to use light shades. Only tulle can be hung. Another option - a light curtain moves to the place of the curtain in the foreground, and light curtains to the traditional place of tulle. The window, as it were, goes slightly deeper into the room.

West and east windows are the optimal light conditions. But all the same it is not necessary to darken the windows too much.

Heavy, dark curtains and thick tulle will make small windows even smaller. Therefore, you only need light colors and the use of a light curtain that transmits light as much as possible (mesh, light taffeta). With large windows, everything is much simpler, it is possible to decorate the windows, starting from the taste and purpose of the curtains.

It is recommended to use one rule: the colors of the curtains should be duplicated in the interior details. This is important for the curtains of the hall, because this is the main room, it should be especially expressive. Choosing a curtain, at the same time, a tulle ensemble is selected for it.

A well-chosen companion is the key to a successful curtain design. In order to facilitate the choice of curtain salons in the collection samples, they offer ready-made options for combining curtains and tulles.

Choosing fabric by color and material

The guidelines will be the color scheme of wallpaper and textiles, the general color of the room, and the style of the room. Several options can be used:

• If the windows are large, panoramic to the floor and it is necessary to emphasize their importance, you can only use curtains so that the windows themselves are clearly visible.

• The classic of the genre is a combination of curtains and tulle. It is important to harmonize them with the interior and with each other.

• Option when tulle is in the foreground. In this case, the curtains play the role of a screen that closes the windows. The main emphasis falls on the tulle. It should be interesting and expressive. The assortment of the proposed samples will allow you to implement any design solution.

• You should pay attention to the translucent curtain with photo printing. Thanks to this technique, any image is applied to a translucent material. It looks amazing and serves as a striking decorative element.

• One tulle is used. In this case, lightweight window fabric is the queen of the ball. We choose the material, color, texture in such a way that the curtain matches the conceived solution for the interior as much as possible.

If you have a studio living room, then the kitchen is combined with the hall. Curtains should overlap with each other. It is not necessary to design the same, you can simply duplicate the fabrics.

The right material is the key to an interesting solution for a curtain for a window. The main translucent fabrics for tulle are organza, taffeta and mesh material. In turn, they are subdivided according to their structure and types into smooth ones, with patterns, with decorative inserts and elements.

In the video: tulle: we understand the materials and weaving.

There are several types of non-smooth fabrics:

• With drawings. Depending on the purpose of the room and style, you can use tulle with a pattern or photo printing as a decorative element for decorating a window. In this case, the windows will visually draw attention to themselves. Such a light curtain will decorate the interior of the living room.

• Lace tulle. Most suitable for Provence, Shabby Chic, Art Deco styles. Lace curtains create a homely feel. Looks appropriate in the hall and kitchen.

• Textured fabrics. The main decorative element is a varied texture and thread thickness. These can be chaotic weaves of different thicknesses, knots, stripes piercing the fabric, and uneven paths. This also includes spiderweb tulle.

• Mesh fabrics. Fashionable trend. The main advantage is that it lets light through the window better. Different threads can be used, including silver colored ones. Effective enough and not standard.

• Thread tulle or muslin. These options have become a hit in the market. They are separate threads from different materials, collected on braids. They are studded with beads, consist of multi-colored threads, in the form of a silvery rain, and so on. They are often used to zone a room. It is better to use them separately or so that the curtains are an inconspicuous background.

A variety of tulle textures and materials make it possible to decorate the hall windows for every taste and implement any design solution. Based on our recommendations, you can easily find the right option for the hall.

Living room - the room in which the residents of the apartment spend most of their time. Therefore, the interior of the hall always takes a lot of time, effort and money. It is especially difficult to find good curtains, without which this space can easily lose coziness.

Peculiarities

It is not easy to choose a beautiful tulle that would be in harmony with the rest of the interior elements in the house. It is necessary to take into account at least the appropriateness of a particular color palette in the hall and, as a maximum, the features of the material, length, draperies and various accessories. Designers' offerings are full of different tulle ideas for the living room - from classic options in sheer solid voile to modern fashion designs in draped mesh with ribbon eyelets.

Basically, many people prefer plain long tulles made of organza, chiffon or veil. You can use them in different interiors and add accessories yourself. It is enough to buy one of these fabrics, sew it along the bottom, insert the braid - and the traditional curtain is ready. For originality, you can make bow folds or add silk ribbon rings and a gold cord for tying

Multi-window halls look good with two-layer tulle, which is edged on top with a lambrequin with ruffles. Although many people try to abandon massive dense structures in textile design, the majestic Rococo style is still popular with customers.

Length

Before you go to a seamstress or shop for new curtains, you must first calculate their length. To determine the correct size, you need to rely on several important points:

• Room interior;
• Window type;
• Lighting of the space from the street side.

Short

If the window is horizontal or it is in a niche, then you can safely choose tulle up to the windowsill. It looks good in small rooms. This option does not clutter up the space and creates coziness. In Provence and Country styles, short curtains are quite popular. But they will look exquisite only if there is no radiator under the window.

And so that there is no feeling of "bare walls", it is worth adding some bright ornament under the windowsill. It can be a rectangular picture or a large wallpaper pattern. It is better to avoid short curtains in "sunny" rooms or choose a shade curtain in addition to light fabric for comfort.

Average

Medium length tulle is rare today. Designers are of the same opinion that the footage below the windowsill does not always look harmonious. When tulle opens the window completely, it can look sloppy and tasteless. To remedy this situation, you need to pick up different parts of the tulle with curtains or special holders. If there is a battery under the windowsill, then this length option will again ruin the entire interior.

To the floor

These curtains will suit any interior and different types of windows, especially arched and French designs. Long tulle has always been a symbol of elegance and aesthetics in the interior. Large living rooms with them visually become even larger, and small ones receive comfort and warmth as a bonus. It is important that the curtains are below floor level. Otherwise, they will seem "shot".

Interior options

The classic interior of the living room involves a composition of tulle and blackout curtains. This option will suit any apartment design, regardless of the chosen style. But contemporary ideas for room design know no bounds. Simplicity and minimalism are in fashion today. Therefore, even a plain tulle without lambrequins and curtains will look stylish and harmonious in any room.

Design novelties usually come from the distant past. Draped tulle, fashionable in the 18th century, is again in trend today. Today, very often it can be seen in the "New" section of catalogs of fabrics and curtains stores. In addition, folds do a good job of protecting the room from the sun's rays and the prying eyes of neighbors. Samples of style for bay window windows are the use of tulle in translucent edging and blackout curtains. Various combinations are possible here.

Many are mistaken that such a decorative model is suitable exclusively for classic interiors, but even Hi-tech, famous for the maximum simplicity of forms, does not deny this option.

Materials (edit)

On sale you can find a wide selection of materials from which tulle is made. Its main types are mesh fabrics, organza and veil. The structure of such materials is different: transparent, matte, patterned, lace. The design of the room will determine the choice of a particular fabric.

Veil

Tulle made from this fabric is very durable because it is dense in structure. In addition, due to its good dust resistance, the veil does not need to be washed as often as other types of materials. It is very easy to make draperies from it and add a variety of patterns. The density of the canvas will depend on the number of patterns on it. This fabric is softer than organza. It fits well with a catchy, bright design, because it is presented in a wide palette of colors (from snow-white to luscious scarlet).

Organza

Organza makes an airy, translucent tulle. This fabric is made of polyester. There is also a combined type of cloth made of viscose and silk fibers. But it is sold only in a few large Russian stores and is very expensive. Many residents of megalopolises do not take organza curtains, because it does not allow air to pass through well. But on the other hand, such fabric can be easily washed off and dries very quickly.

Net

In recent years, this type of tulle has become very popular in the interior of the hall. It looks very elegant, so it often does not require additional decorative elements for itself. The mesh structure is made of synthetic fibers. Dust is constantly attracted to this material. Therefore, those who are allergic to it need to think about choosing a different material for the curtains.

Batiste

Chiffon

This tulle differs sharply from all other materials. It has a relief structure that is obtained from a tight weave of crepe threads. Chiffon looks very expensive. But processing it is very problematic: it is how much material that begins to crumble during turning. And his service life is short.

Jacquard

The most difficult thing in sewing is jacquard tulle. It is made of threads that differ in size and shade. Therefore, the fabric has a relief and many colors. Such a curtain is expensive, but it is difficult to find a similar material in terms of strength and splendor. It is in perfect harmony with oriental style, Rococo and Classics.

In textile design, it is important to pay attention to the interior of the room. A well-chosen tulle will become the main element in the decor of the space. Today, designers give the same preference to both classic styles and modern fashion trends.

Classic

This style gives preference to the traditional canons in the fashion world. The decoration of the window space combines translucent tulle and blackout curtains. In this version, short or medium length of curtains is not acceptable. Only long fabrics that visually make the ceilings higher. Drapery is a significant detail of this design. It adds volume to the decorative composition. Tulle with lambrequins, tassels and ruffles adds flavor to a classic style that will always be in trend.

Rococo

Rococo's wealth and arrogance is manifested in the use of expensive fabrics. Silk and tapestry tulle frames the window space in tandem with a lambrequin, which is the main element of this style. A distinctive feature here is the golden threads interspersed with the material. Rococo is unrecognizable without drapery and ruffle. It is they who put an end to the design.

Modern

It is a combination of simplicity, lightness and originality at the same time. Chaos, which is thought out to the smallest detail. Upon entering the hall, it seems that the tulle is a window cover, accidentally thrown over the curtain. Flowers in this style have no limits. The more unusual the combination, the better. A classic sign of Modernity is a curtain casually fixed to the side. For fastening, ordinary plain tapes or coarse cords are used. Anyone who appreciates the unusual form and content will appreciate the Modern.

Art Deco

New ideas for whimsical color and shape combinations can also be found in the Art Deco style. All shades of gold, browns and nude are available here. A distinctive detail of tulle in this style is patterns. Their choice is huge: from geometric shapes to abstractions of the East. For example, in catalogs for textile design, you can often find a very popular ornament - the symbol of the rising sun (a semicircle from Egyptian culture).

Minimalism

Small details and a large number of items are not for this style. He also discourages various halftones. Only uniform colors that instill a spirit of calm. Airy solid tulle is the choice of Minimalism. No drawings or patterns. The only original solution to this style is the possibility of combining curtains and blinds.

Country

The tulle in this style is made of printed chintz. A prerequisite for Country is a special cut. The canvas should be divided into two equal parts. For greater solemnity, they can be connected with a lambrequin. The rustic styling of the curtains is made of checkered linen and cotton. But the main highlight of Country is tulle with large flowers of medium size, which is attached to the wall with a wide ribbon.

Nautical

The nautical tulle is a fresh design discovery. This is a lush curtain made in cool shades of blue. The drapery gives the style more lightness and freshness. And lambrequins make it stricter and more varied. The only drawback of this style is the change of seasons outside the window. For example, in winter, falling snow and blue fabrics in a nautical theme will not look very harmonious.

High tech

This style characterizes the modern way of life of young people as accurately as possible. Technology, high rhythm, precision, graphics. Interior items reflect all the best embodiments of human imagination. Tulle in this design with an unusual texture: threads stylized as metal are combined with 3D printing. The color range is limited to steel shades of a muted spectrum: bronze, gold, steel.

Electics

This style combines several styles: classic, Rococo and Baroque. A short tulle tied with a fringed brush can hang on a molded cornice, and a light transparent curtain can be combined with heavy curtains of a classic style. The electic is both simple to elementary and regal. But expressiveness is achieved precisely when these opposites merge together. This style is not synonymous with disorder. On the contrary, it is based on a single artistic concept that combines various decorative details.

Gothic

Smooth vertical lines are the hallmark of the Gothic. Geometry prevails here. Curtain materials in this style are made of chiffon or jacquard. Wooden curtains complement the created image. The colors of the tulle must be of uniform texture and made either in very light or deep dark shades.

Oriental

The style of the East gave the design a fashionable direction, which today is popular not only in the southeastern countries, but also in the West. It cannot be confused with any other style. Luxurious dark colors in burgundy shades are combined with golden lace made from precious materials. This tulle will appeal to those who appreciate the richness of the interior decoration in the living room. The main detail here is the large number of draperies, patterns and rich colors.

Colors

The color of the tulle affects not only the design of the living room, but also the characteristics of the room. There are general trends in textile design that need to be followed to create a stylish interior. For example, a hall with windows facing the sunny side should be equipped with darker and denser curtains. Or if the space is small, then large patterns on the fabric should be abandoned. The depth of the color scheme, along with the ornament and fabric, makes an important contribution to the atmosphere of the living room.

Warm

Nude paints significantly expand the space. Yellow, orange and peach shades make the room brighter and brighter. It is better to choose them for dark rooms. White transparent tulle can look very sparse and cheap. Therefore, for greater presentability, it is worth buying a fabric two to three times longer than the curtain.

Cold

Dark tulle reduces the square footage. Blue, lilac and violet colors bring coolness to the room. Silver strands woven into the fabric create a festive mood, while glossy tones further enhance the lighting.

How to choose?

The difficulty in choosing tulle is that sometimes it is impossible to predict in advance whether any fabric will look organic in the window space or not. The best option is to consult with a seamstress and sew tulle in the workshop for the desired dimensions and personal design preferences. It is much more difficult to pick up the finished tulle.... Now the trend is curtains in two canvases. This design creates the effect of the right balance and harmony in the room. Tulle will be comfortable and organic in a room with a balcony. Such models are the most practical and popular in the textile industry. They are sold at any fabric and curtain store.

Double tulle on the eyelets will come in handy in a room with a balcony door. Due to the fact that it is often open in the summer, a lot of sunlight enters the room. Therefore, a set of two fabrics will protect the tulle from fading and the room from excessive lighting. And the rings will allow you to freely get to the balcony. In addition, this version of the curtains creates a kind of 3D effect in a small room. Curtains for two or three windows are perfectly combined with clips and ribbons, which must necessarily match the overall style of the living room. A very beautiful model for large living rooms - tulle of combined colors. Top - transparent organza material. Bottom - a combination of decorative elements. The option is perfectly combined with eyelets made of metal or plastic fittings.

The primary factor of coziness and comfort in the house is the interior. Therefore, creating a special atmosphere, you need to remember about the design, style, color background, furniture arrangement and, of course, about the correct design of the window space. Curtains and curtains are an indispensable companion here. Recently, tulle without adding curtains has been in vogue, it makes the room larger, gives it lightness and at the same time prevents direct sunlight from entering the room, gently scattering them.

Let's take a closer look at the tulle for the hall. To begin with, this is usually a public room in which we arrange gatherings with relatives, invite guests, or just get together for dinner with the whole family. Therefore, it is the living room that is the face of the house, an indicator of the taste, individuality and style of the owners.

This fact suggests that being here, guests and loved ones should feel comfortable, be in a good mood, tune in to a positive mood and communication. In the interior of such a room, windows and their design play an important role.

Curtains are able to very profitably complete the interior, bring zest to it, add charm. In 2017, light flowing tulle for the hall is in fashion, smoothly falling from the window, options with printed flowers, large drawings and lurex have gone into oblivion.

Fashion trends

Simple, straight, uncomplicated curtains are very popular. Although unusual designs, in the form of lambrequins or additional folds made of the same material, are also in vogue. You can decorate a room with their help in any desired style - from classic options to such styles as high-tech, baroque, modern, minimalism.

In addition, now beautiful tulle is distinguished by its practicality - it is easily washed, most materials do not wrinkle, is lightweight and lends itself to many modifications.

Until recently, advanced experts advised to completely abandon the use of tulle. Now almost no room can do without it. Which option should you choose?

For the classic decoration of the room, light, calm shades, straight or with large airy folds, will be appropriate.

Tulle novelties are models with tassels, fringes, lambrequins and even elegant and festive ruffles.

If there is enough space in the living room, it makes sense to play with colors, choosing a fabric to match the furniture or carpet. Or you can put a small emphasis on the windows and choose a completely different shade, the main thing is that it is in harmony with other interior items.

When the hall is small, it is better to choose pastel tulle - beige, blue, pink, mint, white and the like.

Remember psychological calmness, relaxation, mood enhancement when choosing fabric. Warm, yellow-orange, sandy and gentle tones will be more favorable. Be careful with bright colors - red is annoying, a combination of black or brown tones is depressing. If you want to combine with more saturated ones, then stop at purple, emerald, calm blue and burgundy tones.

An interesting option would be the ombre-style tulle design for the hall, when delicate shades turn into more saturated ones to the bottom.

Pay attention to the length. The distance between the floor and the curtain should not stand out. It is better if the fabric covers the floor a little.

An important point is the density of the fabric. For light large rooms, you can take thicker curtains. In the case when the windows are small, it is worth taking a more transparent fabric.

The general environment plays an important role. When there are a lot of furniture and other items in the hall, plain models are better suited. In a design with a minimum of furniture, you can choose curtains with a pattern - the most popular options are with vertical stripes, geometric colors, photo printing in the form of butterflies, a night city, landscapes. The latter option will favorably place accents and be able to hide small flaws.

Types of tulle

The fabric from which tulle is made can be completely different in composition, color, sewing. However, there is a general rule - the fabric should be transparent or translucent and have good plasticity to form beautiful folds. The most commonly used materials for sewing are veil, organza, silk, although now there are also cotton options, and even linen.

When combining curtains with curtains, look at the type of fabric - combine natural with natural, synthetic with synthetic.

For a classic style and oriental motives, muslin will be an excellent choice - simple and at the same time with extraordinary exotic notes.

In a rich interior, with luxurious furniture and bright elements, it will be right to purchase a veil.

The Art Nouveau living room will sparkle with new colors if you hang guipure tulle.

If you have chosen ethnic style or rustic motifs for the hall, linen or cotton tulle will be an appropriate solution.
