2020 Trends for Custom Drapery for Homes
Curtains and draperies have existed for nearly as long as windows have. As long as we have been able to see inside and outside of our homes through windows, we have also needed window treatments to provide us with the light control and privacy that windows don’t provide on their own. Curtains and draperies predate hard window coverings like blinds and shutters, and are still beloved by many who are looking to bring an elegant, traditional feel to their homes. But that doesn’t mean that curtains and draperies are outdated. In fact, they are subject to the same trends as any other type of home décor. Because all of our soft window fashions are custom-made, we are here to help you chase any trend your heart desires. Keep reading to let the team at Larry’s Design Center tell you about 2020 trends for custom drapery for homes near Long Island, NY.
Trend #1- Go Monochrome
Generally when it comes to home décor trends as we move into the 2020’s, we are seeing a step back from the sleek, minimal decorating schemes that dominated the 2010’s. But while the rest of your home may be living it up, your curtains may be a good place to scale things back. Black and white are big for 2020 trends for custom drapery, and in addition to being eternally stylish, they can also help you take more control of the natural light that comes into your space. White curtains will deflect light, spreading it around and providing you with additional illumination, while black curtains will absorb light and provide you with more darkness. Monochrome colors really allow your drapes to do some heavy lifting.
Trend #2- Double Up
Find yourself struggling to choose between black and white for your curtains? Then 2020 trends for custom drapery have you covered. One of the biggest trends for curtains right now is to actually use two different types of curtains at your windows. This can be executed in several different ways, allowing you to embrace contrast in terms of color, fabric, texture or pattern. Not only will this make your windows visually fascinating, but it also provides you with an opportunity to mix and match functionalities to get the most from your windows.
Trend #3-Mix and Match
Our windows have to do a lot for us, which is why sometimes curtains and draperies just aren’t enough. Whether they aren’t getting the job done in terms of function, or they aren’t providing you with the aesthetic pleasure you’re looking for, that doesn’t mean it’s time to give up. Instead, one of our favorite 2020 trends for custom drapery is to pair your drapes up with other types of window treatments. We offer the full selection of custom Hunter Douglas window coverings, and a well-made curtain or drape pairs beautifully with a set of blinds or shutters.
