15 design options for windows
Windows themselves have a fairly standard configuration, without distinctive features. Therefore, the main task is to design the window so that it acquires an individual style and becomes the accent of the room.
Of course, windows are different – there are windows that have a very original shape, as well as different color frames. But this is more relevant for a country house, but in a city apartment to change the windows to the original and colored – not the most practical solution. A maximum of one window can be with a colored frame, and then the entire interior of the room will need to be “built” under this window. Here is what you can do, and it will be beautiful and practical:
- The frame around the window
The “undressed” window opening is not very decorative. Often, instead of traditional curtains, roll curtains or blinds are used, but the side space is not used in any way. Here in such cases, a beautiful baguette will help, decorating the window like a picture. “Ramu” can be made up of small frame posters, photos, or book shelves. - Stained glassIf a window in the apartment opens not the most beautiful view, and in addition there is enough light in this room, it makes sense instead of the usual windows to insert stained glass into it. You can use this idea in another way: any window can be decorated by pasting stained glass stickers on some windows, of course, not in the middle of the glass, but so that they do not obstruct the view from the window.
- Shutters.
This decor looks fresh and interesting, it is still unspread. In order to use the shutters, there must be enough free space on both sides of the window. They can be wooden with carved elements or painted, there are fabric stretch, and there are forged. - Beautiful windowsill
You can decorate a window sill - narrow can be laid out with tiles or mosaics, and on a large one arrange a seat with pillows that will be made of the same material as the curtains. - Shelves by the windowThe side of the window can be decorated with open shelves, of course, in the case when traditional curtains are not used. Shelves should not be too large, but their color should coincide with the color of the wall. You can fill the shelves with books with beautiful roots, or individually put various trinkets on them.
- Baskets on the windowsill
All flower pots can be arranged in the same woven kashpo. Especially this decor will be good in the kitchen or in the room, decorated in the style of Provence. - Colored glass
Or decorate the windowsill with glass vases of two colors. Colored glass beautifully reflects light - Colored frames
In the room, one window can be with a colored frame, but in this case, the entire interior of the room will need to be “build” under this window. - Panno instead of lambracin
In the kitchen or in the nursery, instead of lambrequin, you can use a panel - a wooden panel, forged ornament, children's drawings or a beautifully decorated herbarium - Houseplants
The traditional decoration of the windowsill is houseplants. And to use such decor, you do not need to be limited to only a window sill. You can hang additional shelves on the window. But do not use this technique in a dark room.
- Eaves and pick-upsCraps for curtains can be twice folded cuts of fabrics, braids, metal chains, beads, decorative brushes, brooches, clips, original large buttons.
- Pick-up decoration
Any, cornice and pickups can be decorated by “planting” an artificial flower, butterfly, suspension, brush on it. In the children's room, these can be small ivy toys. Well, in the style of country and eco, you can even attach a snag to the cornice - Curtains - panelsThis is an alternative to conventional, draping curtains. The panels are rectangles of fabric, at the bottom on the rack. They can be called “curtain-coupe”, as they move like the doors of a closet-coupe. Such panels are not difficult to make yourself.
- Pickup in the middle
The window with the help of draping can take any image. The main thing is to choose the right way to drape the fabric is picked up in the middle, and the window remains open. - Clear light curtains
This option is suitable for the kitchen or living room. Transparent curtains can be made to contrast the color of the walls or pick up in the main tone of the room.
