Pelmets in the bedroom

A bedroom is a place that should give peace, envelop in sweet slumber and inspire good and light thoughts. Each trifle in the interior of the bedroom should help a person to relax, calmly plunge into the sweet world of Morpheus and have a good rest. The morning in a really good bedroom will seem kind and promising, and the main helper of a good awakening can be safely called a high-quality curtained window.

Lambrequin has recently become an integral part of bedrooms. This type of decor is becoming fashionable again and increasingly attracts the attention of many interior designers.

How to choose curtains?

To the morning sun was not annoyingly bright or too inconspicuous, it is important to choose the right textiles for windows. Today, to decide on the choice of curtains for the bedroom is not very easy. Textile stores and building hypermarkets offer an unimaginable variety of forms and types: from classicoptions for the combination of light curtains of tulle and heavy curtains to minimalist evroshtor or complex multi-layer combined options

In order not to be mistaken with the choice, it is worth considering the following practical points:

  1. Sun or shade? This is the first question that should arise when buying curtains in a bedroom. If the bright sun shines through the window in the morning, then there is an urgent need to darken the windows. Options with heavy curtains may be suitable for this purpose, or an option with blinds may be provided. If the sun's rays do not break the morning nap - it is quite possible to do without heavy fabrics and arrange the window with light textiles.
  2. North or south? This question also plays an important role. If during the winter time the window becomes too cold, and it is not advisable to replace it with a more modern yet, you should pay attention to heavy warm curtains - they will become an additional barrier to cold air.

Having identified the practical side, you should pay attention to aesthetic issues. Window textiles are such a part of the design that can significantly improve the overall look of the room, but also greatly simplify it.It is important that everything looks harmonious. In perfectly planned bedrooms, all textiles are thought out as a single whole: fabrics for curtains, bedspreads, decorative pillows, seat covers on the armchairs, and others are selected to be as similar or identical as possible. In this case, textiles can contrast with the overall color of the room or complement it, enrich with new shades

In addition, only on the basis of the overall situation of the room, you can decide whether to decorate the window with a curtain of weightless tulle or a more elaborate veil, decorate it with a stiff lambrequin or light, choose an option with or without a curtain.

Models

In the world of professional designers, the following main types of lambrequins are distinguished:

  • "Bando" - This name comes from the French word “bandage”. Such lambrequins are sewn from rigid types of fabrics that keep their shape well, do not stretch and do not deform. Hard lambrequins can have very diverse forms: they can be asymmetrical (more elongated on one side), straight, similar to a belt or border. Only such a lambrequin can completely hide a baguette and create the feeling of its complete absence.
"Bando"
  • "Jabot" - this word means “corrugated finish”, however this is not an accurate description of light lambrequins. This type of jewelry is also called “swag” or “garland”. This lambrequin is made of light fabrics, it looks very airy and weightless. Decorated with such a product window does not weigh and does not weigh on the general situation of the room. This option is perfect for lovers of bright colors in the interior.
"Jabot"
  • Combined. This type of lambrequins has become especially popular lately, because it perfectly combines the ease of the Jabot and the intricacy of the Bando. With such a decoration, the room will become special and will never seem simple.
Combined view
  • "Kokilie" - This is a small detail that, as a rule, complements the light lambrequins, giving them a more sophisticated and sophisticated look.

In case it is necessary to add corners of a lambrequin, it is possible to make not a whole "chill mold", but its half. Thus, the part will have one smooth edge. This option is often called the "tie".

  • "Swag"- this is a detail that makes the pelmet more theatrical and rich. Recently, the Swag has been subjected to a mass of experiments.If earlier we could see lambrequins everywhere with a classical equilateral Swag, now its new forms are often found. For example, lambrequins with asymmetrical swag are very popular.

Also quite often there are products with a swag, on the one hand passing into a cascade. This version of this detail allows you to visually lengthen or expand the space in the room.

Color variety

Today it is difficult to surprise someone with a lambrequin in the bedroom, but the colors may be quite unexpected. So, for example, in recent times, black is becoming increasingly popular in the arrangement of a bedroom. As a rule, the black lambrequin looks very minimalist, it is sewn from heavy drape fabric in order to complement or enrich the curtains. Also popular are heavy lambrequins of dark burgundy shades, combined with beige and all sorts of deep colors. As for light lambrequins, there are no restrictions here: green, lilac, and gold items can be found.

The only thing that designers advise is not to get too carried away by the combination of shades.Lambrequin, made of three or more colors is rarely a good option.

New and interesting ideas

Recently, the laconic interiors in the classical style have become increasingly popular: straight lines, simple shapes and soothing shades. Very useful in this situation is black textile. It is he who perfectly complements the warm beige shades of wallpaper and flooring, as well as successfully emphasize the rich texture of wooden furniture. A heavy lambrequin made of black drapery fabric combined with a simple or beige-coated pattern will give the bedroom a frill and aristocracy.

Perfectly complement the design and organically combine all the details of such trifles as bedspreads and pads, made in a dark color scheme. In addition, this option will be an excellent protection against the morning sun and summer heat.

The most popular gain complex, beautiful openwork gang.

This decoration will give grace to absolutely any window, but do not forget that it is very demanding to care. This type of lambrequin is easy to damage when reading, stretching, deforming or tearing.
