What are the features of fabric with a geometric pattern?
The ornament has been used since ancient times; it is the most characteristic color for textiles since its first production. This option for decorating fabric is pleasant in its simplicity and orderliness; it allows you to achieve the effect of tidying up any room. With the help of geometric patterns, the room becomes more alive and dynamic.
For a geometric pattern, as a rule, rapport is used - repeated repetition of the same pattern along the entire length of the fabric. The geometric pattern fits many interiors and emphasizes its style. However, this pattern may not be chosen for all styles and trends of home furnishings.
As with other curtain fabric patterns, there are several criteria to consider when choosing a geometric fabric pattern.
Choosing curtains with a geometric pattern
Room dimensions. Pay attention to the size of the room for which you are choosing curtains. If this is a large room, then most likely you are not limited in anything when choosing a pattern - both large and small patterns will look great. However, if the room is small, you should pay attention to a smaller pattern, as there is a greater chance of achieving the effect of a harmonious combination. A geometric pattern can visually enlarge or reduce a room, raise a low ceiling or, on the contrary, create the appearance of a lower ceiling.
Room style. For rooms in a classic or modern style, geometry is equally suitable. The greatest effect can be achieved by combining this fabric with the Baroque style. Many styles will do well with geometric patterned fabrics.
Compatibility with other elements of the room , such as walls and floors. Geometric patterns are found not only in textiles, but also quite often when decorating walls. The correct combination of wall geometry and textiles can only be achieved by a professional designer. If you are an amateur, then you should choose only one element of the room, which is decorated with geometric patterns. Remember that there should not be too much geometry. Patterns on curtains can also be found, for example, on sofa cushions, but you should not use it on carpet or walls either.
A good solution is to combine curtains with geometric patterns with plain curtains. Combined window design options allow you, on the one hand, to enjoy a geometric pattern, and on the other hand, to create a fairly calm interior.
For which styles is it better to use a geometric pattern on curtain fabric?
The best combinations of such fabric are achieved in the styles of high-tech, minimalism, avant-garde, expressionism, and Japanese style. a good result can be achieved by using curtains with a geometric pattern in a classic style or an English interior.
Different styles of room decoration and colorful curtains
Floral curtains do more than just decorate a room. They will cheer you up, remind you of warm summer and gentle sunshine, and create a festive atmosphere in the room. A pattern with roses, bells and other plants looks great in rooms decorated in the following styles.
Country. No rural motif is complete without flowers. They decorate furniture upholstery, wallpaper, various decorative elements and, of course, windows. For country, a small pattern is better suited, and it can be luxurious roses or simple, but incredibly cute field daisies. The tone of the print can be either pastel or brighter.
Provence. Although this style is a type of country, it is more delicate and elegant, and also prefers an abundance of flowers, but not variegated ones. Calmer and cooler shades are preferable: delicate greens, unobtrusive blues, exquisite pallor of roses. On curtains you can combine floral motifs with calm patterns.
Vintage and shabby chic. In a room decorated in these styles, it is extremely important to create a retro atmosphere. It can be rustic or, conversely, emphatically luxurious furniture. But it should show signs of time, such as abrasions. The furniture decoration contains plant motifs, including an abundance of flowers. This also applies to curtains on the windows. Shabby chic is cute roses in mostly light shades. And if there is a whole scattering of such roses on the curtains, then the interior will only benefit from this.

And even if all this looks colorful, then it’s worth remembering nature - after all, different plants can coexist in the same garden, but it will look quite harmonious.
Modern style. Designers working in this direction prefer designs with large flowers - clearly drawn and spectacular. There should be a minimum of colors; as a rule, neutral monochrome shades are chosen: gray-black, beige-brown, black and white. Modern style does not accept variegation: you can only focus on the colors, there should not be too many of them.
