Curtain design and window shape

Of course, most often the window has a standard rectangular shape. It can be narrower in a small room or a wide three-leaved room in a spacious bedroom. This geometry is easy to design and has no limitations in design.

However, there are also atypical types of windows. For example:

• Arched. Stylists advise placing the cornice above the rounding level - thus, with open curtains you can enjoy the beauty of the archway.
• Inclined. The optimal solution will be roll or Roman curtains, blinds, bamboo cloth.
