Curtains are cool

Once considered too traditional or simply not trendy enough, curtains are having a moment again

 

Beyond framing windows, they are being used as cupboard doors, as a feature behind beds, as separation between spaces, particularly in shared offices. Let's not deny just how versatile they are and their great contribution to the overall style and mood of a room.

Benefits of curtains

Drapes don't just block people from looking in through your windows. They serve functional purposes that can have great benefits for interiors.

  • They control light

  • They help dampen and absorb sound

  • They can help balance an asymmetrical room

  • They can add an element of colour

 

Seeing sheer

We all know and love drapery with rich colour, prints and patterns but let's show some appreciation for sheers. They are increasingly popular because of the softness and elegance they bring to a room. Another reason why sheers are more readily considered is the variety of contemporary designs and colours now available. Home Fabrics has a fantastic selection of sheers with unique texture, colourways, designs and varying opacity to suit your design project.

 

Eco-conscious curtains

As an industry leader, Home Fabrics is also proud to offer our clients drapery that is made of recycled or organic fibres. These designs are of the highest quality but the value added is knowing the product is more sustainable and contributes to a reduction of the overall environmental impact of a design.
