Interior Design Advice - Living Room

by Jo
(New York, USA)

I have just painted my living room a yellowy tan color. It has a green rug with maroon leather furniture. I am looking for any suggestions for the windows. These are quite a problem – there are 4 windows in the living room, but they are set in 2 pairs, with a 6 inch gap between the 2 in a pair. Do you have any suggestions for covering them? Would it be best to treat them as 4 separate windows, or two sets of two?

Please help with any interior design advice…

Thanks
Jo X

Try voile curtains
by: Charlotte

Hi Jo

Your decorating sounds very nice - lovely choice of colors.

How about some mid-toned, wood, venetian blinds? It's quite a modern look, but I think they would tone really well with the colors.

You could add some white, floaty, voiles to dress the windows, to lighten it all up, too. You could then easily have one section of this light fabric in between the 2 windows, and it would not impose too much on the room, or the window.

Otherwise, I would definitely treat the windows as 2 sets of 2: check out this advice.

Good luck with your decorating plans.

Treat as one space.
by: Ginny

Three pleated panels, one between the window pairs, one on each side, and one valance over the entire span would be a good solution. You could use narrow blinds for each pair of windows, if privacy is an issue.
