For living and dining areas where a lot of entertaining happens, it’s best to celebrate natural light as much as possible. More light often enhances our moods, making semi-sheer or sheer curtains the perfect option for creating a welcoming space abundant with family memories. Additionally, living areas usually feature sliding or French doors that pair seamlessly with curtains. Carpet Court offers an extensive range of colours and fabrics for curtains, so it’s easy to find the perfect match, whatever your style.

Style & Colour
Window treatments play a critical role in the overall aesthetics of a home. Looking at the colour of floors, walls, timbers, and furniture in the room is crucial when deciding on the colour of your window treatments. When done correctly, they can complement the interiors and create the ideal finishing touch. Or they can be in contrasting colours to the palette of the interiors and make more of a statement. It depends on your preferences which way you want to go.
The modern approach is to use more neutral-coloured blinds in creams, whites, greys and sandy browns. These are so versatile they match effortlessly with almost any look.
