Curtains covering Doorways
“… and the very folds of the curtains contained secrets and sighs.”
Anaïs Ni
Adding curtains to your doorways not only adds personality and character but also makes your space seem quieter and cosier. Curtains lend quite a vivid entrance to your personal space while adding an element of privacy when you have someone over. Perhaps the best thing about them is that they can be temporary – so if you are bored or want to give a new look you can always change them.
Curtains give your space a quaint look, they also are a wonderful way to distinctly define and separate spaces whilst making a charming design statement. Apart from the aesthetics, they give you a number of other positives as well, here are some of them:
- They help frame your doorway.
- Whether summer or winter, they are an attractive solution to avoid loss of cool-air or heat from homes. A thick fabric curtain will curtail the cold air passing through a drafty entranceway.
- If your doorway features a fancy glass window or a sidelight, a set of curtains is a simple solution to give privacy to your place.
- It clearly enhances the division in a room sans a permanent wall or a doorway.
