When shopping for curtains, it's really easy to reach for a solid color or plain sheer. It's something that will harmonize with the room, sit beautifully in the background, and feel timeless. Unfortunately, though, that means patterned curtains are typically a completely underutilized component of contemporary design, when in reality, they can — and should — be the focal point of a well-designed space.
Introducing a subtle print or even a bold patterned accent to your window treatment ideas, especially in neutral rooms or spaces with a tonal color scheme, helps tie the space together. Depending on your intention, patterned curtains can echo the colors of a space, add a visual pop, or add a dynamic layer.
