Window design is one of the difficult tasks. You can, of course, hang the first to hang the first curtain, but ... windows - an important part of the interior formation and the impression of your dwelling depends on the choice. And I want it to be beautiful, cozy, comfortable and memorable. One of the opportunities to give a house or apartment is your own style - choose beautiful and comfortable curtains on the windows. And if you want them to be more modern and comfortable, pay attention to the Roman curtains. These are those that can lay down to the window and are going to beautiful folds. How the Roman curtains will look in the interior depends on how exactly you will pick up the color and fabric. That's what we will say.
What is Roman curtains and what they happen
Romans call curtains are a smooth cloth, which when closing is collected up, forming folds. This type of window design is convenient if you need short curtains to the windowsill. One of the main advantages of Roman curtains - they occupy a minimum of space, as they can be attached to the window frame. With this method of installation, the windowsill can be used as desktop.
The device of the Roman curtain is simple. There is a top plank to which a sticky tape is attached, there is a canvas with a weighting agent at the very bottom and sewn on top of the withdrawal sticky ribbon. When installing, on a frame or wall above the window opening, a strap is fastened with a velcro, and then the curtains themselves "matter". Such a device allows you to easily wash it.
Like the Roman curtains look like
To the cloth of the Roman curtain climbs up and collected folds, with a step of 20 to 30 cm to the canvas, the rods are sewn into which the rods are inhibited. When you close the curtains, the rods climb up, the web forms folds. This is the original way to come up with ancient Romans.
Roman curtains are two types: classic (left) and cascading (right). Different with the presence / absence of folds in open state
There are two types of Roman curtains: classic (ordinary) and cascading. Classic in open state is a smooth canvas, cascade always have some folds. The second option is better fits into the Art Deco style, country or traditional design. But, as Roman curtains look in the interior, it depends not as much on the type as from the selected fabric. It is they who ask the main "sound." So, mostly, you pay attention to the qualities and type of fabric.

Separately, it is worth mentioning the windows. They are not easy to arrange them. One of the options is the Roman curtain on each window. Since the installation is very simple, no difficulties will arise. The only difficulty - it will be necessary to open and close all the curtains, and it takes time, and in time it begins to annoy.
Advantages and disadvantages
The main advantage of the Roman curtains - they look well and in the folded, and in the "working" state, allow you to close the window with high quality, without cleansing. Well, and they like most of them with their laconic form. Moreover, using different tissues, you can make models for different styles - from strict minimalism to a romantic provence.

Not only are Roman curtains in the kitchen interior look original, they are also functional than the usual options.
The disadvantages of Roman curtains more refer to the features of operation:
- If the curtain closes not the sash separately, but the entire window, open it to the ventilation during the lowered curtain problematic. To get to the handle, you need or raise the speed slightly above the handles, or come to it under it. Taking into account the weighting at the bottom it is not too simple.
- After washing, you have to disassemble a bunch of ropes that stretch to each cross.
- In the folded state, Roman curtains occupy some place. That is, during the day they close some piece of glass. What specifically - depends on the model and method of installation.
These are the main advantages and cons of Roman curtains. There is another moment, but it is not important for everyone: with closed curtains it will not work "for a second it looks out the window." Such a flaw ...
How to choose Size
The width of the Roman curtain depends on whether it will be common to the window, or will be its curtain on each sash. For installation on the sash, measure the width of the glass on each sash taking into account the strokes. It will be the minimum value, but the glass will be accurately closed and no one can look inside. The maximum width depends on the width of the frame, but note that there should be at least a small lumen between adjacent curtains, so in this case it is necessary to look for dimensions very close to measurements, otherwise you simply will not be able to secure them.
Tightly Roman curtains should close the glass and be a little wider
If the Roman curtain will be on the entire window, its canvas should be wider than the window opening at least 5 cm. In principle, it is possible to navigate the width of the window sill - it will be better to look visually if the curtains and windowsill will be the same.
With this method of installation, focus on the width of the window opening
With a length (height) somewhat easier: it should not be less than the window opening or the height of the sash. If there are only models in standard sizes, it is unstable. The appearance or functioning will not be worse. There is only one limitation: the maximum height should be less than 3 meters, since the length of the thread in the mechanism of the Roman curtains is not more than 3 meters.
Roman curtains in the interior
Roman curtains in the interior of kitchens, children's rooms, in the living rooms and cabinets can be seen in combination with Tulle. With such a combination, they "work" with night curtains, because they are sewn from dense tissues that do not pass light. Another option is solo, without any additions. So you can use them on glazed balconies or loggias, in any room, if you do not bother that in the afternoon you can look at your windows. That's how it is simple "Roman" without additions - you can often see in private houses, where the windows come to the backyard and no nobody there.
Dense and translucent fabrics can be used in different ways.

Sometimes Roman curtains use instead of Tulle. In this case, they are sewn from translucent fabrics. In this embodiment, perfectly fit into minimalism or modern style, where the folds are accepted only conditionally. A smooth cloth is what you need. However, keep in mind that heating radiators should be closed with decorative screens or standing under the furniture window. Exception - exclusive models of heating devices that can serve as an interior decoration.
In the kitchen
Roman curtains in the kitchen interior are appropriate for almost any design style. Most often, they can be seen on those kitchens where the windowsill is used as a working surface. It is difficult to come up with a more relevant alternative. Space can be, unless, rolled curtains, but they are not so effective.
