Everyone knows the curtains – a necessary attribute of any dwelling. They give additional comfort and create a feeling of comfort. But how often do, even knowing the importance of this element of the decor, we ask for professional help? Based on our experience and vision of the interior of the unprofessional, we are often the result is not what you expect. In the meantime, spent money, time and effort can not come back …
Sew or sew?
Curtains – the soul of the house. They decorate the lightest and visible detail the room – the window. Curtains, drapes, curtains, curtain rods, curtain create a feeling of warmth and comfort, maintain the general style of the interior. They are of great practical importance, protected from cold air from outside, bright light and noise. If you want to make such an important piece of decor perfectly fit into your d?cor, ask for help from professionals – designers sewing curtains.
Expert help here, we can say is vital. This is especially true of expensive elegant interiors. Skeptics remind you when the project designer takes into account all the nuances – the size of the overall style and space, functionality and usability patterns and fabrics. It will take into account even the smallest details. Piers, outlets, and battery, ceiling height and room lighting will not go unnoticed.
Do not forget about fashion. Professionals equipped with modern materials and master all the methods of processing window, watching the latest developments by attending annual exhibitions in Europe. A simple view of case logs will not give the layman a complete picture of current trends and innovations. Moreover, the rookie is unlikely to be able to correctly use the information about new products, will not be able to “tie” them to your interior. Therefore, design space cloth must surely occur with the direct participation of specialists. Independence in such a matter may result in wasted time and money. When referring to the designer sewing curtains, bedspreads and pillows require a minimum customer effort, and the result is more than justify any monetary investment.
According to the network designer curtain salons “Avantage” Larisa Mishina, the main reasons for treatment to a professional are:
client is afraid of being branded a man without taste;
As a professional in the business, the customer respects the work of another professional, trust him;
work with a designer fashion.
In the end, not so much matter which of the motifs will be crucial – the main thing that the joint work of the designer and the customer was a real collaboration. To do so, both should be able to listen to and hear each other. Then the desired result must be reached, and a partnership will enrich the creative sense of both.
Intense color of curtains and cushions contrasts well with light walls bedroom.
Veil emphasizes original design and color of the curtains.
In this room will accommodate office, so curtains should disperse and soften the light from the street.
From bright sunlight to protect the premises roman shades, complemented by elegant tulle.
Familiarity
So, to the designer was able to correctly approach the fulfillment of the individual order, we must at least roughly to acquaint him with the general concept of home. Habits of the hosts, assigning rooms, tastes and preferences should be reflected in this project. Get answers to these questions, the designer selects the colors and density of the fabric, functionality and practicality of the model.
The main decorative element of the window – elegant cornice forged.
To more accurately determine the color of the fabric and make at least a rough estimate of the order, the specialist is sometimes enough to see a little piece of wallpaper or fabric, which is made from upholstery. It will take him and information about the most insignificant elements of decor, with whom the customer wishes to link the textile. For example, the color of your favorite pillow or motifs of exquisite lamps may indirectly coupled with a fabric curtain and to influence the selection of the eaves.
Designers need to know the dimensions of windows and piers, if any. However, experts are almost always leaves the object in order to study in detail the situation – perhaps it will encourage him to kakomunibud interesting solution. Designer Studio “Eclectic” Victoria Alfimenko believes that travel to the object is required. And if the professional is dealing with a large room, will arrive a few times.
First visit – a common acquaintance, and to “get used” in the interior, feel the spirit of each room, take some time. Visit the facility during construction, the textile designer, it makes no sense. An exception is the case when the customer wants to install curtain rods with electric, mounted at this stage of repair.
In most cases connected to the textile design is appropriate when there are already almost all the interior elements. Colors and texture of the upholstery and flooring, and their decorative richness, stylistic direction will influence the selection of fabrics and window design as a whole, then, is it a delicate, neutral or will complement the semantic and color dominant.

Imagine that you come to the well-known fashion designer and book his dress, which will be sewn under your figure with all the features of your body. Of course, it will look at you better than a dress from the store ready-made things. The answer to the question, buy ready-made curtains and sew custom-made, obvious to me. Of course, should contact the designer, who will treat very carefully the development models of curtains or veils, to the selection of the main fabric and lining, curtain rods and accessories.

When I decided to decorate in a new window in the living room curtains in the fashion design project had neither the time nor the money. So, I just bought a veil of two types of one color (peach). Two transparent piece of cloth I made the first layer, and three more – with a barely noticeable pattern – gathered in heavy folds on the sides and in the middle. I really like it happened unexpectedly elegant.

I believe in the design of the windows do not need to save money. You can, of course, buy ready-made curtains, hang them and do not pay attention to the fact that they simply lie on the floor, collecting dust, but also does not completely cover the window. In the end, someone will come to them, and a cornice with curtains fly down – as luck would have at the most inopportune moment. Do not forget that the d?cor of windows – a kind of yardstick of taste inhabitants of the house, figure not only their wealth but also the character and lifestyle. Therefore, relying on this issue for themselves inappropriate.

Referring to the studio on textile interior design, I’ll briefly felt a designer, just telling a professional as much as possible about your color preferences and tastes. The result of our joint work – curtains, which for many years to become an interior decoration, and not just a conveyor products, which spoil a beautiful view out the window.
Calmness, serenity only!
In any endeavor requires, above all, patience. So, since you have taken a prudent decision to seek professional help, do not rush things. Quality and fast in this case – incompatible concepts. As a rule, individual textile design is created from fine European fabrics, which must be ordered or, at best, to bring in stock (if any stock program).
Lightweight fabric visually enhances the bedroom space.
Creating a sketch, sewing and installation of finished products will not take long, but the delivery order delaying the process. Work on yourself dizaynproektom may take a week, but see the end result in all its glory you will only a half or two months. If the windows and furniture must be put in the shortest possible time, tissues are selected on the basis of the available range. So, hurry is no good for the design of the windows.
Customer is also important to determine how much he is willing to spend money on this project. Today’s market offers a variety of tissues in texture and value, that even with a small budget you can order some very interesting options. Much depends on the complexity of the model, the cost per meter of fabrics and their flow from the eaves and accessories, as well as the size of the window. However, a professional designer is kept in a realistic budget and if necessary, always offer a cheaper option.
And the last. Typically, development of the design project is a free application for the order, if discussed directly in the cabin. Check out also the designer for a consultation is charged as a separate service. Therefore, if a customer on a tight budget, it can save money on designer’s visit, making pictures of the interior from various angles and in advance of preparing samples of wallpaper and furnishing fabrics. Note also that the order may be made of materials from the studio or tissue of the customer, although the last option for many salons are not taken. The reason is clear: the risks insured damage tissue very small amount of the cost.

The designer’s job is very interesting, but at the same time very complex and demanding. And it’s not that every object – a new problem, new experiments. Each of them is the client with his taste, his vision of his home. When the client and the designer’s tastes are the same – this is the best option. But if there is disagreement, the designer should listen to the wishes of the customer and then reworking the information correctly, provide a project that will like the owner of the house and it did not go contrary to the opinion of a professional. Such behavior is not due to fear of taking responsibility, and fear that even the most stylish and beautiful design will be for the customer, “stranger” and incomprehensible. No matter how strong was the attraction to the designer’s creative expression, we must not forget that to proceed to the wishes of the customer who wants to see your house is not a platform for creative experimentation, and the warm and cozy “nest.”

Many are blind to the order as a “purchase age”. Such an attitude makes the buyer the stress associated with the choice. The designer can suggest a solution. But the customer must understand that the final choice is still with him. If the proposed version of the designer in doubt, do not hesitate to talk about it. Any proposals must first pass through itself, through its perception, starting from the general concept of home. Decide that you are home: a place where you are secluded, welcoming guests and creatively implement? Think about your color preferences and model. Perhaps you like an abundance of cloth or, conversely, the minimum amount. Decide which fabric you prefer: transparent, translucent or dense, flowing material or slightly “twisted” like taffeta. It is useful to look at interior design magazines. Even if you do not find in them what you like, then at least realize that you probably will not suit. Visit two or three salons and ask what it costs to sew, learn whether you have provided services for the delivery and hanging curtains. Pay special attention to any collection of fabrics available in stores. I suggest to choose the one which presents not one, but the order of ten different manufacturers (suppliers) of materials. In this case, you will have the choice not only by the tissues, but also on their value.

A common mistake many customers is that they are buying before the curtain, as compiled dizaynproekt curtains. Forcing the designer to scope the need for certain models, the customer often deprive themselves of the pleasure of seeing its interior a truly harmonious and complete. At the same time do not be afraid of prices for design services. In the end, seek help from professionals is still profitable, because a specialist art education and taste, as well as vast knowledge of fabrics as textile, furniture market, etc. This model can vary considerably and curtains to save time and money to the customer. Remember: textiles could “spoil” expensive interior or on the contrary, it is advantageous to provide even the most simple.

If the apartment is decorated in contemporary style, the owner may own and decorate a window, as in this case allowed a simple model of curtains – without any frills (swags, drapes and complex perekidov). Classic interior requires more complex models, which create without the help of a designer is almost impossible. In addition, the expert can go pick up tissue, given the color and texture of the walls and furniture. He knows what material is the style of the room, not discordant with the surroundings. Professional intelligently selects the method of fixation (rings, grommets, tape, Velcro). One of the most important steps – creating a sketch, which is performed manually with pencils and designer shows the customer how it will look after your window. To draw a single object, as a rule, 2-3 sketch, giving the customer the opportunity to choose the most cost-efficient option and appearance.

Do not ever even experienced designer with first time can understand what the client wants. It is therefore important not only to know what the customer prefers fabric – matte or shiny, soft, flowing or tight as taffeta, but also to understand the styles and preferences, to determine the functionality of the curtains, to deal with the color scheme. Sketches just need to make a scale, especially when creating complex classical swags, the client can see the real proportion of the product. And in the end we would like to add: an experienced designer will never agree with the arguments of the customer, if he is sure that the proposed client version does not match the overall style of the room and the actual preferences of the house.
To see once …
Not impose its views, the designer is taking shape representation of the customer and creates a harmonious interior design. Sketch is drawn, usually on paper and pencil to quickly provide an overall view of the product. Of the proposed multiple design options the customer chooses the one that came to his liking. If he already has his thoughts about the design of windows, it is possible sewing curtains for his sketch. In fact, many customers are offered a truly brilliant idea. From the designer need only to edit them and “translate to the language,” as well as add their experience and knowledge for successful implementation.
Once constructed model of curtains agreed and the customer, it is taken for the true masters of curtain business. Technologists closely monitoring the latest developments in the manufacture of curtains. Using the often unique methods of cutting and tailoring, they achieve superior quality products. At the same time as the designer of the project author traces the execution of orders at all stages. Under his leadership, the final stage of the install curtain rods and hang curtains ready-made, and gaze customer appears transformed, renovated house.
So, draw the window – quite a complex art that requires and taste, knowledge and style. Remember, a professional approach to interior design will help create a unique space in itself is a work of art. And do not forget the most important thing: trust yourself and trust the designer – then do it!
