The living rooms of most standard houses have a balcony. Its presence cannot be attributed to the shortcomings of the interior or architectural flaws in the layout, however, it still creates some difficulties when decorating the opening with curtains. We offer you a selection of photos with new beautiful curtains for the living room for a window with a balcony door. The photo clearly shows that it is possible to decorate a rather complex opening not only practically, but also very beautifully.

Registration requirements

When choosing a method for decorating a window located next to the balcony door, it is worth considering two main factors.

1. 1 Room illumination. Quantity sunlight entering the hall depends not only on the location of the room. Even if the windows face south side, a balcony, especially a glazed and curtained one, will “let through” only part of the rays - in this case there is no point in choosing thick curtains.

   If the balcony is not glazed, and the windows of the hall are large enough, you will have to think about more reliable protection from bright glare and prying eyes.

2. 2 Possibility of free movement. Balcony - very functional part apartments: this is where many people prefer to dry clothes, store some things, and spend free time(especially if it is equipped with everything necessary for this). When designing the opening, think about how many times a day each family member will “run” back and forth. If there is a lot, make the exit as functional as possible and make sure that the textile curtains do not have to be “wrung” or wrapped around the heating pipe, so that they cannot even be accidentally pinched by the door.

You can take any idea as the basis for the future design of your room, however, do not forget to determine the degree of illumination of the room and select the material for curtains taking this parameter into account.

Blinds, Roman and roller blinds

Vertical, horizontal blinds made from various materials and roller blinds are laconic, occupy a minimum of usable space without overloading the interior of the room, and are very easy to care for. Undoubtedly, they meet all the requirements for the decor of a window combined with access to a balcony:

• do not interfere with free passage;
• have the ability to regulate the degree of illumination (some modern models can even be equipped with a control panel - they can be opened and closed remotely).

The only drawback: roller blinds and blinds (even the most “warm” and “cozy” colors) look very official without additional decor. It is for this reason that we recommend framing them with light curtains, which will not block the exit to the balcony, but will add completeness to the opening. However, if you like minimalist interiors, feel free to refuse additional curtains.

A combination of curtains and Roman blinds would also be an excellent option.

Traditional straight curtains

Owners of apartments with windows that are disproportionately small compared to the balcony door should pay attention to classic straight-cut curtains. Dense side panels in combination with light, light, but opaque tulle will hide this dissonance and combine the exit to the balcony and window opening into a single harmonious composition.

Straight curtains in the living room on a window with a balcony are perfectly complemented by tiebacks with magnets. It not only looks stylish, but is also very practical.

Curtains with eyelets, although they cannot be called a new product, are back in fashion again. And this is not at all surprising, since they look great in any modern interior. In addition, eyelets are a very good choice for a window with a balcony door, since such curtains will be easy to move aside.

When choosing fabric for tulle and curtains, remember that the balcony will have to be opened quite often: the length of the curtains should take into account the ability to fully open the sash without damaging the textiles with excessive tension. Don't forget about two more factors:

• sufficient light transmission of curtains;
• color scheme that matches the main interior.

Undoubtedly, this option is not as practical as the previous one, but it is traditional curtains are able to “smooth out” the obvious disproportion in the size of the door and windows. In addition, using this method of decoration, you can hide an overly large radiator, which is a dubious decoration for the living room.

Asymmetrical compositions

The obvious discrepancy between the sizes of the door and adjacent windows, described in the previous paragraph, is found everywhere and needs to be “camouflaged.” If the option with ordinary straight curtains seems too casual for the hall, take a closer look at all sorts of asymmetrical options.

Balance too big compared to window opening You can enter the balcony using an asymmetrical lambrequin (more long side should go down onto the window, and the short one should cover the door without interfering with the passage). Compose the tulle that complements the design in two parts - this will greatly simplify access to the balcony and protect the delicate fabric from damage. The lambrequin can go down to the floor and only on one side - the opposite door. This decor also looks very attractive and organic. If desired, the veil or organza covering the entrance to the balcony can be secured with a tieback made of the same material as the lambrequin. This will give the design not only practicality, but also a complete look.

Light curtains

If the balcony, the exit to which is located in the hall, is glazed and curtained, the room window can be decorated with one tulle from or. This will allow you to beautifully decorate the opening without darkening the room.

Since this option does not provide for the presence of thick curtains, you will have to forget about the “separate” tulle of two parts - it simply will not be possible to combine two light fabrics into one composition.

When choosing solid tulle, add one and a half to two meters to the width of the wall with the opening. Material of sufficient length can be assembled into beautiful folds - not only aesthetically pleasing, but also allowing you to open the balcony without damaging the delicate thin fabric.

To fasten light curtains, you should choose plastic or metal eyelets: if the door needs to be opened as wide as possible, you can move the tulle without any problems. The main thing is that the color of the tulle should be in harmony with the interior of the room: it is not at all necessary to give preference to snow-white material!

Kiseya

One more fashionable novelty 2017 - thread curtains or, as they are also called, muslin. These curtains look very unusual and beautiful. Thin flowing threads create an extraordinary play of light in the room. You can choose a single-color curtain option or create a composition of two or more colors. In addition, there are thread curtains with beads, flowers or other decorative elements. This option for decorating a window with a balcony is not only beautiful, but also very practical. You won't have to constantly move the curtain aside to get onto the balcony.

In the photo beautiful combination muslin with curtains and drapes. This combination makes the window decoration sophisticated and interesting.

Japanese curtains

A rather non-standard option for decorating a balcony door are Japanese curtains. This is exactly your option if you are a fan of minimalist interiors in an oriental or European style.

In the photo, a fashionable novelty for 2017 is Japanese panels; such curtains look great on windows with a balcony in modern interiors.

Make a choice in favor Japanese curtains It’s worth it if your family uses the balcony very actively:

• the fabric fixed to the frame moves along the guides: it is simply impossible to damage it when opening the door;
• the material is impregnated special composition, repelling dust and preventing contamination: with frequent open door practically on the street this is important.

Assess the size of the windows and balcony doors in your living room, their proportionality; think about how – light or dark – you want yours to look like. Based on this information, choose the opening design method that suits you.

Any of the five options presented above is thoughtful, functional and at the same time not devoid of aesthetics: by giving it individuality and modifying it in accordance with your own needs, you can make the room truly beautiful and harmonious.

Good landing area creative imagination– this is the design of curtains for a balcony door. Why her? Everything is very simple: the balcony block is asymmetrical. What makes working with this object more difficult is its versatility and the presence of a battery.

Room with balcony block can become both the highlight of the interior of any apartment and its disadvantage. In order not to spoil the interior of the room with improper design, you need to know small nuances.

There are several important requirements determined by the functions of the balcony that should be taken into account when designing a window with a balcony door:

To better understand what your room specifically needs, let’s look at everything for a window with a balcony door.

Veils, curtains and thread curtains.

Traditional methods of decorating a window with a balcony door have always been very popular. And, if we take into account the requirements already known to us, then everyone can do this.

Important in this type of design is the selection of materials that will be used in the design. Curtains going over balcony door, are frequently used, so fabrics need to be selected that are wear-resistant, durable, weakly absorb dirt and dust, and are easy to clean. To decorate a window with a balcony door with curtains, it is better not to create lush and massive draperies, this will complicate their use. But this does not mean that the curtains on the balcony door should be in the style of strict minimalism.

Rooms with access to a balcony are often less bright. They do not require curtains at all. But they are the ones who set the unique style and comfort. In case of weak exposure to sunlight, it is worth using light-colored curtains. For miniature rooms with low ceilings great solution there will be curtains - veils. They are the ones who will create style, comfort, atmosphere and at the same time let in as much rays of sun as possible.

Thread curtains or thread curtains are very popular in this matter.

They solve many issues at the same time: unhindered access to the balcony, easy to wash/clean, do not require ironing, create comfort and a feeling of intimacy.

Living room and bedroom.

Here you can already take care of beauty! We remember that in a small room it is not advisable to use complex, dark shades in the design of windows. This can have a depressing effect on both hosts and guests and keep them in constant tension. Decorating with lambrequins is also not very good in rooms with low ceilings. They will put pressure on those present.

Do not forget that the window coverings should allow you to freely use the balcony, as well as freely allow you to close and assemble the curtains for adjustment. light lighting rooms.

The ideal solution would be curtains with an Austrian touch, or a translucent composition of curtains with a soft or hard lambrequin and contrasting curtains.

Children's room.

This is the only room in which the design depends not on the designer or owner, but on the child. Therefore, there are a lot of nuances that cannot be predicted without knowing the preferences and needs of the little person.

In our opinion, curtains for a window with a balcony door in this room should be divided into several stages:

If it is not possible to change the curtain decor depending on the growing up of the child, it is better to immediately choose a composition from blinds/Roman shades (for good regulation of the flow of sunlight) and fabric decoration (to ensure comfort and completeness of the room’s interior).

Decorating a window in a room with a balcony door can take more time than decorating any other window, but it’s worth it. The balcony is definitely an advantage. It gives you the opportunity to play with the color and texture of the fabric. And, taking into account all the needs of this architectural unit, you can get a non-standard, unique compositional solution. Which will give harmony of warmth, comfort and practicality.

Curtains for the balcony door can be purchased ready-made or sewn with your own hands - any of the options will beautifully complement the room.

What to consider when choosing?

The kitchen area is the place where apartment residents spend a lot of time. The room must be decorated in a calm and cozy style, awaken the desire to snack. If furnishing the kitchen interior is not a problem, then the process of choosing suitable curtains for the balcony door is accompanied by difficulties.

Classic kitchen space has a square or rectangular shape. It follows that the balcony door is often located opposite the entrance to the kitchen. This layout is considered acceptable and will allow you to choose curtains for the opening. In the future, they will not interfere with free movement around the kitchen.

Product selection criteria:

• Opening type. The balcony opening in the kitchen can be represented by several options: a separate door and a whole window block in combination with the door. Thanks to this indicator The width of the product is calculated. Besides, additional elements the interior's side and bottom views will influence the choice of height.
• Availability radiator If a heating radiator is placed under the window unit, you must choose a shortened curtain. The situation is complicated by placing the battery in only one part of the block: then you will have to take a medium-length model. If the radiator serves a decorative function, choose a long curtain.

• Product material. The kitchen is a room where moisture, grease, fumes and steam are always present. Due to these features, choose only dense and easy-to-clean window products. If the balcony door is located close to the stove, it would be wise to purchase not a fabric model, but blinds. They are easy to clean with water.
• Freedom of exit. As you know, if the balcony door goes through the kitchen, then the frequency of access to it is high. In addition, the door and windows are constantly opened to ventilate the room. Choose a product that does not obstruct passage. For example, a light curtain made of thin fabric or a blind-type option.

• Selection of cornice. Choose a durable cornice made of wood or metal, plastic options would be inappropriate here. Firstly, all the carbon deposits from the stove will settle on the plastic curtain rod, and it will be difficult to wash it off. Secondly, too frequent use will lead to rapid failure of a low-quality plastic cornice.
• Amount of natural light. The kitchen should always have natural light from the window. You should not deliberately block it with other objects, and also choose thick and dark fabric. Better provide the premises with good throughput light, making the curtain thin and light.

The main criteria for selecting curtains for a balcony door are that they should not be lace, have a lot of decor and be too long. The product should be easy to clean and wash, dry quickly and not be too dense.

Curtain colors

The choice of color affects the overall perception of the environment in the kitchen. If you pick too dark curtains– they will not be able to let light into the room, and a gloomy atmosphere will arise. If you choose too bright colors, it will excite the psyche and affect the nervous system.

Psychologists say that red is the color most suitable for decorating a kitchen. This tone perfectly stimulates the digestive system, awakening the appetite.

The color of the material should not only be in harmony with the overall decor of the kitchen, but beautifully complement the window opening with the balcony door. In addition, by choosing curtains of several shades, you can achieve a beautiful and smooth gradient transition. This will have a softening effect on the retina of the eye.

A few mistakes that people often make when choosing the color of the curtain for the balcony door in the kitchen:

All mistakes can be seen in almost every kitchen of modern housewives. Without knowing the basic rules for selecting curtain colors, the kitchen takes on a dull appearance, but a woman spends a lot of time here. An incorrectly chosen product color for a balcony door will contribute to irritation. nervous system and worsening mood.

Designers advise choosing a curtain palette based on the following recommendations:

• Moderation of accents. You should not completely repeat the colors of the fronts of cabinets and other furniture - this will create a piling effect. It is better to pay attention to harmonization with the color of the chandelier, tablecloth or other kitchen textiles.
• Drawings. For example, if the kitchen is made in yellow tones, then there is no need to choose a completely solid yellow fabric. It is better to purchase a light curtain with cheerful or calm yellow patterns.
• A game of contrasts. If the kitchen is made in blue, then it is better to choose a white or sand shade for the curtains. It’s also not worth repeating the palette of kitchen decoration: a contrasting game will look much better.
• Room size. In a small kitchen, it is not recommended to hang dark curtains on the balcony door - this will not contribute to a comfortable stay in the room. Experiments are allowed in large kitchens.
• Interesting combinations. You can always purchase textiles made in several shades. For example, a window block will be covered with a light translucent curtain, and on the door itself there will be a product of a dark shade.

Advice

Using roller blinds: features and types

Selecting curtains for a balcony opening in any room always encounters difficulties: they are associated with the asymmetry of the opening. The window block and door have different heights and width, so there is no point in choosing a common curtain. Roll models come to the rescue - practical products that fit into stylish interior.

Roller blinds More suitable for technical and minimalist design styles. They are not suitable for luxurious bedrooms, kitchens and living rooms made in Baroque, Empire, Rococo, and Classicism styles.

DIY making

If purchasing ready-made product options does not inspire inspiration, but the balcony opening has non-standard sizes- It's time to start sewing. Such a textile product will emphasize the style of the interior and add a little severity.

For work you need to select the following materials:

• a wooden beam 3x4 cm or a metal hollow tube - for securing the canvases;
• a wooden or metal bar for weighting - so that the structure does not dangle at the bottom of the balcony door;
• furniture stapler and staples;
• screwdriver and fasteners - self-tapping screws;
• threads, scissors, other sewing supplies;
• fabric sheet - how to calculate the required size is indicated below.

Instead of wooden beam or tubes for cornices, you can use ready-made cassette system: It is sold in stores or building supply departments.

If the length of the blade is correctly calculated, it will smoothly enter and exit the mechanism. Use the proven formula: determine the width based on adding the width of the opening or glass with an increase in seam allowances of 2-4 cm. To calculate the length of the product, measure the height of the balcony door and add 5-15 cm.

In addition to the listed materials, you will also need ribbons or chains with which the roller blind will operate. Their length is equal to the length of the finished curtain, doubled plus 25 cm in reserve.

As a material, it is better to choose a fabric that transmits light and is not capable of static accumulation.

The work consists of the following stages:

• First, a pattern is made, it is transferred to fabric and cut out. At the next stage, both fabrics are sewn on the wrong side on two sides of the length and on one side of the width. The workpiece is turned right side out and ironed.
• The prepared weighting material is inserted into the part that was not sewn up. After this, the curtain is finally sewn in width. All sewing operations are best performed using a sewing machine.
• The top of the fabric is wrapped around wooden block and secured with a furniture stapler. If you use a metal tube, you can use special hooks instead of staples: they will allow you to quickly remove the curtain for washing.

• Ties or cords are also screwed to the cornice to support the product. It is worth thinking in advance about the place where the cord will be hidden when the window is open.
• The structure is attached to the balcony door frame or to the wall above the door using a screwdriver and screws. Another type of control is made using a cord fixed to the side. Then special rings are sewn onto the canvas where the cord is threaded.
• Making roller blinds for a balcony door will not cause any problems - the process is fast and exciting.

Decorating the hall with curtains

IN standard layouts Apartments, access to the balcony is in most cases located in the living room. The architects decided to make a balcony here because of the large width of the room. Many people complain that it is difficult to arrange a room with such an opening, but the recommendations will help to avoid difficulties.

It is quite difficult to match a balcony door with a window opening, but it is doable. It is enough to wisely choose the color, material and style that will optimally fit into the living room. Before choosing, you should measure all the necessary indicators in advance. Measure the width of the window opening, the height of the balcony door and decide where the curtain will be fixed: on the wall or in the opening itself.

When choosing curtains for a room with a balcony door, pay attention to the following criteria:

• Room illumination. With a glazed balcony, there is no need to additionally protect the living room space from sunlight. In this case, light colors made from loose material will work well. If the balcony is not glazed, there is a risk of cold air letting in, and the windows are too large - choose thick fabric that will not allow prying eyes to pass through.
• Freedom of movement near the window. The balcony is considered a kind of place for storing a large number of items in the owner’s part of the apartment, so access to it should be free. If people constantly go out to smoke on the balcony, and the husband has set up his own workshop there, think in advance about the type of curtain that will not impede movement.

In addition, it is necessary to take into account the shape of the balcony door: if it is a round door, you will have to tinker with the choice. It is appropriate to decorate such openings with a curtain made of light fabric to the floor, and decorate the side space on both sides with additional decorations. Some owners of such original openings leave them without curtains, increasing the permeability of light in the room.

For a small living room, you should not buy curtains in black, brown, marsh and burgundy colors - such a palette will visually make the room even smaller.

Choose curtain colors that will look appropriate and fill the room with warmth:

• olive combined with light beige;
• sand-colored curtains framed with brown stripes along the long sides;
• contrasting option: beige main curtain made of tulle, curtain made of brown thick fabric;
• gray shades combined with universal white;
• light prints on a white background: geometric shapes, simple patterns;
• stylish stripe - better to choose vertical stripes, because horizontal ones will increase the width of the opening;
• a light lilac shade of a curtain made of light fabric in combination with the silver color of the curtains;
• terracotta curtain with a smooth transition to light pink color.

Curtain for the bedroom: design rules

• Add practicality. Curtains in the bedroom play not only a decorative role, but are used from a practical point of view. In order for the fabric not to transmit light, it must be dense and dark. To ensure that the product is not subject to frequent contamination, its material must be universal.
• Quick release. Curtains located on the balcony door in the bedroom come into contact with the inhabitants of the house much more often than other textile items in the house. Make sure that the material is easy to clean and can be quickly removed from the curtain rod for washing.
• Material. The raw materials for making curtains for the balcony door should not be exposed to moisture. The specified place in the apartment is considered vulnerable to the penetration of dampness and air, especially if the balcony is not glazed from the inside.

If the balcony door does not have additional windows, this greatly simplifies the situation. In this case, you can use thread curtain- muslin. It will not help hide the room from sunlight, but it will look great in the bedroom, creating coziness and romance.

To work, you will need fabric - it is advisable to take organza or other loose material. The calculation of the fabric depends on the presence of folds, the length of the product and its width.

Advice

Along the perimeter it is better to add an additional 20 cm on each side.

Classic curtain option

• Fabric hem. From the side parts, the material is folded inward 2 times. First, make a bend of 1 cm, then another 2 cm, attach it to sewing machine. Set the average settings of the device: the stitching should not be large, and do not forget to make bartacks.
• The lower part of the curtain on the door should also be folded. First, make a hem of 3 cm, then another 5 cm. Try to keep the stitching even, because the seam will be visible.
• Ironing. All processed edges are ironed. If the curtain is made of thin materials, be sure to change temperature regime device on delicate. This will help prevent damage to the fabric.
• The upper edge is folded 2 cm and trimmed with braid. Instead, you can use a thick strip of fabric, as well as additional decor. Depending on the method of fastening the curtains, it is necessary to purchase rings, hooks or loops in advance, which are subsequently sewn to the product.
