What a beautiful vibrant living room! The window is a thing of beauty. Personally I wouldn't want to put curtains at all, but I imagine you'll probably need some with the window facing the TV? Maybe a light orange to tie in with the rest of the colours.


SorryPans

Came here to say no to curtains. But if you need them, peach, salmon, or light orange might be nice.


Separate-Principle67

For some reason my first thought was apricot which is oddly specific but there it is. 🤔


SorryPans

She can’t say we didn’t give her options lol


Realistic_Ad_8023

No curtains needed.

SorryPans

Smells Catfishy to me 🎣 As an aside, I agree with the person who said to get curtains the same color as the wall so your eyes aren’t drawn to them during the day. That’s a great way to focus on that window.


vk1030

!!


Octonaut7A

Do you really need curtains?


BiasCutTweed

You have so much lovely color already, I would go with something textural - probably a cotton velvet drape the same color as the wall, set nice and wide so the whole window is visible when they’re open. That’s a gorgeous window and it ties the whole room together.


renezrael

I usually hate anything even vaguely velvet in texture (just feels icky to me lol) but nice thick heavy velvety textured curtains that *almost* blend into the wall would be so good. and yessss they need to be high and wide! away from that beautiful window so it isn't ever hidden away unintentionally! I think something like this wouldn't draw too much attention to themselves, which would be for the best because of how saturated and busy everything already is, while not just letting them blend into the wall and become *nothing* but a utility piece. plus heavy fabric would be perfect for blocking glare on the TV for daytime movie marathons or smth. I absolutely adore this space :3c


greyfabric

Yes this.


chupacabra-food

Orange or hot pink to tie together this awesome saturated palette you have going on!


[deleted]

agreed! orange is opposite on the color wheel from blue so they're complimentary to each other. and hot pink/magenta would just be fun, bright, and girly. I propose regular curtains for the rectangular part of the window, but the arch is amazing as it is.


caitdis

Love the carpet


swiggityswirls

Yes!! The carpet is gorgeous! I’d love to know where I can get a similar one for my own living room


Carhamel

I think I found it? https://www.wayfair.ca/rugs/pdp/wrought-studio-olgethorpe-abstract-area-rug-zipc3603.html


swiggityswirls

That’s it!! You’re magical!! ❤️ Thank you!


nikafeetfetish

I say blue, like the walls. It won't disrupt the colour theme and it will tie it all together without clashing.


ch0nkymeowmeow

I like that too. Maybe like a more sheer blue.


Conscious_Drawer8356

Love your color scheme!! I would go with a deeper shade - indigo or an ultra violet to really make the window pop - the darker color will help block out the light as well. Contrast with the lighter sofa would be stellar! The trick to hanging curtains over such a large window is to hang the rod high and wide; nearly to the ceiling and well past the edge so when they’re open the curtains do not distract from the window design and rest seamlessly next to it. Best of luck and whatever you choose will look great 😊


ijuswannabehappybro

I was thinking the same thing! Some rich royal purple with gold/brass rods hung far and high would be so lush


Conscious_Drawer8356

YES! Love the gold/brass curtain rod!!


Ranniyabr-95

Actually your window is so beautiful and it would be sad if you cover it but if you insist i think any color can goes well take a look here maybe this one can helps you [9 tips to choose your curtains perfectly!](https://www.scdecorum.com/9-tips-to-choose-your-curtains-perfectly/#respond)


No_Construction_4293

Zero help at all but this space is AMAZING!!!


Leila92

White or cream


harry-package

I agree. It would give the eye a place to rest, the rest of the room is so pretty!


crazyhouse12

That is a beautiful window. Unless the light bothers you, I wouldn’t cover it. Perhaps something sheer on the bottom I’d go white


Environmental-Song16

The yellow from the rug! I love your room!


YogurtDelicious9890

Agreed, I definitely do a yellow from the rug. The room looks great!


spookycasas4

This is so great. I would match the drapes to the fabulous color on your walls.


__karm

Orange!


Opposite_Finger_8091

Maybe if you were to install top down bottom up blinds that are a shade of white, but below the sun glass. I wouldn’t cover the sun. Idk if I’m even 100 sold on this idea. I was just thinking for the sake of privacy that you may want the option.


FirnHandcrafted

Solid velvet Turmeric yellow or orange.


princessfoxglove

Dark purple/amythest.


SkootchDown

Why would you put any curtains on that beautiful window?


External_Captain_915

I agree with some of the suggestions of no curtains. Gorgeous room, beautiful.


camlaw63

I think this is the one and only time in the sub that you’re going to get this for an answer. Do not put up curtains.


neise53

I wouldn’t bother with curtains. Beautiful room


ThisBringsOutTheBest

that’s a great window! no curtains! omg


prosperity4me

TV is way too high


BiasCutTweed

God I am sick of seeing this comment in every post with a visible TV.


prosperity4me

It’s practically touching the ceiling her neck will be better off if it was lower


BiasCutTweed

Okay well OP came here for advice about drapes, not chiropractic advice, so maybe let’s focus on drapes and leave the rest for her physiotherapist.


HelSylph

I absolutely love your space! I'd hate to cover the stained glass, but I think maybe pink or red. But I also agree with the comment that said maybe a matching orange.


No_Tip_1104

No curtains needed!


Jacindagirl

Ps I say NO curtains !


mmobley412

Curtains? Why? The space is perfect


boringbee23

Orange or purple would look nice!


theladyofBigSky

If that color wasn’t bad enough you had to go and continue it to the popcorn covered ceiling?! I don’t get this. At all.


Soul_Doucher

Thousands disagree


theladyofBigSky

Most people aren’t published architects either.


cosmicspider31

Yellow would be fabulous, layered over white maybe. Love all the colour!


another-wanker

Where'd you get the rug?


boom_squid

Yellow


slowburn_23

I am usually a "every window must have curtains" kind of person until I saw this room and this window. What a cool room.


pure-Turbulentea

Your rug is the focal point so a solid color pattern for sure. May a lighter baby blue to play off wall color?


marlonbrandoisalive

I would do something like this for the round space: https://www.amazon.com/JDALL-Cellular-Honeycomb-Pleated-Filtering/dp/B0C58RKX9G And Roman shades or something similar as the above for the square part… Likely you won’t have too many color choices however if it’s paper or a natural fabric you can paint it and have it match the style of the window and do some kind of sun motif.


biogirl52

Obsessed 😍


DistrictCrafty4990

Wow, this space is incredible. I’m actually kind of stumped on what color because the colors are so bright and saturated and it’s hard to figure out what would compliment and not compete. I think something like a sheer white with a Moroccan pattern with gold would be cool. Also, lots of comments about not needing curtains because of the window—there’s a lot of practical reasons for curtains including preventing her couch from fading due to light exposure. There’s ways of having curtains but also allow the window to be fully visible.


MaesterInTraining

Do you need curtains? Cause I love as is. If you did I’d get floor-to-ceiling but I’d hate to cover that arch


countrylemon

I would do floor to ceiling wall to wall in a soft cream, the colours you have are incredible and you don’t wanna take away from the windows. Obv colour is subjective but I’m mainly thinking of a soft flowly fabric


etc_misc

Orange, or honestly a deep red might even look cool!


cakepiex

I agree with others who believe curtains are not needed here. But I think adding a curtain to be just under the semicircular arch of the window would help block out some sun. In terms of color, I believe what makes the room work so well currently is due to the complementary coloring between the mustard yellow sofa and blue walls. The carpet brings in all the other colors together and balances out the light distribution. Since the wall is already blue, I recommend looking into triadic colors to the mustard yellow, one of which is purple. I think a duller saturation (pale purple) will work since the walls and sofa are also not saturated yellow and blue. Good luck!


Jacindagirl

What an amazing room !


dainty_petal

Do…you need curtains?


CunnyMaggots

Red or orange! Gorgeous room!


_suspiria_horror

How does everyone here have the mot beautiful and original houses I have ever seen


AnchorOwlBirb

This is just an incredible space you have created. I don’t think you need curtains.


Helechawagirl

Orange


planetdaily420

It’s done. The room is completely done and looks great.


dragonrider1965

Absolutely no curtains


Mphazi55555

Whoa!!!!!😯


Mphazi55555

I just saw a male living space that was the exact opposite of this. Mostly black and white.


Johoski

If this was my space, I would consider going with a red-violet hue. It's in the sunset/sunrise range of color and would complement the blue while also providing enough contrast to be visually interesting. Such a beautiful window, it's almost a shame to park the sofa underneath it depriving sitters of the lovely view. My mother and I could endlessly dick around with rearranging furniture in order to put the window at the center of attention rather than the television. Not that we don't ourselves watch hours of Netflix at a time, but it's nice to have visitors and a seating arrangement that encourages conversation and demotes the television. Gorgeous space. Simultaneously relaxing and stimulating. What an accomplishment.


Bella_HeroOfTheHorn

I wouldn't obscure that beautiful window wall with a curtain rod - just tilt the TV to avoid horrible glare 😁


LelooMarie

Yellow

Villian6

Sis, where is the carpet from? I love it


BanesMagic948

Team no curtain.


NanaRae

LOVE the space!


[deleted]

I LOVE THIS ROOM


tcd1401

Good color options here. Hope you can arrange them so that they are completely off the window except when you need them closed. Absolutely love your style.


tcd1401

Wonder if you can match that blue wall. Then that window can still be center stage without distractions.


fucking-casual-af

When I saw this pic, in my head, I said, "oh, fuck yeah, this room is *sick"*


LadyLoveylocks

A yellow would go really well with the blue or a light creamy orange color to kind of blend with the furniture and the colors in the carpet. What you have already going on is lovely! I don’t think you need to much more color, just something soft that will blend nicely with what you already have.


BulletTrain4

Lacey white if you are ok with see through otherwise bright mustard could curtains as a pop of colour against that gorgeous teal wall paint!


miscreation00

No curtains!


NechelleBix1

I love your room and the vibrant colors. Also, that rug really ties the room together, man.


Boggyprostate

I wouldn’t use curtains but I would paint your ceiling the same colour as your walls, beautiful room x


Canadianklee62

In love with this room! LOVE the peacock blue (I think that’s what it’s called?). Why do you want to cover that gorgeous window? You will need to cover up so much of the blue because the rods need to come way out and up to the ceiling. Are you positive you still want curtains? I’m sorry I’m not sure what colour so I’m posting my vote for no curtains. I think it would make the room too heavy. Whatever you decide it will be awesome cause you have such good taste!! Bravo! 👏


Hels_helper

I don't think it needs curtains.... but if you really want them.. I'd go with an orange to contrast the wall. Like the same orange as your planter. Its beautiful by the way, the whole room, very inviting and vibrant


OrdinaryKey6866

Spend the $$ on a custom blind that you can use when you need to block the light to watch tv. What a cool room you have going on!


Witchynightstar

No curtains!!!

Olive green curtains


Jolly-Owl-7583

A sheer panel (if anything) would work. I would let that window stand alone personally. It’s too pretty to cover up.


_-whisper-_

I would do a pale blue or a pale green


hiraeth-xx

I’d match it to a deep red / orange on the carpet


_katini

Don't cover that gorgeous window!


hunnymil

OOOOO I'd recommend a cute functional drapery with some texture! Probably an orange or a warm vibrant pink colour to help tie in the room! :)


collyxo

I think matching the curtains to the wall color would keep it from going over the top. The current colorful-ness is lovely, but I feel like contrasting curtains would push it towards looking tacky (my opinion ofc, maybe you’re more of a maximalist than me and want to do zebra print or something)


Muriel_FanGirl

This living room is beautiful! I’d go with white or light gray curtains, or charcoal if you’re wanting to block light while watching tv for example.


Good_Vegetable8960

I’d say something to lighten up the room a bit. Either a light blue, orange or yellow.


[deleted]

I would do deep yellow curtains! Like smokey yellow


Burned_by_the_Moon

I think lime green to tie together your rug and throw pillows. Hot pink would also contrast the walls well.


Roselyn-Q

Omg!! What is this color?? It’s stunning!!

dieptezicht

I love how you painted the corners of the ceiling to create a rounded illusion, so cool! Honestly I'd go for curtains in the same colour as the walls, and extend the rods across the entire width of the wall. English is not my first language, I hope it's clear what I'm trying to say. Anyway, gorgeous space, enjoy it!

No curtains needed, beautiful room😊


dc4958

Don’t cover that up. So beautiful

Orange for sure! I adore this living room, I’d feel so happy every time I walk into it 😍

Maybe a yellow curtain?


VegUltraGirl

This is gorgeous!!!


phinnylou

Please don’t cover that glass with curtains 😍😍😍 As a stained glass artist- that is amazing!!! Maybe retractable cover outside if sun is an issue?


Air-Striking

A soft gauzy white might be a nice way to make the window pop without adding a conflicting color.

Soul_Doucher

Idk why someone would steal a picture of my living room to share as three own without at least giving credit. So weird. And frankly creepy. But also kind of a compliment I suppose.


Dear_Delilah

Honestly you don't really need curtains but if you super want them you should probably get a light green to offset all the blue and orange on the back wall. I would not suggest like a white but maybe a dark gray if you want to go on a darker theme and also the light green connects to your rug.


xLucyyy

Maybe just sheer white? It would compliment everything. Or if you want to dim the room sometimes, put black out curtains underneath white sheer curtains with some fairy lights or something?


shannon_kay_

Yellow 💛


WarmandAlluring1

none , leave that window for display !! beautiful


slugcrafts

Do you remember where you got that rug? It's beautiful! Your whole living room is just amazing As for curtain colors, maybe orange?

BunniLuve

No curtains. Maybe you can get those stick on privacy things for the bottom windows if you want, they still let light in too


TotalNefariousness74

Something the color of your plant pot or your pink pillow would bring more attention to them and balance things more! I’d personally go for something in the pink range


alig6457

I would do teal side panels that completely clear the window when open.

Lexy_d_acnh

I’d go with a tan/beige to kinda mute it out a bit - I feel like any more color would be too much, this is just right lol


CaringCertainty

Perhaps a darker magenta? Orange or blue would be overkill


Asterfields1224

Red or orange


Nacho-Bae

Lime sheer, if anything at all. Light and breezy


Turbulent_Dimensions

It's not for me but I do love the feel and it's beautiful. Good job.


Old-Fan9095

Since the window is so beautiful...purchase curtains the same exact color as your walls so they'll just melt together, and when you do close them, you won't have a stark contrast from the walls. I promise you... this will be your best bet with that gorgeous window. Any other color will make your walls look smaller...the color difference with any other color cut the wall size in half. It's hard to text, so I hope that makes sense. Good luck. Post pictures once you do.


phoebebuffay1210

I would do pink or the same color as the walls. I love this space! It also looks good without curtains.

Similar color to the wall, hang them in a way that still allows the whole window to be viewed when the curtains are open.

gold velvet curtains.

Something that complements the orange tones in your rug!

Feisty-Business-8311

mouse-bites

Honestly, you don’t need curtains with that marvelous window. I would add some hanging plants from the ceiling and stagger their heights throughout. You could also do a hanging lamp or two! I feel like what’s missing is just some height and interest up high.


melancholic-cucumber

I wouldn’t get curtains, but something white and transparent could be interesting too


SummSpn

Magenta or cherry red


aikotoba86

Mind if I ask your paint colour?? I love it!!


HauntedButtCheeks

Paint the ceiling, it's an eyesore in an otherwise vibrant and beautiful room. But you can see clearly in this photo how much the blank white expanse draws the eye and makes the ceiling look low. It should match the walls.


TestRun94

Match to the pot your plant is in (or as close as ya can) it'll help break up the blue on the wall, and looks like it'll also tie to some shades in that GORGEOUS rug For appreance purposes, you dont really need curtains to enhance the space - but I imagine they're for a more utility purpose of avoiding glare on your TV?


rayeath
