Curtain dressing

A curtain arrangement is often the most eye catching aspect of a room. Some windows are beautiful in themselves, and the art in such cases is to ensure that the "dressing" of fabric compliments rather than obscures, the "architectural" framework.

the chief ingredient in any successful window composition is imagination. To some extent, there is a repertoire of basic forms - a vocabulary of design ideas. Often the most successful designs are those where a traditional idea is injected with a touch of originality perhaps in the proportions, or in the detailing, or in the choice of fabric choice.


Keeping this is mind I printed out various photos of curtains to try and formulate the types of segmentations and arts of lace creation as a skill. 

The various sections of net curtains are drawn by different colours which is is named and defined in the descriptions below.
