A softer approach to layering
A practical guide to balancing daylight, privacy, and the changing needs of a room.
Curtain notes · 01
A room rarely needs the same light all day. A sheer layer can soften the feeling of a bright window, while a heavier outer curtain gives you another way to shape the room in the evening.
Start with how you use the space. Do you want a bright living area, a more restful bedroom, or a flexible room that changes throughout the day? The answer helps guide your fabric and lining choices.
Privacy also changes with the light. Check the view from outside after dark rather than relying on how a sheer looks during the day. Discuss your priorities before choosing the final layers.
