Welcome to a world where windows aren’t just openings; they’re canvases waiting for the touch of elegance. In this blog post, we unravel the art of window styling using RM COCO fabrics. Whether you’re framing a city skyline or a cozy garden view, let’s dive into the magic of drapery, sheers, and shades.

1. Drapery Drama

The Right Fabric Choice Drapery isn’t just about blocking light; it’s about creating drama. RM COCO’s lush velvets cascade like liquid poetry, adding opulence to any room. For a more relaxed vibe, opt for linen drapes—they sway gently with the breeze. Remember, fabric weight matters: heavy drapes exude grandeur, while lightweight ones lend an airy feel.

Length and Puddling
Long drapes elongate windows and ceilings. Let them puddle gracefully on the floor for a romantic touch. Alternatively, go for a tailored look—just grazing the floor. Experiment with different lengths to find your window’s sweet spot.

Hardware Matters
Choose curtain rods and finials that complement your decor. Sleek metals for modern spaces, ornate designs for traditional rooms. Don’t forget tiebacks—they’re like jewelry for your drapes.

2. Sheer Beauty

The Whisper of Sheers
Sheer fabrics are the soft breaths between solid statements. RM COCO’s sheer voiles and organza's filter sunlight, creating a dreamy ambiance. Layer them under heavier drapes for privacy without sacrificing luminosity. Sheers also soften views, turning harsh daylight into a gentle glow.

Texture and Transparency
Explore sheer textures: crinkled voiles, delicate embroideries, or subtle patterns. Sheers aren’t just white; they come in soft pastels, earthy tones, and even metallic finishes. Choose transparency levels based on your room’s purpose—more transparency for living areas, less for bedrooms.

3. Shades of Chic

Roman Shades
RM COCO’s Roman shades are sleek and functional. They stack neatly when raised, revealing the outside world. Opt for bold prints or textured solids. Customize them to fit your window perfectly.

Roller Shades
Minimalists adore roller shades. They disappear into sleek cassettes when not in use. RM COCO offers blackout options for bedrooms and light-filtering shades for living spaces. Don’t forget to choose a stylish pull chain or motorized control.

4. Layering Magic

The Art of Layered Windows
Why settle for one treatment when you can have layers? Start with sheers, add drapes, and top it off with valances or cornices. Layering creates depth, texture, and visual interest. Mix patterns fearlessly—stripes with florals, solids with geometrics.

Seasonal Switch-Ups
Change your window attire with the seasons. Light linens for summer, rich velvets for winter. RM COCO’s versatile fabrics make this transition seamless.

Embellishments
Tassels, trims, and tiebacks—these details elevate your window game. RM COCO’s accessories add flair without overwhelming. A tassel tieback can turn a simple drape into a statement piece.

Professional Installation
Invest in professional installation. Properly hung drapes and shades transform a room. The right height, fullness, and symmetry matter.

Remember, windows are storytellers. They frame your world, revealing glimpses of your life. With RM COCO fabrics, your window magic becomes a symphony of style and substance.
