If the room is large, you can decorate the windows with good curtains of various variations from classic, French curtains to Japanese panels.

If it is necessary to distinguish between the area where food is prepared and the area for recreation, in apartments with a combined kitchen and living room, it is necessary to emphasize the difference between these two rooms with the help of textiles on the windows. To do this, on the windows in the living room you can place rich curtains with lambrequins, frills, and in the kitchen area to place simple curtains with a simple design.
