Well, if you are looking for a modern style of curtains, you can go for pencil pleat lined curtains. They enhance the aesthetic appeal of your windows but also render an exquisite and welcoming touch when employed in a modern fashion. Anyway, the choice of curtains depend on their need, lifestyle, trends and the personality of the room.

Stripes are always the safer choice when it comes to interiors,they give a distinctive insight of modern style decor and timeless attraction. You can get some ready made striped curtains,cushions,duvet covers imprinted with stripes to complement well to your stylish home.

My missus is always telling me that planning and a theme are key. She matches the curtain and sofa colours to contrast with the best pillows she can find. This gives each room a theme. So Im told ...

Hi, I agree, the stripes will work perfectly in modern interior, go for bold sripes with very delicate pattern, eg. cream & gold, or if you need more contrast, go for cream & bottle green.
But the key is in the detail, the curve of the curtain pole ends, brackets, tiebacks if you prefer etc.

Have Matchstick Blinds in your rooms. Opt for slim blinds that'll still let natural light in. These organic and woven blinds can keep a space feeling light and airy. Don’t forget to decorate your interior with matching handmade rugs.

I like to add some bright colors to my grey and black furnishing. Pillows and curtains are a great idea to add some stylish accents.

When it comes to me I prefer a very simple style so plain curtains are the best for me. To keep it modern you can also choose curtains with low-key pattern. That is what I would do. Additionally, in modern spaces I love plants. They look incredible so don't forget about them!

I like rooms where one of the walls is a 3D panels, the room looks more textured and individual. It is also cool when there are plants in the room, the view is very refreshing.

I like to keep things simple as you will need to match the curtains with your sofa so your will get a theme which you can also replicate in other rooms.
