It's important to keep your existing window treatments in mind as well as the aesthetics of the room you are adding to. The best way to start is by selecting your window shade color and pattern, taking into account the design elements of the surrounding space. Then consider how to complement your shade arrangement with drapes and side panels. Some ideas from design experts include:
Functionality and appearance are the biggest factors when it comes to choosing the length you want your drapes or curtains to fall to. Going for a clean, elegant look? Floor-length drapes will do the trick, just make sure to leave at least a half an inch between the drapes and the floor for greater functionality when you open and close them.
Want a more dramatic look? Let your drapes brush the floor. Keep in mind this might not be practical for every room such as the kitchen or bathrooms as they may get in the way, so hang them just below the window sill for optimum functionality.
