Windows Curtains Design Ideas 2011 Photo Gallery

The curtains or blinds of a window can make or break the interior design of any site, whether home, office or even a restaurant. Curtains and blinds can make homes look sophisticated and comfortable feel. It is thus important that people have an understanding of the importance of choosing the right curtains or blinds for your windows.<br /><br />To get the perfect curtain, you need to take hold of the fundamentals of bay windows. First things first, how did exactly the windows get its curve? A bay window is basically a set of three windows that had been joined together to form one big view.<br /><br />The windows are set in an angle to form a concave, or a shallow opening space. When you have intended to initially include a window in the original plan of the house, architects usually place the angle at thirty to forty degrees, which could trick the eye to make the room look spacious and bigger.<br /><br />The opening that the bay window creates allows more fresh air and light to come into the house. If you prefer to utilize the rest of the lot area for gardening, a bay window could be the perfect spot where you could relax your mind, drink coffee, read a book, or just to take a good look at your greens .<br /><br /><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627220912558074434" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuW_N6Ra9Il_UgIXvRKfjP9Nya0ZhTSIOXDT1TVvYAOa1mtDjRqWHqgFR_hJPdIQvyxqhJYfo5ZhzGqK3BjzY-C3l1juLVyqhN_KXeCjO31AUXVbm2yPdRdn2NeQQQCifH30elDNA3pT0/s400/window-curtains-ideas-2011-14.jpg" style="cursor: pointer;

White shaker-style cabinets and sleek quartz countertops are combined with stainless steel appliances and fixtures, while green glass tiles are used for the backsplash and to add a bit of color above the cabinets. </div><div style="display: block;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw1WO8smopRiN3yN4XSFwVktTuVuFeEH4cHzK-zZjPbhc-wHi4r5HagMzIZfrVVCKvZ3rxGrGRRq4wyIQ1hu-lVs_lP3sKdpJ_ymlSpUjmlK9FcONK-yiHfTOOoxtpLAoKYxJQ5WIi/s640/Inviting-Kitchen-Designs-Candice-Olson-2011-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><h2 style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Mid-Century Charm</span></h2><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">To pay homage to the home's mid-century modern design, the kitchen layout maximizes the outdoor view and features streamlined zebra-wood cabinetry with white quartz countertops.

Espresso cabinets and white quartz countertops contrast well with the stainless steel appliances and hardware. A 14-foot-long kitchen island serves two functions, a lower section features a built-in sink and storage for a bar area and the higher section functions as the dining area.</div><div style="display: block;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_0fiEfL9tzjLNEsi6LBzqLqAVCjG1cFDcynq-3AaFmuaClUlXN9NRgVGApZjV4G5l5_oWcZND0Hw4s-mm3sf20Nlt411q9WTiv3BQHnU889qjQk5t-RYZHVvJvWq-1bOTpLjm4mg9/s640/Inviting-Kitchen-Designs-Candice-Olson-2011-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><h2 style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Practical Style</span></h2><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">Rich cabinetry, state-of-the art appliances and a host of contemporary fixtures and finishes create a kitchen that's a mix of style and function. A large, square island is the focal point of the kitchen and can be used for preparation and eating.</div><div style="display: block;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGsFHjJFwIYwjqWzYGhjoGPZzOliiSuWEdA_jvUrUKKH7FQHZ6yRk0hFAITd6t1rVywnnTGRIqIF_1hr_quXAD-fFeca_XXIjrvgtyiZl9wmtV87Y51RqGCvCIZnrB5QAAQz7fFyhE/s640/Inviting-Kitchen-Designs-Candice-Olson-2011-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><h2 style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Industrial Chic</span></h2><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">Candice creates a large open-concept kitchen with a system of wooden posts and beams with steel joinery, which are not only crucial for support, but also give the room an open, loft-like feeling. Shaker-style cabinets, a grey-green glass tiled backsplash and polished quartz countertops that has the appearance of concrete keep with the industrial look.</div><div style="display: block;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfzwDPC1k6c1Nl06O71SSuy6AkcqoTuzmsUkT5HmIXSHlnYjXYoIxGbY8a97AYaUlc91T7Gd83kFepjGYTlLqLmQ4uBsVNX2qPfLkco6YQo8DqHHjBxKdiThgC_e4jfe1bxVIbO_lH/s640/Inviting-Kitchen-Designs--Candice-Olson-2011.jpg" width="480" /></div><h2 style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Open Yet Divided</span></h2><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">To create visual separation between the kitchen and family room, Candice designs a light and airy look for the kitchen. The main cabinets are painted cream with a strie finish and topped with cream quartz countertops. A backsplash in handcrafted, multicolored glass tile is the perfect complement and adds a bit of excitement to the space.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgs_EbqnhX4sI015WV88wGk4QKpKIUwfDyfdb_DtswGRRv40UTcLdHJSYKVN0Jk6eZ2UopMhQk9IaqKf7XeSLKzuW81uHkOw3-6PpIK6mYXUeaqcP9HN1ZBT1pHocicOm6L1fGeVJ7W/s640/Inviting-Kitchen-Designs-Candice-Olson-2011-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><h2 style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Blend of Function and Fashion</span></h2><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">Cream cabinetry with mushroom countertops is combined with travertine floor tiles for a functional yet stylish kitchen, and bold wallpaper is a stunning focal point behind the workstation. Lit by two crystal chandeliers, a dark wood island with creamy quartz countertop houses a recycling center, a dishwasher and sink, as well as doubles as an eating space.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyR97D2fQ8bJrAnsCKnjqM8p0S0rrZ3AjhLL9Uxax2hjeae3b9DVRqA8xO32cvsDLskfyiCO_d48T5Rb0X6LgAuHKV3Rp8Vokj7V22-jZwXMkuruLP8vvE8mgEPtl8vHQOvENYRG1d/s640/Inviting-Kitchen-Designs-Candice-Olson-2011-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><h2 style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Serenely Blue</span></h2><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">The backsplash is the perfect area to inject personality into your kitchen. Glass tiles that complement the grey-blue walls create a clean, contemporary backdrop between the contrasting black and white cabinets.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEa7BJF44oBa654D7rPLSBw-uCFc4g9LeBySaAor5SODloh-5DhYnfK7yxBfHVh4icLk3JaufemWBp6ekzZLHJ-u8w3k0MXJIp2WotR3DVfQjNeNUqNUVAFYEXQqwG7WfuA8AVwBpo/s640/Inviting-Kitchen-Designs-Candice-Olson-2011-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><h2 style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Warm and Welcoming</span></h2><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">Custom cabinetry in a creamy shade and mushroom-colored quartz countertop set the tone for this functional kitchen, while the island takes center stage with espresso cabinetry and cream countertops. Eco-friendly cork flooring grounds the space and is perfect for a space where you're standing all the time. Brushed bronze finishes add a traditional touch to the kitchen.</div></div></div></div>
