Our Natural and Sustainable Curtains

Curtains should be chosen based on the room's overall aesthetic, the amount of light you want to let in, and the level of thermal insulation needed.

-Eyelet curtains: Easy to hang and take down, they offer a modern, minimalist look. Plus, their lining can block out light.

-Tassel curtains: They add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your decor.

-Tie-back curtains: Perfect for a relaxed, bohemian vibe. They add a warm, inviting feel to any room.

- Blackout curtains: They block out sunlight and are perfect for bedrooms, especially children's rooms.

-Thermal curtains: Insulate your home from the cold and heat, while creating a cozy atmosphere.

- Sheer curtains: Let natural light in and filter UV rays while creating a modern, minimalist look;

The choice of curtain fabric depends on several factors, including the desired aesthetic, the desired functionality, and the room's location.

To minimize your environmental impact, it is best to choose natural materials.

-Organic cotton curtains: Durable and easy to care for, this natural, breathable fiber promotes air circulation, helping to create a pleasantly airy atmosphere in the room.

-Linen curtains, made from a natural fabric with a slightly crinkled look, help create a warm atmosphere in a room. Washed linen gives your windows a natural, elegant crinkled look, just like the ALYA linen curtain.

-Silk curtains: an elegant and sophisticated fabric to dress up your windows in our curtain collection.

-Polyester curtains: Polyester is a synthetic material; it is best to choose natural fabrics.

-Velvet curtains: A velvet curtain can add a touch of luxury and comfort to a room. 

Adjust the fabric according to seasonal needs

Choose lightweight fabrics like linen or cotton for summer, and opt for heavier materials like velvet or wool, which are perfect for keeping out the cold in winter.

-Light and privacy: Curtains allow you to filter sunlight and create a darker, more private environment. They also shield you from prying eyes and provide a sense of security.

-Thermal insulation: In the winter, curtains help keep heat inside your home by blocking drafts and insulating windows with a thermal lining. In the summer, they can help keep your home cool by reducing the amount of heat coming in from the sun.

-Improved acoustics: Curtains can absorb sound and reduce reverberation in a room, creating a quieter and more relaxing environment. 

-Decor and Style: Curtains are an important element in enhancing interior design. They can add a touch of color, texture, and style to your room. They come in a wide variety of colors, patterns, and fabrics to suit every taste and decor style, adding a touch of sophistication to every room.

-Other benefits: Curtains can protect your furniture and floors from the sun's harmful UV rays. They can also help reduce dust and allergens in your home. In addition, curtains can be used to divide spaces within a room or to create a cozy, comfortable corner

You're sure to find the right curtains for your home—whether they're solid-colored or patterned—with a wide selection of colors to choose from that will suit any room. 

-Neutral colors such as beige, terracotta, and sage green are popular. Natural, soothing tones are sought after to create a cozy and relaxing atmosphere in the space using solid-color curtains. The ALYA line of linen curtains, made from natural materials, is available in several shades (ecru, natural, rust, slate, ivory...).

In a small room, light-colored curtains can create a sense of space, while dark curtains can add privacy to a larger room. You can also coordinate your curtains with decorative pillows to create a harmonious color scheme.

-White curtains are versatile and suit any room, allowing you to make the most of the light. They bring brightness and elegance, while blending easily with other colors.

There are several curtain rod systems available that allow you to hang your curtains in different ways depending on the look you want. 

-Round curtain rod: The most common and versatile type.

Available in wood, metal, plastic, and wrought iron. Various diameters and styles.

-Flat curtain rod: Offers a more modern and minimalist look.

Because of their flat profile, these rods may be particularly well-suited for tight spaces where a thicker rod might seem bulky.

-Curtain rod: A discreet and flexible system. Perfect for large windows and picture windows. Mounts on the wall or ceiling.

-Extendable curtain rod: A practical solution for windows of varying widths. Mounts to the wall.

-Drill-free curtain rod: Attaches to the wall without drilling holes. Perfect for renters or fragile walls.

-Glazing rail: Attaches directly to the window sash. Ideal for small windows and French doors.

-Curtains are generally preferred in situations that require darkness and privacy; they are made from thick, opaque fabrics such as velvet, cotton, or wool, which effectively block out outside light. They are therefore ideal for bedrooms, home theaters, or any other room where darkness is desired, thanks to blackout curtains.

-Sheer curtains are made from lightweight, translucent fabrics (linen, cotton, silk), allowing natural light to enter the room while creating a visual barrier that preserves privacy.

-Curtains and sheers can be used together to create an elegant and functional layered look. Blackout curtains can be paired with sheers to filter light and maintain privacy while still letting in natural light.

To choose the right size for your curtains, you should first measure the width and height of your window. Then, add 10 to 15 cm to each side for the width and 20 to 30 cm for the height.

For a generous size, multiply the width of your window by 1.5 to 2.

For a clean, straight drape: the distance between the bottom of the curtain rod and the floor, leaving 1 to 2 cm of space.

For a sharp drape: add 5 to 10 cm to the distance mentioned above.

The desired effect:

-Pronounced gathered effect: Choose curtains that are twice as wide as your curtain rod.

-Slightly gathered look: Choose a curtain width that is 1.5 times the width of your curtain rod.

Adjustable curtains can be tailored to fit any size. Choose the LENO washed linen curtain, which is adjustable thanks to its clip rings and features a black hem.
