What curtain colour should I choose?
Pick your wall colour, your style and what you want the curtains to do — get a palette of three curtain colours shown as real swatches, with the reasoning a designer would give you.
Your room
Curtain palette · Modern / contemporary · soft contrast
Three colours for your beige / cream walls
Earthy olive is the natural partner to cream — warm contrast.
A richer brown-gold that adds depth without clashing.
Cools the palette just enough for a balanced, liveable contrast.
Styling tip
Modern rooms like clean lines — hang these floor-length on a slim track at 2× fullness, and keep the fabric matte or lightly textured.
