Curtain colour against dark blue walls?
Trying to decide on best colour of fabric for a small but cosy reading room. There are 2 windows, the walls are painted very dark blue. Thanks!

Comments (3)I have a color like this on the walls of my game room, with espresso colored leather sofa and chair, and blue/teal/lime accents. I used sheers the same color as the background color on your sofa, and the room looks great. However, you could go with black, too, depending on the carpet or flooring....See MoreWhat colour furniture will go best with black curtains?
Comments (2)A combination of Offwhite, Beige Upholstery and dark shades of wood would look good. Provided you keep the wood minimal . The floor can also be a similar shade of wood . Remember whatever you do, make it look rich and elegant, only then will you be able to pull this look off. I am assuming the your ceiling is considerably high as well.

Comments (6)Hello Aishwarya, The curtains need not match your sofa fabric. It will be an overkill. Please go with light colored curtains with hints/patterns of blue. Instead of two transparent curtains have two layered curtains the inner one (sheer) allows day light inside and the second layer cuts down all the light. You may go with full height curtains rather than window height ones. Thanks, Amit Cornerstone Designs Bangalore...See More

Something like the Berber Oatmeal from curtains to go might work, get swatches always, and go for thick linings with at least double width as a minimum

6 years agoHi, I love the colour on the walls!
If you want to keep it cosy you could go for a plain dark colour in say silk or linen or wool to add interest.
You can always add flowers or pattern to cushions then if you get fed up with the pattern (which I do quite quickly)
Navy 100% Silk
you can easily change the cushions at minimum expense.
If you want to go lighter go for a colour similar to your sofa, again something plain but with texture
