One of the most common questions homeowners ask when buying curtains is how much curtain fabric is needed per window.
Generally, curtains should be 1.5 to 2.5 times the width of the window to achieve a full and elegant look.
For example:
- Small window → 4 to 6 meters of curtain fabric
- Medium window → 6 to 8 meters
- Large living room window → 8 to 12 meters
Curtain height also matters. In modern interior design, curtains are usually installed from ceiling to floor to create a luxurious appearance.
