Curtains can transform a room—but only if you get them right. Many Dubai homeowners make simple mistakes that ruin both the look and function of their space.
Let’s look at 7 common curtain mistakes you should avoid:
- Hanging too low – Always mount your rod close to the ceiling to make your room look taller.
- Wrong length – Curtains should touch the floor. Short curtains make your windows look incomplete.
- Not layering – Skipping sheer + blackout combos limits light control in Dubai’s harsh sun.
- Ignoring window direction – East-facing rooms need blackout. North-facing might work with sheer only.
- Choosing synthetic-only fabrics – Avoid 100% polyester in hot rooms. Use breathable blends.
- Wrong color tone – Match your curtain color with wall tones. Don’t clash bold with bold.
- No thermal lining – Without lining, even thick curtains may let in heat.
With proper planning and the right supplier, you can avoid these and turn any room into a balanced, beautiful space.
