My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

are any curtain colors outdated?

16 years ago

I need to pick new curtains for my smallish living room.

I want the thermal ones to keep the draft out.

Here is a link to the curtains I want. I have light beige walls and a beige couch. I was thinking of going with the natural color but the 3 different shades of beige might clash. I was also considering the red or the brown.

Are there any colors that just date a room? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
