What is DK curtain?
During the 70s in Iran, houses generally had a simple and traditional style and there was no news of modern luxuries. It was not with all kinds of arrangement and decorations; Among those who didn't prioritize the layout of the house, there were people who implemented a different style in their home due to their specific thinking and attitude as well as their modern lifestyle, and the feeling that the furniture gave them was important to them. Depending on their financial ability and social level, they used brand names for furniture, beds, curtains and kitchen utensils. The curtains that the modern houses of the 70s had were mainly shutter type curtains such as Lordrape and nature themed curtains and sometimes colorful curtains. Even today, this type of variety exists, and it has even multiplied, which you can learn about its types by referring to the curtain section of the Memarland website. It is impossible to mention the name of Lordrape's curtain and not mention the modern type of this curtain; A curtain whose ancestor somehow goes back to Lordape and was designed in the same style and had a strange charm for me when I got to know it for the first time. I hope it is the same for you. The name of Lordrape's child that has reached an attractive development is (DK curtain), which is usually known by other names such as (vertline, vertical, vertical zebra or vertical curtains).
Structure
The method of making Vertline curtains is that they first cut 40 cm wide blades and when they are put together with special stitches to get a semi-cylindrical shape.
Characteristics
The first thing that can be mentioned as an advantage is the separation of each piece from the curtain slats. dk curtain slats are so that you can walk through them and space. The separate property of the dk curtain allows us to have the most control over the light entering inside and also protecting the privacy of our home. This is achieved by rotating the slats at different angles, for example, if we set the angle to 90 degrees, we will have the maximum amount of light entering inside, and if we want nothing to block the light entering inside, we can use chains to close the curtain. which are installed for this purpose, let's completely move aside and receive direct sunlight in the house. Now, if we set an angle close to 45 degrees on the slats, the amount of light we will receive inside the house will be softer and softer than the 90 degree state of the slats. In addition, you can give any angle to the curtain according to your needs and have the best possible situation for yourself at home. Usually, we apply the curtain at an angle of 90 degrees during the day, especially in the middle of summer afternoons, and at an angle of 45 degrees at night to get the best performance from our curtain.
Vertical grave
The second characteristic that can be mentioned for the dk curtain is its high similarity to the zebra curtain; In this way, the mechanism of working and using both of these curtains is almost the same, and the only difference is that they are vertical and horizontal. These characteristics have caused this curtain to be called vertical zebra.
Colorability
The third feature that we want to address is the color acceptability of this curtain. Due to its separate slats, DK has the ability to be adjusted with any decoration and with any taste. For example, you can choose a desired color palette and move downwards from the sides of the curtain to the inside while its color decreases, or choose a color for the curtain that matches the decor and color of the furniture, carpet, closet, and kitchen cabinet, and even To create an acceptable contrast in the home, he used its complementary colors. This type of coloring can be achieved by combining a neutral color with a desired color in the home. Before we forget, we will also explain the spectral mode; This mode is a bit similar to the first one. We can use different shades of the same color in the curtain, so that we choose blue color and go from light to dark, that is, each slat of the curtain has a different color from the other slat and the color combination create uniqueness; This feature also allows us to use two colors together. All this is due to the high adaptability of the dk screen, and your hand is completely open in design and coloring as a user.
The lighter
Usually, they install a lining under some curtains to block the light and prevent the main curtain from being destroyed by the sun, and to prevent the inside of the house from being seen at night. Another feature that should be mentioned for the DK curtain is that it does not need a lining fabric. This curtain prevents the passage of light and prevents the inside of the house from being seen, because it comes in layers at zero degrees.
Bright shade
When you hold the angle adjustment cord and rotate the slats, an artistic person's mind will liken this change in ambient color to a light shade. When a pen is drawn on the canvas and a light color is combined with a dark one, it creates protrusions, and even shading in make-up and makeup can be related to this light shade, saying that the change of light in the environment and the impact of its auras on the objects inside the house. In a way, it creates an artistic work, and by creating diversity, it makes the atmosphere of the house more pleasant.
Washing
The ability that is considered as the relative superiority of the DK curtain is its ease of washing, so that each slat can be easily separated from its rod and washed.
DK curtain opening and closing mechanisms
This curtain can be opened and closed in three ways; The first case, which is also the simplest, is the manual mode, where we move the curtain in general with a pulley, lever or rope and change the angle of its slats. These two actions can be performed in another mode of mechanisms, and that is the electric type. In this case, you can set settings on the curtain according to your needs and place your curtain in different states. There is another mode called chain, which is similar to the manual mode, and the necessary settings can be made with the help of levers.
All kinds of fabrics used
It is the first type of polyester fabric, which is very popular among the audience due to its special material, and it is also durable and washable and has a reasonable price.
The second type of fabric is nylon. You may be surprised, but this type of fabric is considered for its durability and waterproofness.
The third type of fabric that can be used in dk curtains is velvet, which can be used in any home due to its extremely soft and delicate material.
The last type of fabric used in making this curtain is satin. Its stylishness and softness have given it a special place among consumers.
