Many private apartments these days come furnished with day curtains. Day curtains play an important part in interior furnishings due to the wide variety of designs available. As day curtain materials tend to be see-through and light-weight, these help to create a soft, graceful feel for the interior when the breeze comes by. Day curtains are ideal for public areas, such as the living hall, dining room and the study, to reduce glare from the sun or direct contact with outside. For use in bedrooms, day curtains are suitable if a lot of natural light is desired; otherwise, it should be applied with thermal blackout to provide for privacy.
Most day curtains are easy to maintain, machine-washable, and for some, steam cleaning is possible.
