COURTESY TO SHIELD THE SUN ON A HOT SUMMER DAY

Like many other interior design elements, selecting lovely, appropriate drapes will greatly enhance the opulence and civility of your living area. However, because of the severe weather in Vietnam, selecting curtains can be a little trickier. Vietnam has a tropical monsoon climate with distinct seasonal variations in temperature and precipitation. These particular weather conditions make curtains even more essential for providing comfort to people. The secret to weather-tuning your living environment and adding maximum comfort and flawless aesthetic attractiveness is your deft choice of lovely, appropriate drapes.

1. The rationale behind using curtains to shield yourself from the sun's heat

Vietnam is about to see its hottest, muggiest summer yet. On certain days, the temperature outside can rise above forty degrees. To reduce the sensation of heat, every effort is made to minimize exposure to sunshine and heat. This also applies to summertime curtain selection for your room. To chill the space and cut down on heat, we ought to use curtains that block out the sun. One of the best options for the hot season is curtains with good light- and sun-blocking properties or other textiles that block light and infrared radiation.

In actuality, modern home design frequently incorporates glass panels around windows and doors to increase the room's brightness and airiness. Glass doors are becoming more common in large offices and buildings because of how well they may aid with concentration and stress relief. The "side effect" of having windows and glass doors is that they absorb more heat and are less heat-resistant. As a result, the frequent afternoon sunshine will raise the temperature inside during the summer when it rises. The area will feel more confined if every door is shut and every window is obscured. As a result, employing sun protection curtains is becoming a more practical choice. You can open and close it as you like, and you can hide the sun as needed. It can also add a touch of sophistication and luxury to the area.

2. Choose curtain material to protect against hot sun

The primary element influencing how well-looking curtains block the sun and withstand heat is their material. Typically, we have blinds made of fabric, synthetic plastic, bamboo, and wood. High-quality curtain materials have been studied and shown to be quite effective at blocking the sun's heat in Vietnam's environment. Depending on the needs and goals of the family, clients can also select heat-resistant roller blinds, aluminum blinds with a heat-blocking capacity of over 70%, hardwood blinds, and Roman blinds with an ability to block heat of over 80%.

You can select from a variety of exquisite fabric curtain types made from natural materials and hand-woven processes, like silk chiffon, tulle, satin silk, habotai, or 100% cotton textiles. It not only improves the atmosphere but also gives the space a calm, cozy vibe. You can choose fabric with a little rough surface, like burlap, canvas, tweed, or brocade, if you prefer a more straightforward, rustic look.

Natural materials with excellent sun protection and heat-blocking properties include silk, cotton, linen, brocade, etc.

It is also necessary to take the fabric's thickness into account. Privacy is necessary for family activities; thus, insulating fabric curtains need to be both decorative and protective. You may think of 2-layer curtains, where the inside layer is made of thin chiffon to provide a soft, soothing feeling and allow you to see the outside space in the afternoon, and the outer layer is decorative and blocks the sun's rays.

Customers should select drapes with soft, neutral hues like cream, pastel, or blue to create a cozy atmosphere while still getting decent heat and sun protection. pure white, light gray, light...
