With 5 senses, our brain receives many more impulses than we consciously note. And we are still influenced by those signals that we are not aware of. A curtain, as a surface that covers a large part of the room, is one of the sources of information. As long as it serves a functional purpose, it can be made of any material. A material associated with one purpose and used in a different one gives a new signal to the brain. I find it interesting to use unconventional materials and bring a new experience to our daily life with a simple gesture.
