Selection and Matching Considerations
Consistent Style: Curtain lights should match the overall decor style of the room. For example, a modern minimalist style can choose LED light strips with clean lines, while European or classical styles are more suitable for decorative lights with elegant shapes and soft lighting.

Function First: Choose according to the function of the space. Bedrooms should use dimmable, warm-toned curtain lights to create a cozy and relaxing atmosphere; living rooms or studies may consider brighter and more focused lighting to meet reading or social needs.

Material and Light Coordination: The curtain material affects the lighting effect. Light, sheer curtains are suitable for well-transmitting light strips, creating a dreamy aesthetic; heavy blackout curtains need higher brightness light sources to prevent the light from being completely blocked.

Installation and Safety Considerations
Position and Distance: For embedded curtain box lighting, reserve enough width (10-15cm for single-track boxes, 20-25cm for double-track), and ensure the light strip is at least 10cm away from the curtain fabric to prevent overheating or obstruction.

Electrical Safety: Curtain lights are mostly low-voltage LED strips and should be equipped with certified transformers and outlets. Installation should be done by professionals to avoid exposed, tangled wires or wires being caught in the curtain track, which may cause short circuits or fire risks.

Avoid Direct Eye Exposure: Lighting design should avoid direct exposure to the eyes, especially for curtain lights near the bed or sofa. Indirect lighting (e.g., diffused upward or downward) is recommended to reduce glare.
