First, the type of screen in front of the door
1. Curved screen is a foldable screen, also called soft screen, enclosing screen and folding screen. Different from the hard screen, it does not need a base, and consists of even numbers, ranging from two to dozens. Each screen is connected by brocade, which is characterized in that the screen can be folded 360 degrees in both directions, which is more flexible to use and is mostly used for temporary display.
2. Screen insertion is generally a single fan, with large and small shapes. The big one is 3 meters high and the small one is only 20 centimeters. Most of the big ones are located indoors facing the door, and their height depends on the size of the room and the portal. Small ones are mainly displayed on tables or boxes for viewing.
Hanging screen is a kind of screen card hanging on the wall for decoration, which began to appear in the late Ming Dynasty. Generally appear in pairs or sets, such as plum, orchid, bamboo, chess, calligraphy and painting. Hanging screens in Qing Dynasty mostly replaced painting axes and hung on the wall, which completely broke away from the category of practical furniture and became a purely decorative category. Among them, a group of four screens is called four screens, and a group of eight screens is called eight fan screens. Some of them have a nave in the middle and a couplet on each side.
Second, how to choose the screen in front of the door
1. On the field, there are many kinds of screen materials, most of which are made of wood, as well as paper screens, metals, plastics, bamboo and other materials. The specific choice of screen material depends on your own decoration style and your own preferences! However, if the home is decorated in Chinese style, it is recommended to choose a screen made of solid wood. The combination of solid wood and Chinese-style home has a "natural" China flavor!
2. When choosing a screen, its color and pattern must be consistent with the decoration style at home. Then decide the right screen according to your own preferences or the five elements of Feng Shui! In terms of colors and patterns, such as styles and screen techniques, we should carefully choose whether they are exquisite, and also carefully observe individual small details to see if they are meticulous, especially when choosing screen partitions with carving, hollowing out or embroidery techniques.
3. In addition to the first two items, special attention should be paid to the combination method. If the combination method is convenient and easy to learn, it will help users to achieve their goals easily when they need to change themselves. In addition, the panel combination of the screen is also very important. Generally speaking, most screen panels have three kinds of panels that can be freely matched: rail panel, nail panel and whiteboard panel, which will help you gain more ideas and methods when assembling the screen.
