With the help of the control mechanism, the tissue rolls begin to move relative to each other, hence the strips begin to change their position. When opaque parts coincide, less light enters the room, and if there are more transparent, more. Thanks to this, an interesting effect of the game of shadow and light is achieved, which gives the room a stylish and slightly mysterious look.
