Interior decoration can completely transform a room. Competently selected decor helps to give the home a special charm and style, emphasize the character and interests of the owners. Decorating itself is an affordable, quick and least troublesome way to “refresh” the existing interior. It is also an important final stage of any repair. After all, it is the accessories that give the dwelling a finishing touch and allow you to create a unique atmosphere.
Take into account the size of the room
In decorating the interior, it is important to keep track of the size of individual items to the dimensions of the entire room. Thus, massive statues or chandeliers are not suitable for a small room, as they will visually make it even smaller. Also in a small room you should avoid “oversaturation” details, otherwise the room will look cluttered. And for large areas can not choose too small accessories. After all, they can get lost in the space and will not give the aesthetic effect that was originally conceived.
Carefully select the color scheme
In a well-considered interior design, the decor can be close in tone or, conversely, noticeably contrast with the main color leitmotif. Often, to reduce the “pressure” of the dominant color and revitalize the design can not do without bright elements. However, too motley design can make the room overloaded, uncomfortable and in some cases even vulgar. Therefore, it is important to maintain the integrity and harmony of the color composition, without creating decor “visual noise”.
Use “rhyme” in the interior
Thoughtful decoration of the interior provides an artful combination of some items with others. This is necessary to give the design integrity. Any accessories, whether vases, clocks or flowerpots, should “rhyme”, that is, overlap in some characteristics (color, shape or texture) with other elements in the interior. For example, the texture of curtains can be repeated on the upholstery of chairs. And cushions can “echo” in color with hanging above the sofa paintings. And it is not necessary to use identical fabrics and shades, a similar palette, pattern or texture is enough.
Stick to a single style
Any items for decorating should correspond to the general stylistic concept. For example, a floral print in the loft or modern art objects in a classic interior will look out of place. In the same way, pictures in massive carved frames will look strange in the context of high-tech style. But black and white photos in laconic frames will fit perfectly into it.
Combine different textures
To make the design not look flat and boring, it is recommended to use a variety of textures in the decoration of the interior. In one room you can combine matte and glossy surfaces, for example, accessories made of raw wood and mirrors. It is good to combine different fabrics in the upholstery of furniture, for curtains and sofa cushions.
