Apartment design

Bold and modern – your home as a mirror of your essence

[:bg]

If there is something that betrays the character of a person, it is his habits. And if there is something that betrays the character of the home, it is its decoration.

Small details can turn the feeling of vast spaces upside down. There is no denying that you often notice small accents that tell you a lot – both about the place itself and about its inhabitants. So why underestimate the decoration of your own apartment?

In many cases, this is a never-ending process – precisely because you are constantly changing your tastes and changing your style. And it’s better that it is! The right accents have the power to significantly improve the interior, and an eclectic mix of elements in the space can be a request for modern and elegant taste in step with trends.

Always in fashion

An approach that we often choose in our work is for the overall interior to be in a clean and minimalist style. This allows you to play with key decorative elements that give the desired finish, bring color and even be a leading accent. This way you will always be able to distinguish yourself with the latest fashion, updating the decoration with a new, up-to-date item that will also reflect the change in your inner world.

A favorite trick that we apply in our latest projects is to add unique fashion objects that have the power to unlock life in a room in unexpected ways. A soulmate that we recognized in this endeavor are our partners from Elegant living. With them, we always manage to find the right decoration to emphasize the distinctive features of the character of our customers.

We believe that this approach can be adapted to any home, even if at first glance some of you interpret this as too bold and modern a way to insert a decorative element that will instantly grab attention. You should definitely not rule out this option, especially when you are looking for a strong accent to enhance the clean interior.

For extravagant and bold personalities, choosing an item visible outside the context of space is a very cool way to break up a minimalist and stylish home. This adds a bold touch to classic furnishings, for example.

Considering the decoration as an absolute mirror of your essence, it sounds logical to choose it yourself in the nuances of your mood and preference. For those of you with a pronounced affinity for design and distinct aesthetics, such an undertaking would rather be a personal bonus and a key to establishing your own style in décor. For others, however, it may be a wrong step away from the otherwise beautiful and conceptually built interior.

The application of accents should be in the direction of creating thrill through decorative elements and striving for a fashionable experience in an elegant home. So if you don’t feel brave enough and confident in supporting the “right” decoration, then our advice is to trust a specialist who will fully reflect your nature through specific objects. This will create a space that will be a real satisfaction for your senses and personal inspiration in your every day. [:]

The walls speak – an accent in the home with which you will impress

A mirror of fluid and experimental human nature, the trends for 2019 in home decoration are bold and more and more people dare to apply them in their homes. This year is definitely characterized by a shift in focus away from gray, neutral shades and a search for more vibrant colors on the walls to enrich spaces with a rich visual experience.

For a relatively long period, the leading choice in the interior was the gray range, creating a feeling of more air. This really frees up space for the presence of other types of accents. Now, however, people need to attract new emotions and sensations and turn to fresher tones and bold patterns. We notice a demand for more energy, with some preferring to be wrapped in colors directly. This study of the consumer outside the traditional framework is also due to the desire to establish their own style in the interior, which expresses a specific individuality and taste.

Connection with nature

This change in thinking takes the form of a harmonious restoration of the relationship with nature and its presence in different ways. Floral patterns are super relevant, and not from this year. Their consolidation as an active element in 2019 suggests an increasingly strong recognition with nature as part of the home. This really breathes new life into the walls and makes them a leading accent at the expense of a more neutral color scheme in the furniture.

The variety of patterns on almost any materials (wallpaper, tiles, textiles) allows the implementation not only in one room, but a synchronous approach with repetitive motifs throughout the home.

Live presence

Currently, Pinterest is measuring a 286% increase in demand for vertical gardens on the platform. Undoubtedly, this registers an obvious trend for the presence of nature, and not only as a pattern or print, but absolutely real. We often approach with the implementation of an entire green wall of natural vegetation. This even helps to contrast with the wall next door, highlighting the features of both.

Relief and textures

Tactile sensations add a new line of perception to the atmosphere and if you are a connoisseur of distinctive design, you should take advantage. An absolute favorite in 2019, the embossed patterns on the walls bring a touch of splendor, but at the same time can also show an elegant taste, combined correctly. Creating a contrast between two different fabrics is extremely appealing, and if you are not a fan of bright colors, this is a suitable way to create a distinctive element on the walls of the interior, preserving the range.

A stylish choice in this case would be the luxurious Belgian wall cladding made of natural materials OMEXCO and KHROMA, which demonstrate the unlimited possibilities of wallpaper in creating original interiors. Of course, this type of texture matching is thin ice for non-professionals. There is a real risk of overdoing it and instead of a subtle presence of matter, it will result in a crowded and pompous interior. Without hesitation, it is best to turn to a trusted designer to achieve the desired effect. [:]

Tips and ideas for functional home design

City life sometimes requires the choice of a small apartment, especially if it is at the expense of a convenient location. Without the need to transform the sofa into a bedroom every night, you can elegantly transform any of the spaces in your home into a cozy corner that you can use functionally in everyday life.

The large room is transformed into two new rooms

A classic solution is to convert a large room into two smaller ones. But how? First of all, the choice of whether to make this a permanent or flexible solution is important. You should definitely not miss the workpiece by changing the position of the lighting and all electrical outputs, so that they can be used comfortably in both cases. In fact, there are many different approaches to separating spaces – from building a wall to using folding screens or sliding doors.

However, it is not at all necessary to block completely. Convenient and letting the room “breathe” is the separation of the individual corners in it through furniture that comes into use. Casual and at the same time compact, this allows you to form different areas that complement each other.

Game of illusion

Color solutions are decisive for the interior of small spaces. That is why it is good for them to emphasize the feeling of spaciousness. A familiar trick is for one of the walls to be a leading accent that creates the illusion of depth in the room. This can easily be achieved either by using an active color, or by adding one of the trends this year – patterns with natural elements.

A mirror is also a clever way to create an optical elongation of space and is often used for small dwellings. We are applying this method in a current project, which we are yet to show you.

8 rules on how to choose the right interior color

[:bg]

Choosing the main color of the interior is key when creating a space

Let us tell you about the basic rules regarding color solutions in the interior, which will be useful to you in the design of your room.

Rule 1

First of all, it is important to define the individual functional roles of space. It is necessary to navigate it, pay attention to its illuminated places, and only then determine the options from the color palette.

The warm range is most often applied when the windows of a room have a northwest direction, in this case, soft tones will give the space warmth and coziness.

In addition, light tones visually increase the space, and the presence of halftones will add variety. Such colors are best used in the living room, bedroom or children’s room.

Rule 2

The cold range of colors is most often applied when the windows have a southeast location. This gives us access to more natural light, where cold tones will bring the necessary balance and harmoniously complement the atmosphere of the room.

Cold colors are successfully applicable in the hallway, work area, kitchen, bedroom or bathroom.

Of course, there are shades that are suitable for individual rooms.

Rule 3

Sometimes it happens that a cold shade can take on a warmer and softer hue , and vice versa, a warm shade can become colder and more refreshing.

Thus, suitable shades of favorite colors can be chosen and used in various interior solutions.

Rule 4

Monochrome solutions nowadays are quite modern, but at the same time very complex in implementation. In this approach, it is important to avoid enhancing any color.

For this purpose, it is best to use different tones of one primary color and experiment with angles where there is direct light.

Rule 5

The most popular is definitely the warm, pastel range of colors. This is because the combination of such colors is done without difficulty.

The colors are pleasing to the eye and are easily perceived by most people.

In pastel color solutions, it is also appropriate to play with warm and cold shades. In this way, we can achieve the necessary balance and coziness in the room.

Do not neglect the use of brighter tones of details and accessories to make the interior fresher.

Rule 6

Sometimes it is appropriate to use more than one shade of a given color. The important thing here is not to overdo it with the amount of shades, two or three colors as the main ones are enough, which is the rule for most interior solutions.

A variety of shades may be present in the decoration, but in the interior as a whole, it is desirable to stick to the main ones chosen.

Rule 7

Working with contrasting colors is suitable for spacious rooms, as there is more opportunity to play with colors. This approach is most often applied where it is necessary to divide a space into separate functional areas.

For a room with smaller dimensions, contrasting solutions can be applied in lighter tones. This will visually give more space, and accent solutions will give the room the effect of compositional completeness.

Rule 8

For fans of bright and colorful, you will like the bright color scheme , again using colors that are close in combination.

The optimal solution is to combine two colors similar in spectrum and one opposite in tone, which will give a stylish effect and will become a good solution to the task at hand.

SELECTING THE MAIN INTERIOR COLOR IS A KEY FOR CREATING A SPACE

Let us tell you about the basic rules for selecting colors in the interior that will help you shape your room.

Rule 1

Above all, it is important to define the separate functional roles of the interior space. It is necessary to orientate in it, to pay attention to its illuminated places and then to choose variants of color from the color palette.

The warm color scheme is most often applied when the windows of a room have a northwest orientation, in which case soft tones will give the space warmth and coziness.

In addition, bright tones visually expand the space, and the presence of shades will add variety. Such colors best fit into living rooms, bedrooms, or nurseries.

Rule 2

The cool color scheme is most often applied when the windows have a southeastern orientation. This gives us access to more natural light where the cool tones will bring the necessary balance and will harmoniously complete the atmosphere of the room.

Cool colors can be successfully applied in the corridor, work area, kitchen, bedroom or bathroom.

Of course, there are shades that are appropriate for each separate room.

Rule 3

Sometimes a cool shade of color can acquire a warmer and softer hue and vice versa – a warm one can become cooler and refreshing.

In this way you can choose the appropriate shades of favorite colors and use them in various interior solutions.

Rule 4

Monochromatic solutions are quite modern nowadays but very complex to realize. In this approach, it is important to avoid oversaturation of any color.

This is why it is best to use different tones of one basic color and to experiment with angles where there is direct light.

Rule 5

The most popular, of course, is the warm, pastel color schemes. This is because these colors are easy to combine.

They are pleasing to the eye and are easily perceived by most people.

While using pastel colors, it is also appropriate to play around with warm and cool shades. In this way we can achieve the necessary balance and coziness in the room.

Do not overlook the use of brighter tons on certain details and accessories in order to make the interior fresher.

Rule 6

Sometimes it is appropriate to use more than one shade of a color. The important thing here is not to overdo the number of different shades. Two or three colors as a basis are enough, which is the rule for most interior solutions.

There may be a wide variety of different shades in the decoration, but in the interior as a whole, it is desirable to stick to the main shades that have already been chosen.

Rule 7

Working with contrasting colors is appropriate for spacious rooms, as there is better opportunity to play around with colors. This approach is most often applied where it is required to separate the interior space into individual functional areas.

For a room with smaller dimensions, contrast solutions can be applied using lighter tones. This will visually add more space, and accent solutions will give the room compositional completeness.

Rule 8

The fans of the bright and colorful will like the bright color palette that also uses harmonious colors.

The optimal solution is to combine two adjacent colors in the color spectrum and one opposite in tone, which will give a stylish effect and will be good design solution.
