A wall, background for the furniture
May 26th, 2008
The walls of flat are usually only a background for our furniture. But it doesn`t have to be that way and in this season it shouldn`t. This time modern houses are having flower, animal or plant ornaments on their walls that make a unique separate design on their own!
This season we observe having something left from the style in interior decor when popular were shiny furniture in geometric shapes and usually in intent colours. The trend might be similar but the range of equipment we can use to make our room sparkling is getting wider. We can choose freely from many different paintings, wallpapers, or even types of plaster.
Main question is: what is really in fashion this year in home decor? This season the designers are recommending dark colours for the walls as similar to the natural colours of the ground. For those who are very brave home owners there are options for having walls in very dark grey, brown or green. The colours of the ground might be break down by violet, crimnet, brick red.
The general rule is that we are not avoiding colours, specially intensive ones. Also those which might seem unusual to decor our walls as for example black. And the structure of the wall might also not be traditionally smooth. Nice looking would be the one with grooves or even little bumps. But all done with regular simplicity.
Unfortunately we cannot mix those colours freely. We should rather decide on one particular colour and in this one have all our home accessories, gadgets, carpets. To break down the monochromatic dictature we can have one of our walls in different colour or wallpaper with big flower ornaments or flourishes ones. The ornaments should be big and visible but placed regular. The same emblem might be repeated on the carpets, mats, upholstery.
Orient culture is a great source of inspirations. Mostly in colouristic and ornaments. Dark, grey, green and navy blue walls we complete with golden and silver stripes, flowers, and other elements. Smooth obscure in some way walls we are comparing with light or lighter elements. This makes a regular and original composition really stylish.
So this year home decor is much about walls, dark wallpapers, and interior home accessories with floral ornaments. Those ornaments can be also shown in front of the house - not only as spring flowers in the garden but also as a spring door wreaths at your dark navy doors.
