Dunno how to create a modernist style in the interior of the apartment

Often associated with the Art Nouveau styles with modern interior design, allowing one of the most common mistakes. If you do not understand for themselves the basic features and characteristics of style, my today's review for you.

Interior design in Art Nouveau style will appeal to those who are accustomed to live with the times, but sometimes nostalgic for the past

Modern three-headed snake

Nouveau - a general concept that combines several styles, this is what gives rise to confusion. The word "moderno" translates from Italian as "modern", but agree that the present 50 100 years ago was quite different.

Color Nouveau restraint

The historic Art Nouveau

The very first call modernity interior style from the 1880s until the First World War. He was characterized by motifs of climbing plants, aqua, lily flowers, irises, cyclamens, rhyming with plant forms swan necks, languid and pale female face with long wavy curls.

Today is a historic Art Nouveau is extremely rare

Modern aspired to a combination of artistic and utilitarian functions. That is why this style has captured all the buildings, furniture, decorative ceramics, printed graphics, interiors.

Modern, like the concept of "not classic"

modernist architecture introduced the fashion for functionally grounded, free layout, used frame structures, new decoration and building materials:

• reinforced concrete,
• forged metal,
• glass,
• tiles,
• raw stone,
• plywood,
• canvas.

Modern in the modern sense

Modern worldwide had dozens of names, because in England it was called modern style, in the US - "Tiffany" in France - Art Nouveau in Austria - "Secession", Italy - "Liberty".

Mid-century modernism

Medieval Art Nouveau determine the time frame 1950-1960-ies. It drew its inspiration from the designers of the simplicity and functionality of the Brazilian and Scandinavian interiors.

Mid Century Modern bordered with Scandinavian style

Mid Century Interiors easily recognized by the large, wide windows, post-and-beam construction of buildings, reduced the number of internal walls. As a result, space acquires lightness and airiness. Another distinctive feature - the white walls that serve as inconspicuous backdrop for furniture.

Russian Art Nouveau

Mid Century modernist style typical of high-quality furniture, a love of natural materials and bright colors. Flowing silhouettes historic Art Nouveau gave way to straight, precise lines and functional rectangular silhouettes and sophisticated finish - a quality factor without frills.

Love modern to naturalness

Modern and "not a classic»

On the one hand, I can not call this a full style definition, but that it often helps to find a consensus. Suffice it to say, "Anything that is not a classic", to understand what we are talking about a modern style.

Modern, bordering with the classics

subtleties of style

Furniture subtlety

1. A variety of shapes and forms. With the advent of modernity greatly expanded the range of types of furniture, to fashion Olympus climbed model with bizarre outlines and non-standard sizes.

The concept of built-in furniture for the first time appeared in the days of headship modern. Sophisticated, exquisitely decorated mantel shelves and cabinets as if growing out of the walls.

Strange shapes of furniture in the Art Nouveau style

1. Curly and smooth lines. This is the most typical, a bright sign of furniture in the Art Nouveau style. ornate chairs, sofas, tables and shelving units subordinated modest internal lines and contour, but massive cabinets usually had a quiet silhouettes, their curved lines longer observed in decor.

Vision modernist contemporary designers

1. the nature of assimilation. The silhouettes of the furniture, the decor of the trim and decorative carvings read patterns and contours of flowers, butterflies, birds or even fantastic creatures.

Bizarre forms - "hobby" of modernity

1. muted colors. Art Nouveau alien bright open colors, but the "Twilight Palette", sophisticated shades of nature - it is always welcome. Often furniture upholstery fabrics are used to the effect of flicker and low tide, muted patterns with floral motifs.

Monsieur Modern prefers beige

1. Asymmetry. Due to the fact that modernity focuses on the natural world, often seen in furniture asymmetry. It may relate to the backrest, the location of the doors and sections cabinet countertop or shape.
2. Comfort. Whatever furniture, it will always have the highest rates of comfort and convenience.

Be confident, modern furniture - a comfortable

1. smooth surfaces. Another distinguishing feature of modern furniture - scrupulous polished to a high gloss coating and quality in furniture lacquers.
2. The abundance of decor. Natural wood is successfully combined with inserts and plates of brass, silver, copper, ivory, pearl, stained glass, majolica, mirrors.

How do I know Nouveau? The abundance of decor!

About the importance of color

The color scheme chosen for the interior should create a sense of calm and measured.

Gamma is formed of several components:

• Background dominant color;
• color decor of active elements;
• additional color texture to secure the style.

Black and white very well form the Art Nouveau

The duo of the Viennese Art Nouveau and Art Deco

Well, it's time to move from theory to practice and show you some examples of embodiment of modernity in modern apartments and houses.

General view of living room

The basis for the interior apartment of 150 m² has been taken stylist Austro-Hungarian apartments, gained its popularity in the early last century. Unique flavor without the pomp and frills set up a successful company of natural wood, marble, precious fabrics and light motifs of Art Deco.

Interior details

The main task was to divide the apartment area on the public in the development of the project, the guest, the private zone.

Mini Account

All premises managed to eliminate shortcomings due to a multi-level lighting and illumination of individual elements of the interior. So in the passage of the duo large mirrors and lamps will significantly expand the space, and concealed lights a little "raise" the ceiling.

lighting organization

Special attention deserves the kitchen. The main request of the owner was placing on a modest area of ​​the maximum amount of furniture along the walls and a small table, which would be used every day.

The only solution was the placement of the table by the window. The furniture did not close the radiator, it has shifted towards slightly raised.

Kitchen interier

The next room, where do we go - it's a guest bedroom, captivating with its lightness. Achieve this effect helped natural shades and emphasis on the texture of materials and fabrics.

bedroom interior

The highlight of the bedroom - a panel of altokki enclosed in the mirror. Decorative element departs from the Art Nouveau and bears the stamp of Art Deco.

The interiors of the apartments in modern style with emphatic brevity

Flat area of ​​115 m² was the rare case of a successful plan, so small changes have only a combined kitchen-dining room.

Part of the living room and hallway

The interior is made according to the rules of modernity with an emphasis on natural materials. The interior walls decorative plaster used warm shade of beige, the floor is laid environmentally friendly and practical cork.

Accent wall of veneered panels

Zoning living room and the dining room was carried out by a different floor. Accent walls of the living room and hallway are decorated with veneered panels, against the background of large, heavy pieces of furniture do not look so massive.

Kitchen-dining room

The guest bathroom has a modest area (only 5 m²), but this did not prevent him to fit in an elegant shower, full-sized toilet and sink.

Emphasis on natural materials

Cabinet - not just a place to work, and the territory for communication in a narrow circle and privacy. Here, the power given to the English style that can be seen in "Scotswoman" used for the upholstery of chairs and falshkamine trimmed with stone plates.

The interior of the cabinet

To discreet bedroom interior does not look dull, it "enriched" in the textile complex shades: smokey gray, coffee, menthol and plum.

For ceiling moldings chosen decor, emphasizing the suspension structure. A wide frieze encircles the openings of windows, cornices hidden in a niche between the window and the ceiling.

Modern, who was friends with the Scandinavian style

The project of the house combines two styles - modern and Scandinavian. I wonder what came of it?

living room interior in modern style with Scandinavian flair

The house is practically did not change, the only new element was the design wall erected in the living room and separating the sitting area from the dining area.

Modern and Scandinavian style allow combine softness and brightness of the light palette

Inspired by American and European décor, the owners decided to erect this massive wall electric fireplace that combines the two spaces.

A temporary on-site fire settled Regiment

The floor in the living room is decorated with ceramic tiles, imitating marble, under it - the system of floor heating. Cosiness gives polusherstyannoy carpet in the technique of patchwork, which has found its home in the sofa.

Creative mini-workshop

Home space as open as possible, so in the design, I tried to stick to one style. All bathrooms have a minimum of furniture (here traced Scandinavian minimalism). In the living room - a table, a sofa, a couple of chairs and built-in shelves for expensive heart trifles.

Kitchen interier

The kitchen has occupied part of the first floor. It is ruled by symmetry, seen in the headset and the decor. Interior wagered on the contrast of light facades and black skirt in the work area.

The main color of the kitchen and bathroom - White

Children's room for one to two children. The sleeping area is arranged with a double bed, the lower and upper tier. Such structures are convenient presence stairs-boxes, which have been successfully stored in the toy.

Children's room

Window decor - roller blinds, just in the bedroom curtains hung tissue, giving comfort room.

Bedroom design

In the bedroom there was a place big bed and a dressing room. The biggest bathroom adjacent to the bedroom. The interior is bright shades for finishing sinks and countertops used natural marble.

A small working place in an open space

Modern with colored halls

This apartment is already notable for its location. Moscow's famous "House on Mosfilm", built by the project Sergey Skuratov, received numerous architectural awards. And as they say, it requires the exterior.

Living in a modern style given to the power of cold shades of blue and gray

Owners prefer the classics, but it was bound to be modern. Thus was born the duo of classic and modern.

Initially, the apartment had a narrow elongated rectangle shape with four windows at the ends, so much space is left with no natural light. Owners was important to have two bedrooms with walk-in closets and bathrooms, living-dining room and separate kitchen.

living room design

Four windows I gave the rooms, the panoramic won bedroom.

The owners of the apartment inclined to neutral colors with bright accents, in most cases, the role of the latter performs textiles, but not in this project. The main color accents began communicating halls, thereby creating a very unusual and ingenious concept.

The kitchen is tiny enough, since virtually the owner does not prepare his own hands

Plan assumed three halls: the front has become completely neutral, it can not be said about the other two. Right dark blue hall, decorated with contrasting white paneling, here you get into the living room. By the way, the latter supported the color gamut of the hall and meets the blue curtains and blue accents.

In the living room there is a panoramic window (it went to the bedroom), but in this situation, there were also positive aspects. We came to a place of deep niches at the window, where undeveloped cozy library. Thanks to the two side lamps corner turned into an ideal place for reading.

A few words about the decor and accessories in modern style

Another island of comfort in the living room - fireplace area with a large floor lamp and bookshelves.

Just beyond the living room is a kitchen, the overall color of interior orientation supported blue-blue ceiling, the very same kitchen - absolutely neutral.

Bedroom with panoramic window

To the left of the main hall is a neutral red, followed by its start takes private part of the apartment. With red hall you get into the bedroom with a giant panoramic window.

Interior bathrooms

At the end of the private part is neutral bathroom with black and white mosaic and light-gray finish of the walls.

guest bathroom

The interior is used:

• table - Julian Chichester;
• table lamps - Eichholtz;
• chairs - Marie's Corner;
• hanging lamp - Davidts Stephane;

A little retro in the heart of Moscow

The starting point was a standard apartment layout in the home 1980 years of construction. All redevelopment were limited to the construction of niches for clothes in the hall area and placing a glass partition in the bedroom. Interior recover from mild nostalgia, skillfully inscribed in the "timeless" design.

The interior is timeless

For the linen curtains with wavy patterns hidden niche, there is place a pair of hangers for coats and shoes. Full wardrobe sliding doors closed. Inside design has a light amber color box, from the living room, it looks like a decorative insert on the niche.

Accent color - amber

Unfortunately, the sun rarely peeps into the apartment. Eliminate this feature can only be at the expense of properly chosen color scheme, in the area of ​​kitchen-living room light blue wallpaper that I would look foreign, if not bright thin strip located above the sliding partition, and repeats the decorative window amber.

Interior hallway

The interior is not devoid of contrasts, they appeared in the original art objects in the living room and walls. For the last selected decorative plaster color of eggplant, which has some similarities with a natural volcanic stone. The motif is supported by a coffee table with ceramic top.

Decorative wall decoration textured plaster

If your interior is not able to perfectly hide communication, use the reception by the curtains on the wall. So you can get the effect of a corner window.

window Decor

At the head of the choice of furniture was comfortable. In the living room there was a spacious corner sofa from BoConcept. His thin metal legs resemble pieces of furniture of the last century, retains the appearance lightness, despite the rather impressive size.

General view of living room

Style armchairs, dating back more than 60 years, received a second life due to necking and new upholstery light shade. Next to the seating comfortably settled showcase, performing the role of "garage" for vintage cars collection.

The kitchen is "hiding" behind a sliding partition

Doors in hue Wenge successfully completed the interior through a sliding partition formed in the same color. Oak board amber, laid in the living room, smoothly into metlahskoy tile.

Kitchen

The owner of the apartment rarely cook at home, so the need to equip a huge kitchen with lots of cabinets was not.

The main kitchen colors: black, white, brown

A dishwasher, washing machine and refrigerator hidden behind the facades of custom cabinets. A place where traditionally placed second row of cabinets occupied posters.

Cabinet Corner

Especially I had to work hard over the bedroom, which resembles a car. To minimize the feeling of being on the train and allowed the zoning division of the space into a recreation area and an office. Separating element was the partition with colored glass.

storage in the office

In the office there was a place a small table and a few storage systems: the chest of drawers in the industrial style and oak cabinets with windows, lenses, resembling small portholes.

Rest zone

The recreation area is decorated with neutral pattern wallpaper. Bright accent became terracotta curtains and headboard.

Interior details

Lighting - French chandelier, brought from Majorca (price - 8700 rbl.). As decoration used the oval mirror, linocuts and black-and-white graphics.

Accessories and decor
