Modern in the interior: the characteristic features of the style of the
Modern is an amazing style. Undoubtedly, it is individual, it has its own characteristics, but it has a lot of borrowed. All this has led to the fact that this direction in interior design makes the interiors not only luxurious, elegant, but also practical, functional, cozy.
A distinctive feature was the smoothly curved line. It is present everywhere and everywhere - in the geometry of pieces of furniture, decor, ornaments on the walls, etc. Straight lines and clearly defined angles are practically absent. They were allowed only in the manufacture of cabinets, chests of drawers. It is simply impossible to see a rectangular sofa in the Art Nouveau style.
But in large quantities there are a variety of floral ornaments and glass - ordinary, stained glass, matte. Stained glass is another characteristic feature of style.
Returning to the same smooth lines, it should be noted a large number of arched elements in the interior. These are the backs of sofas, beds and armchairs, fireplaces, window openings, which are appropriately shaped. Modernity is characterized by artistic design of the openings in the interroom partitions - they simply can not remain indifferent to their bends( sometimes simply striking) and decoration.
Characteristic colors for Art Nouveau style
The palette of this style is not very special, but you can easily highlight the main colors, additional and accentuating. The first class includes mostly light and soft tones, visually expanding the space of the room. Perfectly suitable creamy, sandy, creamy and light blue, like a milk bleached color.
Extra tone - a brighter variation of the background. Example: if the walls and furniture are decorated in sand color, then an additional shade can be a "sunny lemon".This gradation allows you to emphasize the movement of lines in the interior, their transition from one form to another.
Accent attention details - it is often stained glass and dark wood on a light background.
The choice of modern furniture
For furniture in the style of Art Nouveau, the following features are characteristic:
- already known smoothness of lines, smoothness of corners;
- compactness, often hiding behind massive elements;
- convenience and functionality;
- simplicity of forms.
The main material for furniture production is wood. Ideally, it should coincide with a similar material of other products in color and texture. The addition of glass and textiles. Much less often they are made up of metal elements.
Please note: this stylistic direction involves placing pieces of furniture not at the walls, but in the center of the room. At the same time, only the most necessary items that meet its purpose are used to fill the room. For the living room there is a wardrobe, a sofa, a pair of armchairs, a table. For the bedroom - bed, chest of drawers or the same closet, dressing table.
One of the features of Art Nouveau is that furniture with a wooden surface should be much larger than with upholstered fabric. However, in modern conditions, it is difficult to do without soft sofas and armchairs, so it is necessary to competently approach their choice.
- Upholstery should not stand out in the interior palette. Ideally, if its color is not too expressive and will allow the product to get lost in the background of the walls.
- Upholstered furniture can be decorated with ornament and pattern, but necessarily monophonic and not contrasting with the background of the fabric.
Decor
Art Nouveau and stained glass as a decoration are indissoluble. Mosaics of colored glass can decorate walls, interior doors, furniture and various accessories. Inspired by nature, the style provides plant patterns and flowers on the glass, the presence in the interior of the figures of birds, animals and even insects. Mandatory attributes will be large mirrors in the baguettes and pictures.
Repair of an apartment in a modern style
The main surfaces - walls, floor and ceiling - are extremely important for modernity. They serve as a background for which special attention is required. It should be ideal to emphasize the style, the beauty of furniture and decor.
The following finishing materials can be used for walls:
- wooden panels predominantly of light colors;
- wallpaper with floral ornament or for painting, fabric wallpaper;
- paint;
- plaster;
- mosaic of ceramic tiles in the kitchen and bathroom.
Often, the walls were divided horizontally, decorating the lower part of the tree, and the top - with wallpaper with floral or floral pattern. For the design of door and window openings, wood is also used.
Please note: the characteristic element of the finish is curved lines reminiscent of swings of a whip or a whip.
In the style of the interior, the modern ceiling is either invisible at all, or, on the contrary, it captures the eye with the complexity of the design and stained-glass windows. In the first case, it is simply painted white or light beige, or logically continues the walls, repeating their finish and tone. Transitions between the walls and the ceiling are not accented, they have minimal design. Sharp corners soften with finishing materials. In the second case, suspended gypsum plasterboard structures are used.
The floor is wooden. Whether it is dark or light wood depends on the shades used in the overall color palette of the room. Parquet, laminate and imitating the corresponding material linoleum can be laid in the kitchen, in the living room and bedroom.
Lighting
Competent lighting is simply necessary for modernity. In this case, it should be not only functional, but also decorative. The first is organized with the help of ceiling chandeliers, sconces, floor and wall lamps and is designed to make the room light, cozy and comfortable for living.
The second - decorative - allows you to emphasize a particular element of decor, accessory, color transition, etc.
Lamps in this style differ elegance, unusual shapes and often asymmetric. Material of manufacture can serve as a tree, metal, colored glass. There are even elements from porcelain. Please note: the base of the lamp or chandelier must match the materials already used in the interior.
Construction of a country house in the modern style
- The facade of a country house is distinguished by all the same smooth lines, which make it possible to create a real work of architectural art. Complex planning, climbs, unexpected twists and turns - all this is typical for modernist buildings.
- As a covering material, stone, ceramic tile, plaster can be used. Ornament of a monochrome surface will become vegetative ornaments or lines as a "blow of a whip".
- A characteristic view of the house is given by windows - large and small, oval, round or elongated with smoothed corners.
- Not the last role in styling the facade is played by staircases - in no way direct! Even to the main entrance they can lead an ornate "path".
Modern is very popular in the field of suburban construction, because as a result of all the works you will definitely get a house that is not only comfortable and cozy, but also individual.
