Or to create your own, a kind of "paradise", where you can relax and relax, installing in addition to this place a coffee table and a comfortable chair.
With the help of frescoes, it is possible to "shade" individual pieces of furnishings.
Creating a single composition

Drawings of large outdoor vases with flowers, placed on the living room wall, will be organically combined with the rest of the decor, regardless of the style of the room.
Useful advice

And first of all, not because fresco-professionals for their services are expensive.
In case of damage to the picture, it will not be difficult to restore it yourself, and with your own hands, as the one who has already done this will cope with this work. After all, even if there are no talents in the field of graphics or drawing, a maximum of what is needed is white( or colored) paper, a pencil( paint with a brush), a carbon paper, a colorless varnish, glue. The most budgetary option.
And here again to invite a specialist, already for the restoration of his own made - the pleasure is not cheap.
Technique of the transformation of the interior is really "no number".And the most tempting in this design is that the option chosen by the owners, especially if it is independently implemented, no one will be able to repeat exactly. Copy, simulate - yes, but to make a "double" - absolutely impossible.
