It is not easy to do repairs, adhering to a certain style or design. But it is even more difficult to take the first step and decide on the style of the apartment or house.
When you want something, but don’t understand what it is, it’s time to turn to expert advice.
Expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, advises taking a closer look not only at style, but also at other things.
1. Before you start choosing a style for your apartment, decide what style you like the most. It can be classic, modern or any other option that suits your taste and needs.
2. Explore different styles to understand what you like and what you don’t like. Look at interior photos, read articles and reviews, discuss them with your friends or loved ones.
3. Create a plan of your apartment to imagine which zones need to be allocated for each style. For example, a modern interior allows you to allocate a living room area and a bedroom area in one room.
4. Choose colors that match your style. If you prefer a classic style, use light colors and natural materials such as wood and stone. If you want to create a modern interior, use bright colors and modern materials.
5. Choose furniture that matches the chosen direction and creates a cozy atmosphere. For classics, samples with carving and gilding are suitable. Simple and functional furniture will fit into a modern interior.
6. Add accent details. For classics, these could be paintings with landscapes or still lifes. Modern styles call for bright accents. These could be art objects or pillows on sofas and bright textiles.
7. Don't be afraid to experiment and add new details. The main thing is that the apartment is cozy and comfortable for you.
