This month’s theme about White & Delight has to do with the art of mixture in interior design. I wanted to share more information on this topic and write about as You can apply the art of the mixture in your own home.
When I first sat to write this article, I thought about the kitchen book Salt, fat, acid, heat By Samin Nosrat (one hand in hand!). No, this is not an interior design book, but is A book that helps people discover how to mix and balance different elements in the kitchen. I decided to adopt a similar approach and write about how different elements can be mixed in the field of interior design.
Today I am sharing the five key interior design elements that all my favorite rooms have in common: color, pattern, texture, something old and something that bases the space. Here is why each of these elements matters.
5 Interior design elements each room needs
1. Color
If a painting class is ever task, you know that painters usually begin with a large field of a color on their canvas, which add up as they advance. Consider the room that is designing a canvas. Choose its base color first (which can be the existing color of the room ORPÍN A color that plans to bring), then consider which complementary colors would like to add to the mixture. This article about color theory will help you start having an idea of how different colors play together. This article of House and garden It is also an interesting version of the color rules, according to interior designers.
2. Pattern
The pattern adds interest, depth and emotion to any room. Without it, a space can feel somewhat flat. The patterns can be bold or subtle, colorful or neutral, and applied widely or selectively. From tapestry paper to upholstery and back and decoration elements, there is no shortage of ways to take the pattern to a home.
3. Texture
I love adding texture to any room. Similar to the Roman without a patron, the rooms without variety or textures feel somewhat boring to me. I especially like to bring texture through fabrics (EC, velvet, linen, wool) and materials (for example, rattan, marble, rustic wood, metal).
4. Something old
There is always space for something old in any room, particularly in spaces that are mostly full of newer parts. Either furniture, art, lamps or small decoration items, old parts bring character and charm to a home.
5. Something that bases the space
A grounding element is something that acts as the base of a room; It is what joins the entire design. I use a space for a space more frequently. It helps define the seat area in a living room, bedroom or dining room. Also sacrifices another opportunity to bring color and texture to a space. Tapiz paper can also be used as a grounding element, as special if it applies to an accent wall and uses a bold pattern.
If you keep these five elements at the forefront of your mind through the design process, the art of the mixture will become much simpler. All these elements are things that can continue to push and throw as their design preferences evolve. After all, every room in our house is destined to be seasoned and refined, little by little, instead of once once.
