Forests, stones and eco-friendly fibers are
seen as visually neutral elements, but they
have enough built-in texture and variety to
prevent the background from becoming
boring.
Consider using them as a natural
parquet-stone on your floor, marble-wood on your counter and handmade and
painted wall ornaments made of wicker
material or handmade ceramic objects, fine
linen texture and non-iron curtains inviting
daylight from your window to your room etc.
Regardless of styles, balance and symmetry
are important principles of design. However,
when there is too much visual stimulation
in an area, it will become harder to follow.
Balance and symmetry help our brain to
simplify design. According to the psychology
of Gestalt - a theory of thought that
focuses on our perceptions of our brains as
knowledge - our brains instinctively perceive
design in its simplest form. Repeating
identifiable models allows us to process the
visual information of the room faster. As a
result, we are more likely to find balanced
areas that are aesthetically pleasing. In
order to achieve this, you need to focus
only on the inclusion of furniture parts
and accessories that serve a very specific
purpose. This allows your eyes to relax and
focus only on the parts you add.
You will want to choose a colour that can be
repeated at multiple points in your designed
space. Consider using this colour on your
textile products such as knee blanket, pillow,
background curtain, wall murals and other
accessories. If possible, try to find that
colour in a variety of prints and patterns.
This will help you stay loyal to your eclectic
mix while gracefully immersing you into the
space.
What are the outstanding trends of 2019?
Bohemian design has been a sincere and
commanding, Mediterranean trend of the
last few years. It is quite intriguing with the
amount of freedom that it has. By mixing
and matching, you have the chance to
create a space design that expresses you
in a defined style that you can literally
imagine.
