“Bright colors and sharp contrasts look impressive in pictures in magazines, but they are not suitable for everyday life. I want to live in harmony. What could be more harmonious than white walls! Is it only light gray or light sand - for my taste. If at the same time the doors and the ceiling (and ideally also the floor) are made white, then you will have an incredibly light, calm space. And what's important is not monotonous. ”Carola Baumgarten, decorator.

Saturated colors are good in rooms, dark "from nature" - where there is no sunlight or it is not enough. Deep shades make them cozier.

4. Ornament and rhythm. Active ornament is relevant. But do not give him the whole room. When he goes in a continuous canvas, it tires the eyes, bothers.

You can order fabric with the same prints as wallpaper. Only use it moderately and at some distance from the “active” wall. Attention!

5. The fourth wall: a window. “It is very important how the windows are decorated. There is such a comparison: "Windows - the eyes of the house." Thought is not new.

Charm - in dissimilarity. I would not give specific tips on the decor. Listen only to yourself. ” Ralph Anstoetz (Ralph Anstoetz), designer and head of JAB Anstoetz.
