The Art of Interior Design

    


  
   In our time every person who respects herself wants to have a suitable home atmosphere, made in its own style. Many of us feel that we want it but we still need an artistic vision, a flexible thinking and talent to achieve it.
  Decorating the house is a perfect way to express your personal style and individuality. Although it can be a daunting experience for some, in the end you will see that was an experience that required enthusiasm and may be you will have many benefits from it. A house shouldn't be just a functional space, it can be time and space to relax, battery charge, fun, and can reflect aspects of your personality to world.
  Nowadays, the market is full of products for house as well as advice and information about decorations. This  information is found in books, magazines, television programs and on the Internet. Yet, with all this information, find a decorating style or theme can be a very difficult enterprise.
  The decoration is usually done when we move into a new house but can be also done when we want or when we don't like the old style anymore. When you decorate or redecorate a room, we must ask ourselves the following question: which is the purpose of this space? A space shouldn't serve only to a single purpose or certain activity; it can be arranged so that it can offer a certain mood. For example, the purpose a room in which we have meal is obviously to provide a space where people gather and eat. True, but the purpose may be also to make family members or guests feel welcome and give rise to pleasant conversation. The same does the bedroom whose purpose is to offer a place to relax, but it can be in the same time a peaceful place where we can rest, away from the bustle of everyday life.
  The next step is to find furniture and accessories that fit this place. Visiting shops is a great way to find out your preferences and to test personally different models. If you want to combine your personal style with the state and the position of the room, you should look through books for homes decorations. The best way to decorate is to have a clear plan in mind. In this way you avoid buying the furniture that only looks good, but doesn't fit in the room.
  It is very tempting to follow the trend of your design and decorations which are fashionable, but this will lead to frequent and costly redecoration. There are trend that resist a lot, while others fade as fast as a candle, and the difference between the two can be very easy to make. If furniture is made of natural materials, with clear lines and well prepared and incorporates some aspects of traditional design, then it is a classic one and it will resist longer. On the other hand, if it is made of synthetic materials, it has an ugly shape or color and it is very cheap, then probably it doesn't worth the money. One or two pieces of this kind can give a funny air to the room and can be removed or re-entered, but an entire room decorated with such furniture will surely be redecorated earlier or later. Investing in quality furniture will save time and money; in addition, it doesn't lose a lot of value when you decide to sell it.
