Art in the interior

Obeying the designers, they may be a link between the individual elements of the room or fill a malfunctioning space blend in with interior design, animate shapes of furniture and highlight key points, contributing to functional zoning, underline style, to create a certain atmosphere ... But apart from a modest role enhancement, the details of making the interior completed, any work of art can take one of the main places in the home or office, to be the main decoration in the room. Due to the painting, murals or pictures have undoubted artistic value, the owner of the house presents itself as a creative person who has a sense of beauty and has a high spiritual needs. That kind of thing says a lot about his outlook and taste (and sometimes wealth), hints at the lifestyle of the owner, it generates the desired image.

However, in any case (whether it is the author's exclusive thing or just a spot to support the curtains) any work of art should not appear in the interior of accidentally.

Should always begin at the stage of development of the overall project design residential or commercial premises. Pre-selected items that fit into the overall concept of interior (as well as consistent with its geometry and determine the location of lighting, niches, etc.) performs a designer of each wall to choose to work in an appropriate design (prints, mats, etc.) and plans are hanging on every room. After all, the right to place art in the interior - this occupation that requires a certain skill and taste. And now the question is not about the quality of various art objects (even if a designer or decorator offers choices and protects them - the final choice is always yours), and about literacy - both technically and compositionally - the location of the landscape design project.

By choosing a subject an interior painting, graphics, small plastic and so should pay attention to genre and theme product line with the functional purpose of each room. For example, in the kitchen or dining room would be appropriate still-lifes of various eatables and art ceramics, in the living room - landscapes and portraits, in his office - a tapestry, painting or sculpture, depicting a hunting scene or a poster with a map of the world, in the bedroom - an easy thing nude, executed in watercolor and batik, etc.

In addition to the contents of the selected works of great importance for their tonal and color - must be harmoniously and deliberately enter art into the overall palette of the interior.

It is also natural that the style and the idea of living space, hotels and coffee shops is a determining factor when choosing a pattern or floral composition. Any work should highlight and expand the topic defined in the interior, whether eastern luxury, classic and hi-tech. Abstraction in the spirit of Malevich will decorate a modern loft, a classic, full of tragedy marina in carved gilt frames - receiving in the spirit of Baroque statues handcrafted from exotic woods will blend into ethnic "bungalows."

However, not enough to pick up elementary supermatizm to minimalism and decorative amphora to classicism - every interior meets not only the style and genre, but also a certain kind of art.

In one house would be more appropriate painting, and in another - Uzbek carpets or black and white photography. If dining in a country style cottage with fireplace and wooden furniture will suit painted pottery and vintage images, then the modern beauty - colorful posters. Or, for example, tapestries were historically part of the decoration of palaces and castles - respectively such things in their classical performance fit for the rich country houses with traditional interiors, and a studio apartment will fit into a democratic fotoprint.

Concluding the conversation about the right choice of art, it is necessary to emphasize that interior design is desirable to use copyright works. This does not mean you have to sell all the property, and relatives to surrender to perpetual slavery for the sake of his box from under the TV to hang a genuine Van Gogh. Buy "live" work can be young or "not promoted" artists - the main thing is that the selected hurt you for a living.

Once the artwork selected, they need to properly execute and place in the interior. Typically, clearance to be painting, drawing and photography. Wall panels and tapestries enclose baguette similar pattern, although they do not always need extra clearance, as in themselves have a rigid shape and decorative edge. But batik, executed on fine silk, you need the stretcher, and prints.

With regard to registration of paintings and graphic works, there are rules and canons. Frames should not just framing a picture or photograph, it should be with her one-track, whole, perfectly matched in style and color, and shape, and size. However, the frame must not only conform to the actual work of art, but, equally, to the interior, where it is located. For oil paintings and is located in a classic study, fit the massive decorative gilt frame, for easy graphics or photos - a simple and unique aluminum or wooden frame.

Ideal background for any work is monotonous wall. Patterned, bright walls "eat" your picture. The maximum that you can afford (eg, hanging watercolor paintings) - Discreet and small ornament on the wallpaper.

If you do not place the cloth hanging too high, the optimal height for a medium format - at eye-level person of average height. If a group of different-things - make a balanced composition (first on paper or on the floor), which optimally fit into the space allotted to it. Paintings, photographs, etc. can not only hang - they can simply put on the floor, leaning against a wall or placed on an easel.

The ideal lighting for works of art will be a good general light in the room, but sometimes you need to provide additional illumination. Sales have special lighting to highlight - the optimal length of such a device 2 / 3 the length of the frame. If this is the usual lights, do not forget about safety of paintings and graphics: Use a weak light (better to use a halogen) and locate it no closer than 1 meter from the works of art.

In no case do not put pictures in direct sunlight - they distort color perception, and it might just ruin everything.
