It’s not uncommon for a problem to arise after a renovation is completed: the room looks clean and tidy, but at the same time it’s too empty and uncomfortable. One of the reasons for this problem is the lack of proper wall decoration. In order for the atmosphere of the room to be filled with coziness and comfort, it is important to properly decorate an empty wall. Traditional options (shelves, pictures) work flawlessly, but some may find them boring. However, it is not at all difficult to decorate an empty wall in an original way, turning it into ordinary interior in exclusive.
There are several most current methods decorate the wall:
Watch
Without a doubt, a clock in the house is simply necessary. At the same time, they can not only represent a functional element of the interior, but also be an exclusive accent of the room. Clocks built into the wall look very stylish - such models quickly gained popularity in the field of decor. Moreover, instead of a regular dial, you can use anything: pictures, photographs, unusual figures. Such watches can be a focal point and are guaranteed to turn any room into an exclusive and original one.
Another a win-win decorations empty wall watches - a selection of large vintage models. The huge clock in the room immediately attracts attention, and its appearance simulating vintage design, complements the interior with notes of aristocracy and sophistication.
Mirror
An equally functional piece of furniture: in addition to its direct purpose, with the help of mirrors you can visually enlarge the space, fill the room with depth and light and create coziness. If you need to create an interesting composition and emphasize the style of the room, it is better to use a group of mirrors. Such a solution will also emphasize the originality and extraordinary taste of the owners of the house. You can group mirrors in different ways: using the same shape or, on the contrary, creating a composition from a variety of models. The first option will emphasize severity and add elegance to the interior, while the second will add expression and dynamics by playing on contrasts.
The mirror frame is a separate detail that has long been used by designers as room decoration. It can be done in different styles and from various materials. So, for example, for the classic interior will suit wooden or stone frame with ornate patterns. IN modern styles plastic, metal, wooden frames, as a rule, geometric shapes.
Photos
Many people keep it at home a large number of photographs, but this is an excellent material for decorating walls. By making collages, we not only decorate the wall, but also create an object that will inspire us every day. After all, you can compile a selection of photographs according to any criteria; here you can give free rein to your imagination. For example, you can select photographs by color: to match the walls or other accents of the room. Usually used for the kitchen bright photos single-colored vegetables or fruits. In the living room or bedroom, you can create thematic collages according to the plot or style. You can use the same photo frames - this will unify the composition.
A great option is to decorate the wall family photos. You can depict a family tree on the wall, in which case you will need many photographs of all family members. Or you can make a selection of photographs of children - in this case, the collage will tell the story of their lives. In any case, each of the options for such decor will turn out to be individual and unique.
Paintings
One of the most popular items in room decoration. This is not surprising, because a correctly selected painting can turn a simple interior into a real work of art.
Nowadays, very large paintings without frames are becoming increasingly popular. This technique is used so that the frame does not distract attention from the drawing itself. The color scheme and image should be in harmony with the rest of the interior and in no case overload it.
The theme of the image should also not contradict the atmosphere of the room: still lifes look great in the kitchen, paintings and industrial landscapes in the living room, and sea and natural landscapes in the bedroom. One of the universal options is a painting in the abstract genre. However, this option is difficult to match to the interior classic style. The main criterion for choosing such a painting is the color scheme and line shapes. The popularity of abstract paintings is partly due to the fact that they look very stylish and create an atmosphere of sophistication and sophistication in any room.
You can create collages from small framed pictures - this technique will create a youthful design in the room.
Paintings and posters look no less impressive. Essentially, posters are a printed image, and the printing material can be either plain paper or artistic canvas. The main advantage of such paintings is a huge selection, fast and relatively inexpensive custom production. If you wish, make a beautiful poster from any photograph you like, which will enliven and complement the interior.
Volumetric compositions
Global trends in design art do not stand still, and in addition to the eternal classics, new decorative trends are emerging. Not so long ago, various volumetric compositions were at the peak of fashion, and their material and shape are the widest field for creative ideas. For example, decor made from hats looks very unusual, and creating such a decorative addition with your own hands is not at all difficult.
Thematic compositions look very exotic, the basis for which is the hobbies and hobbies of the owners of the house. In this case, the composition, in addition to being decorative, also has an informative character - it tells about the preferences of the people living in the house.
Decorative plates - another one original way decorate the wall. Moreover, they can be made from different materials and combined in one composition. The belief that decorating walls with plates is only appropriate in a classic interior is completely wrong. For example, wicker plates will perfectly emphasize the country style, painted ones will suit French style, and bright, simple shapes - to any of the modern ones.
Volumetric compositions on the wall can be the most unusual - this is limitless scope for creativity. Various applications, interesting figures, original materials and shapes - all this can be an excellent material for creating an exclusive composition that will decorate the wall and add coziness to the room.
