Decorating your apartment can be a fun project, and with a myriad of styles out there in this day and age, the world is your oyster when it comes to giving your living space a new look!
Japandi is a new style that became famous in 2020, it is coined after the Japanese and Scandinavian styles. This style of decor is aesthetically satisfying and emphasises minimalism. It is also simplistic and practical. It combines natural fibres, neutral hues, and clear, wide spaces joined with rustic features, true to the Japanese style of living.
To obtain such a look into your apartment, keep in mind less is more. The furniture should be simple and should blend shades that invoke tranquillity and comfort. You can add hand-crafted objects and ornaments with distinct lines. Wooden surfaces provide a more profundity and earthiness to your surroundings.
Geometric designs and patterns are quite a trending force nowadays when it comes to interior design. Geometric patterns are easy to find, so overdoing it can kill the effect as well. The patterns need to be laid out subtly. Choose a space in your apartment that needs some attention, this could be the living room or even in the kitchen space. Thereafter explore the patterns that most suit your fancy, and coordinate how to integrate them. For example, in the kitchen, you can use geometric patterns for your island, and enhance it with similar patterns on kitchen accessories such as oven mitts, kitchen towels, carpets, or tiles.
One of the most striking and refined interior designs for an apartment is the contrast of black and white. Modern interior designers usually blend these colours along with a burst of another colour to enhance the contrast. The adding of metallic hues adds a certain flair as well. To properly match rooms with black and white, manage black as the complementary colour and white as the primary tone.
Pondering over whether you should brighten up your apartment a little bit? The combination of varieties of pink is a great way to bring about a sense of character to the apartment. Shades of pink can be paired according to the pink colour palette. The colour wheel comprises baby pink, rose pink, blush, pastel pink, bronze, taupe, and different shades of pink that will illuminate a dull room. Though this may seem overtly feminine, it need not be around every room of the apartment. The pink colour scheme can be used to emphasise existing features or to present a subtle charm regardless of gender.
A bathroom is a significant place for us, we spend a large section of our time getting ready, showering and grooming for the days ahead. It can also be a place of respite, a place to relax at the end of a hard day, with a nice warm shower or bath. Interior designing your bathroom can be innovative and fun. With opportunities to hang bold wall décor, arts and highlighting details that show your interests. A degree of personalisation is more permissible in a bathroom than in other areas of your home.
