How to Decorate the Walls with Pictures
Decorate the walls with pictures is a home can be a great addition to the decor environment, but also can be a disaster if we do not take proper aesthetic criteria for sorting.
When choosing frames into a whole in a wall, we must ensure that there is harmony among them and with the existing decor. There are a number of criteria for the ordering of pictures on the wall.
Criteria for a wall decorated with pictures:
The tables are a complement to the decor, and give a personal touch. A good distribution increases the value of decoration, but when all is not harmonious, cause an adverse visual impact.
The distribution of the pictures on the wall should be sufficient to contemplate the complex from the standpoint of the observer.
It is best not to put too many pictures on one wall so that no detail is lost. But depending on the decoration and the type of picture, we can form sets of many pictures with similar themes to form a unique group. For the minimalist decor, we can only place one picture per wall, up to two or three, but a similar theme.
An effective way to decorate with pictures and achieve good distribution is put on the floor and finds the right combinations. The picture frames can help us to standardize the whole forming, but do not have a similar theme.
We must not forget the taste typical of those who inhabit this home, the pictures should respond to it, otherwise, the decor does not fulfill its main function is to improve the quality of life for people living in one place.
Currently, due to different trends in decoration, there is no strict criterion for hanging pictures, but rather is left to common sense and good taste.
The pictures should not be too high; the best way to enjoy them is from a seat, so the maximum height must not exceed the height of a person standing, so it is not necessary to raise his eyes too, so it would seem that Pictures are floating on the wall.
It is preferable to avoid cluttering the walls decorated with paintings. Nor should put groups of pictures on every wall, it is best to choose a single wall and put all the pictures in it, to avoid a sense of awe that can cause the walls loaded.
We always leave enough space between tables. The width of the tables should not be less than the width of the space left between them.
The small pictures should not be hung in isolation but should form a group with others of similar size. In contrast, medium-sized boxes may be forming groups of two or three, but also alone. And the large, must go alone on a wall.
Secrets of the Minimalist Decor
The minimalist decor is one that reduces the decorative objects to a minimum, dispensing with all superfluous or unnecessary elements to create relaxed environments.
The use of colors is based on standard notions, preferring monochromatic tones, with little variation. The basic walls can be white or light colors like coral or green. Reflexives are preferred and neutral colors, so that the light is distributed smoothly through space. By the lighting and colors, highlights the architectural features of the spaces.
Aspects of the minimalist decor:
The spacious, light and the careful study of the distribution of the elements, make the features of the minimalist decor.
The furniture is sleek lines, devoid of ornamentation. The walls look bare or populated for some time that, highlighted element in the environment.
The lines are pure and basic geometric shapes are dominant. The whole is harmonious and balanced.
The minimalist style originates in New York in the 60s, raised the minimum visual arts movement and geometric. In architecture precludes ornate decoration of the previous years.
The minimalist rooms radiate peace and calm, its clean lines and lack of accessories, combined with lighting to create quiet environments. It is an elegant and austere that innovates in its finishes and shapes. Volumes play with the lights and finishes, to form solutions of high coherence. Some authors define this decoration as “deco silence” because of its lines exudes a feeling of relaxation and simplicity.
The colors range from white to black and roasted, with minimal touches of some neutral color, which should be studied carefully to not upset the balance. The fabrics used are plain or geometric designs.
