So that your house is beautiful and has an individual, it is not necessary to invest huge means in its design. A minimum of funds – and your fantasy will make the old country house and furniture be transformed into it, into which you will breathe a new life.
Make a kitchen in the same style, for example, Italian. Blue transparent curtains on the yellow lining create the effect of a warm, flowing sunlight that breaks through a blue haze. Decorate part of the wall or the entire wall with a double light curtain, this will add lightness and light to the room. Materials for such a curtain can vary, getting different lights: more sunny or cool (white – blue, blue – yellow, transparent – denser).
In the middle of the plank floor, paint the striped path, continuing the Italian theme. Each floorboat repeats the “sunny” gamma (blue – yellow – white, blue – olive – white, etc. D.). Draw brushes on the sides of the track.
Decorating with ceramic tiles transforms living space and furniture, even homemade and roughly knocked. The countertop of the old table can be lined with ceramic yellow tiles of different shades, which will create the effect of a sunny, light room. Ceiling beams and a buffet “grew up” with patining using an iron brush, and the lower part of the table by erosion of gray-blue paint. The thin game of golden glare and light blue shadows, the haze on the windows give the impression of ephemeral, airiness, which only enhances the metal utensils, polished to shine, suspended to ceiling beams on chains or cords above the cutting table in a wooden frame with a metal lattice and hooks.
The general festive mood will support the ornamental tile decor of the rear open walls of the sideboard, buffet, cabinet and shelves. Calmer tiles, but walls, countertops, sidewalls of furniture and sinks linen the same shades. To combine the decor of individual parts into the overall composition, on the walls in some places you can insert an ornamental tile, which lined the parts of the furniture. The optimal size of tiles for furniture cladding is not more than 10×10 cm.
Tiles go well with natural stone, brick and various plasters. If you build all the working surfaces on a foam concrete frame 10 cm thick, completely abandoning the kitchen furniture, and facing them with tiles that simulates the stoned stone, you can create the mood of ancient Italy. The style of the ancient Mediterranean house – CASA will emphasize the cladding of pieces of sneakers, the chipped porcelain border slabs on the floor, imitating sandstone or nostril limestone, and the cracked ceiling beams.
