Choose the style: Decorative items - recommended by Katalin Maróti

Unnecessary dust collectors or, on the contrary: expressions of our personality and style? Interior designer Katalin Maróti talks about the role of decorative objects in home decoration.

So let's keep a measure and pay attention to proportions and color harmony. Objects of too different styles are only very carefully combined, even if it is more fortunate if we decide in favor of a certain style and just "spice up" the view with one special piece.

THIS SPRING'S FAVORITES

In addition, the organic decorative objects, which I also really like, also demand attention. These pieces stand out not because of their pattern or color, but because of their natural shapes, the beauty of their imperfection - they are mandatory decorative accessories for wabi-sabi or Japanese-style interiors, but at the same time, I think that these pieces look like "chameleons" in any space. they show

IF IT'S DECORATION, THEN STILL MAXCITY!
