Interior decoration
The profession that seeks to develop a pleasant and functional environment is known as interior decoration or interior design . To achieve this, experts analyze the surface components of the environment and work with dimensions and volume.
Among the trends that the decoration field experiences annually, and which determine, just as in the field of fashion, whether certain types of colors or styles are chosen, it should be noted that in recent times it has managed to acquire great presence and demand for what is called minimalist decoration .
Christmas decorations are usually highly appreciated.
Minimalism
This style of interior design is basically characterized because it is modern and very simple where order and the scarcity of ornamental elements prevail.
Likewise, among its main hallmarks are the use and predominance of neutral colors such as white or black, the preference for installing furniture with very straight lines, the use of few accessories and very good lighting.
Other types of decoration
In addition to this trend, also in the area in question we can talk about what is called rustic decoration . This is what is identified by the absolute predominance of wood, both in the floor and even in the walls, and also by the use of very robust furniture with very solid finishes .
In the same way, we cannot ignore the so-called classic decoration where warm colors abound, where the furniture is made with noble woods and where floral or geometric finishes are chosen.
Loft , pop-art , oriental or chic are other types of interior decoration.
Tasks of a specialist
A decorator , on the other hand, is a person who is dedicated to designing the interior of a house, a business, an office, etc. Their task includes analyzing the functionality of the space and the application of various styles to achieve the desired aesthetics .
The distribution of the furniture , the wall and ceiling covering, the type of floor and the inclusion of textile elements (such as curtains, tablecloths and rugs ) are some of the decisions that the decorator must make.
It is common for the decorator, before starting to work on the environment, to present a drawing or a diagram to the client to show what his idea is. If the client accepts the proposal, the decorator will be in charge of taking their project from paper to the home.
