Are you furnishing an apartment? Don't repeat these ideas

When buying an apartment, everyone wants to arrange the space in the best possible way. As a rule, we choose solutions that we have seen in catalogs or in other houses and apartments. The Metrohouse agency has collected the five most popular interior design elements. You can use these ideas, but know one thing - you will not be original.

Brick on the wall

Uncovered brick without plaster in old tenement houses has its own unique charm. However, what if we want to achieve a similar effect in an apartment bought from a developer? There are many solutions on the market that imitate real brick. Brick on the wall is a very fashionable and at the same time a permanent decorative element of the interior in recent years. It enjoys unflagging popularity due to the wide range of patterns and colors in its offer. - In many houses on the walls we can see white brick, red, dilapidated brick imitating old walls of tenement houses, or gray brick with even shapes. Despite the fact that there are many ideas for arranging a wall with bricks, it must be admitted that it has recently been a fairly well-known way to decorate an apartment, says Żaklina Woźniak from the Metrohouse real estate agency.

White kitchen

White is and will always be fashionable. Despite the fact that in many houses the owners decide on a white kitchen, each of them arranges it differently and enriches it with various accessories, so it is difficult to say about two identical rooms. Some people think that white is already out of fashion, but it is enough to invest in accessories in a different color and this thought will be forgotten. However, white reigns in every second newly decorated house. The color is considered neutral, so walls are often painted in this way in apartments for the rental market. If you don't want your kitchen to look like your neighbors', choose a different color.

The inscriptions on the walls - the so-called typography

More and more often in houses we can see inscriptions on the walls and in various other places, e.g. on the stairs. Typography is, on the one hand, an original arrangement accessory, because we can personalize the text - hang the child's name above the cot or a favorite quote above the bed in the bedroom. However, when the new owner of the apartment wants to be original, he must remember not to overdo it with this type of additions. Although a few years ago such elements of decor were rare, and even aroused surprise and interest, today they are a very common element in many Polish homes.

Glamor style - one of the hottest trends of the last seasons

Glamor, i.e. charm, attractiveness, prestige. This has been one of the most popular trends in interior design for several years. For some, it is the equivalent of kitsch and glamor, while for others it is associated with extravagance and chic. How to recognize this style in current trends? These are transparent chairs stylized to resemble furniture shown in Hollywood cinema of the 1940s and 1950s, or Victorian furniture. The determinants of this style, which can be found in many houses, are also crystal chandeliers and dishes, large mirrors, elegantly framed photos and paintings, decorative wallpapers. – All this is associated with luxury, with a style that not everyone can afford. However, nowadays it is a way to arrange every wallet, which is why it is so often found in many homes , says Żaklina Woźniak from Metrohouse. It is worth noting that although the glamor style is more suited to the decor of houses, it can also be found in small apartments of popular blocks of flats.

Collage of photos and images

When watching American movies, family photos on the walls in the living room always caught the eye. For some time this fashion has also come to Polish homes. We will no longer see on the walls, as in the past, three frames in the same color with the same dimensions. Now the walls are dominated by frames in various shapes, colors and sizes. The more types of frames, the more "posh" our wall is. Unfortunately, this arrangement of the walls has nothing to do with the original. Although, of course, the way of such arrangement of space has a sentimental background, because who would not like to have exposed photos of their loved ones nearby, it should be remembered that many apartment owners come up with a similar idea.
