Decor as a Way to Form a Style in a Modern Interior

Abstract

This article discusses the problem of understanding decor and decorativeness in modern architecture and interior design. Except the traditional representation of decor as decoration, and an additional, unimportant part of the external and internal space of buildings, there is a broader and more complex concept of decor as the entire non-constructive part of a building. It has been established that in modern interiors the decor at the level of four main indicators is actively manifested. This construction / shape, material of manufacture / decoration, technique / technology of creation, lighting. Each of these indicators has unique characteristics. For example, the constructions have proportionality, streamlining, geometrization, symmetry, asymmetry. The material has texture, texture, color, etc. Let’s pay attention to the fact that the decor, if you look at it widely, it is directly related to the category of style. It seems that decor in interior design is a kind of way of materializing style. It is a tool that makes aesthetic representations of beauty and harmony real. It has been established that decorativeness is different. The decor is a system of elements that are united by a single artistic idea. The style orientation depends from changes in decorative elements in interior design. The free use of various style elements in modern interiors allows expressing the creative approach of the designer and the tastes of the customer. Style elements also open wide possibilities for choosing the design of the space, i.e. its decoration in a broad term. Thus, decor can be considered as one of the keyways of shaping style in a modern interior. The proposed concept allows you to expand your understanding of decor in art.
