If we talk about associations that arise about summer, then it is primarily the sun, bright colors, an abundance of greenery, sea, sand. Unhurried walks, rest, trips to nature.
How can these feelings be brought into the interior? The designer told Zhenya Postukhova.
6. Cleaning first!
Give up things that you haven't used for a long time. Believe me, if the item has been in your closet for several years, most likely it will no longer be useful to you.
Open up to something new! And something new always needs a place. I also recommend giving up things in the house that make you feel negative. This could be a cabinet with a squeaky door that annoys you. Or old dishes that have lost their original appearance, rubbed or chipped. And after the first step, you can start transforming the interior.
5. Refresh textiles
This is what is easiest to do and what can radically change the mood in the interior. Summer mood will help to create light bedding with a bright print. Vegetable themes, flowers, palms are ideal.
Buy some decorative pillows and decorate your sofa and bed with them. Curtains can be exchanged for lightweight tulle made from natural materials such as linen. With the window open, it will be very romantic to flow from the wind.
4. Find natural decor
Decor made from natural materials will add coziness and give a feeling of closeness to nature. It is very important for those who did not manage to go on vacation this summer. A wood coffee table or a large wooden decor plate is perfect for this.
Or find something in your home that reminds you of your vacation. For example, I hung up a shell chandelier that I brought from Cyprus. And she replaced the soap dish in the bathroom with a large shell. And every time I look at these objects and remember a very pleasant time.
3. Turn your balcony into a summer veranda
If you have a balcony, you can make a summer veranda out of it. Place wicker furniture, plant seedlings, or place plants in clay pots.
For those who are not afraid of global changes, I propose to upholster the balcony with clapboard and paint it in colors pleasant to you - lavender, mint, heavenly or the color of the sun - yellow.
2. Change dishes
Dishes are an integral part of our day. And it is very important that the table setting pleases you. Therefore, to create a summer mood, I suggest updating the dishes.
Plates and dishes in the form of leaves or lemon will add great mood. Plus a ceramic vase with seasonal flowers - and you are guaranteed a good mood!
1. Fill your home with scent
Another not obvious, but giving the atmosphere an option for updating the interior is fragrances for the home. Place a diffuser, aroma lamp, sachet or aroma candles at home and create the mood of your interior according to your mood.
Citrus compositions, herbal and floral aromas are ideal for summer. Take a closer look at the complex smells that unfold over time.
