If someone hires an interior designer, one thing is sure: what should be the feeling entering the new flat. One is not certain in colors or furniture, just seen something somewhere which he liked. The feeling took him or her.
To express and understand this, making montages is important in interior design. But why we cannot do this ourselves? There are two ways to begin:
1. There are a lot of objects in our mind, that we would like to realize in the ready space (e.g.: fabrics, paint samples, photos of furnitures or lamps). We like one because of the color, other of the shape, a third one of the pattern. Or we just want that one or a similar. These can be attached on a A3 format cardboard sheet. We can arrange them and check how they will look like together. We can get a view of “all of things” getting in one space.
2. We would like to catch a certain style or feeling. In this case we haven’t got to use real accessories or materials. Everything is suitable that has adequate atmosphere. We can collect picture on Internet or we can cut them from newspapers. They can display a complete interior, or just one bouquet, teddy bear, book cover, etc. The goal is the MOOD.
Let’s start bravely with whatever variant. Its great fun and in addition to, a perfect tool for getting further ideas and organizing the lots of “I like this” things.
