Feng Shui – relationship
Space organizing and living-space analysis based on Feng Shui become more accepted in Hungary also. A wider range of people make sure that well used principles and helping accessories are working anywhere – independently of culture, country, or faith.
Relationship is one of the areas which mostly desired to equilibrate, to improve or even to create. In our home, bedroom is the primary area of this, unsurprisingly. This space represents both sexes, even if only one person lives there. It embodies love and sex in the relationship (marks of Venus and Mars), the changes are made here will have an effect on these. In the case of ladies, the other similar space is the bathroom which affects on femininity and ego. These frequently have close relation…
Usually these aims have to be reached (without limitation) in a relationship:
– long-term relationship instead of short intrigues
– attracting a „different” person from the former partners
– reconversion of the present relationship’s harmony
– reviving/increasing sexuality
All this kind of analysis should begin with understanding the present situation and the mapping of the given space. During this, many things may occur which were not even recognized by the person who desires the changes. Detailed conversation and question-and-answer can help to punctually draw up the required changes and the tools to reach them with. There are common rules (e.g. objects placed in pairs), scientifically proven facts (e.g. physiological effects of colors) and principles also to which we must adjust. BUT! All cases are different since everybody is an individual personality with own life situation and the properties may be widely different too. This is why an analysis like this is totally personalized.
Keeping the balance is important since the bedroom is also the place of the night recovering beside this. Many times, alterations that look very small – removing or even purchasing an object – can result a significant change. The things mentioned above are adaptable in the case of the property is not our own or just one room is fully possessed.
Everybody is the master of his/her destiny, so changes can be achieved by oneself. Feng Shui provides the toolbar, an interior designer who has massive bases in the area, provides a helping hand for this.

Flower patterns
Flower and plant patterns have always played an important role in interior design. In the case of country properties, they showed the outside nature in inner rooms, in urban surroundings they made up for nature. There are almost endless ranges of wallpapers and fabrics in this topic, but there are some which are „evergreen”.
Rose symbolizes romance, femininity and country elegance. It can be found in almost every scale depending on style, from tiny patterns to wall-posters. These not necessarily follow the colors of the real flowers but it is not disturbing at all. We can find a proper accessory even for modern style as black-and-white and stylized (e.g. Macintosh rose) patterns.
The patterns, which depict only green or predominantly green plants are features of country styles, but they look good even in a children’s room. Ferns, topiaries, vegetables and ivy are good examples for this. Jungle pattern is in fashion for 2-3 years, it is used almost in every rooms. The scale of the pattern is mostly big. Green (depending on the hue) is a calming color and suggests close-to-nature. These can be found in „colorless” varieties also which provides wider scale of usage.
Lavender has unbroken popularity as epitome of Provence style. The color is given here: hues of lavender (purple). The scale of the pattern is small or middle. The country effect is evident.
Among fruit patterns there are more which may provide a more playful effect. They were frequently used by pop art, retro and disco styles. Of course, the totally classic variations are just as exciting, think about pomegranate and strawberry patterns of William Morris, for example.
Naturally, there are many other plants among patterns beside the mentioned above (e.g. tulip, leaves, poppy, dandelion and hydrangea). The biggest factories produce same collections of wallpapers and fabrics for harmonizing the furnishing of a room both in color and pattern.

Emerald green
Emerald green is a strong, cool (with a tint of blue), dark hue of green which shows the precious stone’s luxury. This was the color of the year in 2013.
Glamour
Glamour style is very fashionable since a couple of years. It is a feminine trend which has classic style marks also.
Basic colors are neutral: black, white, beige and grey. Light reflecting surfaces break the monotony of them. Glimmer is reached by using metallic (golden, silver, rose gold, chrome), glass/crystal/mirror and high gloss surfaces. This can be involved into the interior with lamps, small furniture, picture frames, mirrors etc.
Stacking of fabrics and creating luxurious softness are typical. Characteristics of the Baroque, the Classicism and the Rococo are recognizable, but the furniture bring back the classic lines and decorations in a simple way (e.g. cabriole leg, buttoned back, drawer pulls). Seats are fully upholstered, just like the bed. The total effect is elegant but inviting. The amount of cushions on the sofa, in the armchairs and on the bed suggests the biggest comfort. Velvet, fur and satin-like fabrics are perfect to this style.
Design is accented beside the functionality in the lighting. Chandeliers are placed even in the smallest rooms. Glass pendants reflect light. Lamp shades made of light transmittance fabric can be used for the more mysterious and subdued effect. Candles have important role because the romantic overtone is connected to the style.
Neutral base can be broken with some dashes of colors. Then the subdued but not obviously pastel colors appear, first of all blues, purples and pinks. Although the used colors can be warm hues only but the whole effect is marked by some kind of coolness, maybe just because of the quantity of glimmer.
The modern twist is represented mostly by artworks. Pictures on the wall, statues and other decoration objects are commonly contemporary pieces. Their colors and glamour integrate them to the interior.
The place can be popped up with a few but determining patterns, if it shouldn’t be reached (only) with colors. Damask pattern, the eternal classic, provides a good result here also. Geometric patterns fit for glamour style too (e.g. chevron, trellis, orderly stripes).
Since the style has a lot of modernized classic marks, therefore original antique pieces are not fit in these surroundings. They are not mixed with shiny-glimmering brand-new elegance but rival with them which cause an embarrassing outcome.
