Decoration – Design by: Bithina Soliman
The classic or traditional style relies on old and modern designs, so its trend never fades away; it has a long history and is suitable for most homes with large spaces and high ceilings so that they can accommodate large pieces of furniture. The colors in most of its designs rely on dark colors such as dark brown, as well as brown shades for wood such as brown, chocolate, and charcoal, all the way up to black.
Classic furniture and ceilings
The fabric used in this type of style features shapes of flowers, elegant patterns, and drawings, and metals such as copper and bronze are used, which are the most common metals in classic furniture.
Classical ceilings usually come in more than one level and are decorated with ornate chandeliers; it is also possible to choose engravings for the ceiling itself or geometric patterns adorned with gold, in addition to the need to use classic chandeliers for lighting, and to use spotlights; however, a large, unified main light is indispensable, unlike in the modern style.
Modern style decor:
The production of modern or contemporary furniture began after the nineteenth century, and this type of decoration tends to help homeowners make the most of their space, no matter how small it is.
Simplicity is the essence of this style; the colors used in modern furniture are often either dark or soft and bright like pastel colors, in addition to the use of soft wood, metal, and glass; these characteristics make the furniture easy to care for and clean and make it fit well with small spaces.
In classic style, you will most likely find walls decorated with panelling and stucco ornamentation as well; you can also choose wallpaper with classic patterns and velvet paints with different effects.
The ceiling in the modern or modernistic style is characterized by simplicity, and it usually comes in one or two levels at most, to allow us to add a light box to the ceiling and distribute the spotlights in an organized and invisible way.
The walls in the modern or modernistic style usually come plain, and the designer relies on paints and wallpaper, and sometimes on decorative elements made from chipboard.
