Interesting prints on textiles, bright wallpapers and compositions on the wall - find out how the English style has changed in modern apartments and houses.
1 Print on Textile
Of course, in England, as well as in most European countries, modern interiors with an emphasis shifted from the decor on functionality are mainly distributed. Therefore, it is not necessary to wait for each door atmosphere of the Sherlock Holmes apartment. But still, the English style has not stayed in the past and evolved to meet modern requests.
The brightest preserved manifestation of the classic English style is bright prints on textiles. It can be geometric patterns in a restrained color scheme from a later and strict period, plants or birds of saturated colors - from the earlier. You will find interesting patterns at once on everything: on the upholstery of flooring, sofa pillows, curtains and plaids. In order for them to combine, one shade is selected, which will be repeated on all subjects.

The second large love of the British is bright beautiful wallpapers with a complex and detailed pattern. Paper or, if possible, fabric. They decorate the accent wall behind the headboard in the bedroom, echoes the color with the rest of the decor in the room, make more interesting the corridor or create an atmosphere of the living room. The most popular print - vegetable, it is the echo of the old English interior, the geometric occurs a little less often.
3 recognizable furniture
If we consider furniture in modern English apartments made in the national style, you can see three important points.
- Upholstered furniture is always large, bright and very comfortable, takes the main place in the room.
- Many recognizable English items: chairs, cabinets, dressers and tables from wood, decorated, with thin elegant lines.
- Vintage is very valued. In a modern apartment with a thoughtful interior, there is surely something shabby, the last century, the subject of the special pride of the owners.
4 Symmetry
The most popular reception of the placement of furniture and accessories is still observance of symmetry. It can subordinate to itself all the space, especially if there is some important element in the room, which I want to emphasize, for example, a fireplace or picture. But in small apartments it is easier to meet the symmetric arrangement of accessories on the chest of drawers or a scheme for hanging paintings on the wall.
5 compositions on the wall
Compositions from posters, photographs and paintings on the wall are not uncommon for the same Scandinavian direction, but it is in England that this designer reception is particularly popular and peculiar. The paintings can be wanted the whole wall, and very tight. It will not embarrass anyone if the paintings are in noticeable massive frames, and even on the background of bright wallpapers with a contrast pattern. Such compositions are suitable for any room: from living room and bedrooms to bathroom and corridor.
6 fireplace
The fireplace is still a very important element of the interior. Even if it is an apartment and chimney in it, the fireplace should be, al and artificial. And on the fireplace shelf, in the best English traditions, the accessories arrange. And this is not an element of some expensive and luxurious huge apartments. In the photo with a pistachio interior, the space is furnished very concise and kept, the color scheme is calm and unusually bright, but the dark fireplace at the most noticeable place asks the English atmosphere.
