- This is a very difficult question, because there ismany different styles, from classical to modern. And the combination of these directions is beauty, which makes it possible to discover unique perspectives. In my opinion, this creates an individuality. - Is it possible to meet in the houses of young British textile, carpets, pillows, various draperies, floral patterns and vegetable prints? Or is it all inherent in the older generation?- Personally it seems to me that this can be excellentoption as decorative items. In addition, these things add personality, and no matter how old you are. In the end, these are just details that make the original very ordinary interior unique. The way they are used, of course, varies with time, but the fundamentals remain unchanged. With the help of such elements you can create a completely modern style.

How to use the color palette?- It is actually very difficult to combine a lotnumber of colors and patterns. Therefore, I would recommend choosing 3-4 main shades, with one of them acting as the main one. And then you can work in this color palette. For example, white and neutral shades are really very important: they are fundamental in almost any style. They add lightness, graphicness, spaciousness and relevance to the interior. - Do you agree that each color means something and it is necessary to use them very carefully when decorating a house?"It seems to me that from the moment you findbalance between the chosen palette or color, simple elements and neutral shades, the overall perception will look harmonious. For example, I can not imagine my life without bright colors, especially without green color. I like to use it as the main one - so you can transfer the entire natural palette. And the emerald green shade is so deep and full of life that makes any room unique.

It is here that information is exchanged, so I recommend using neutral shades and ornaments to perfectly match the rest of the space, made in bright colors. As the primary color, many choose white, but why not consider the option of using a gray, chocolate shade or even a mixture of blue and green. For example, I often choose the blue color, because on its background other bright colors look more advantageous. I like to create character in those rooms where I spend more time: a bedroom, a living room, a kitchen. Here I attach special importance to fabrics, beautiful ceramics, accessories, carpets, etc.
