The very case when the situation is playing in thethe development of the plot is no less important than the heroes themselves. Not for nothing that the directors for the creation of the scenery attracted famous artists and decorators. If you do not want to lay out the space amount for the interior design, the console is in your hands. In the films that Woman's Day chose, there are ideas that should be adopted.
"Alone at home"
"Home Alone" is simply a treasure trove for those who alreadyis now starting to rack your brain over the New Year's decoration of your home. Even if you are the owner of a modest two-room apartment in a panel house rather than a three-story Georgian mansion, it is worth taking note of a couple of ideas. After all, the interiors in the film were worked on by set designers Eve Coley and Daniel B. Clancy. To create a festive mood in the "McAllister house", they relied on a combination of bright red and juicy green and hit the nail on the head. A red teapot on a countertop made of dark green glossy tiles in the kitchen, a red bedspread on the bed in the parents' bedroom, a countertop "under malachite" in the bathroom. And also scarves, pillows, potholders, bottles, rugs, wallpaper with a damask pattern. Of course, also red and green. Here, even without a Christmas tree in the hall and a wreath on the front door, you involuntarily begin to hum "Jingle Bells".

Here, the English style is evident in everything: a spacious hall, a grand staircase with a wall console, a living room with a large fireplace and a large armchair in front of it, light interior doors, carpets and rugs on the floor. By the way, the filming took place in a real house - it is located in the small fashionable village of Winnetka, 16 km from Chicago. The owners John and Cynthia Abendschein provided the film crew with a kitchen, a main hall and several rooms on the first floor, and they themselves moved to live on the upper floors.
"Best offer"
The main character of the film is an auctioneer andcollector Virgil Oldman lives as a recluse. And that's why his home is decorated to match him: black and white tones, clear lines, minimalism, modern furniture, natural materials in the finishing. No crocheted napkins, no curtains made of fabric "in a cheerful flower", not even a dining table in the kitchen - his hero is replaced by a snow-white bar counter with a glossy surface! In the corners of the living room there are sculptures of ancient heroes.

Not a "girly" interior at all, but worth a closer look. For example, these Italian Visionnaire lamps made of Venetian glass and crystal - they make the heart beat faster. And what about the rack for gloves, neatly laid out on the shelves? I wish there was one like that, but also for scarves, handbags, belts and other accessories.
"The Great Gatsby"
Want to see luxury and glamour combined withexotic? Then the film by director Baz Luhrmann is just what the doctor ordered. The film won an Oscar for best sets and set the fashion for 1920s decor with its Art Deco style for several years. Incidentally, director Baz Luhrmann's wife, artist Catherine Martin, worked on the design.

And every time you find something new.
Marie Antoinette
If the ballroom in Gatsby's mansion was justreminds of Versailles, then in Sofia Coppola's costume drama you can see the real residence of the French kings. Luxury, luxury and once again luxury. Lots of gold, lots of crystal, lots of monograms. And how could it be otherwise, when we are talking about the endless celebration of life?

Of course, it is impossible to repeat this at home. But who is stopping you from imagining yourself as a princess, at least in your dreams?
