BEAUTY home not only determined by its exterior. Interior could describe the character of the owner. Of the many elements of home charger, furniture most often be the center of attention.
Furniture is a furniture that usually fill a room. Furniture can be shaped chairs, sofas, desks, beds, cabinets, bookshelves, and many more. Furniture forms were diverse, ranging up to the standard square-shaped and asymmetrical or have carved. Furniture is also present in various sizes, some big some are small. According to interior designer Hani Widjaja, determine big or small furniture would be placed in a room is very important and should not be forgotten.
“Many people think too much about the form and model of furniture, to forget that the size of the furniture can also affect the aesthetic presence of furniture in the room. Let’s just say you bought a beautiful cabinets with detailed carvings typical of Jepara, which probably cost quite expensive because it is made from best quality wood. However, you did not take into account the size of the cabinet to the size of the room in your home that may be too tight for these cabinets. Eventually turn into beautiful cupboard cupboard overcrowd, “said Hani.
Furniture can also be a focal point of a room, no matter if the furniture is super-sized or very small. Provided you are cautious and know how to choose the right furniture, your business would beautify the room will not be in vain. If you aim to make the furniture as a focal point of a particular room, the first step to do is determine what kind of furniture that would be focal points.
“Once again, remember, you do not dwell with their large size. Big is not necessarily good. The little one is also not necessarily bad. Sometimes if there are two contrasting size furniture in a room, not necessarily that big a glance. Could be a little more unique and beautiful, so much attention, “added Hani.
When you decide to buy a set of beautiful sofas, consider first the size of your guest room. Then, note also forms a corner or wall. Does your guest room standard rectangular or square? Or even have a split level, be it the floor or wall?
“Because of the room can also affect the selection of the sofa. If your room is not square-shaped and has a wall that is divided, a large sofa-shaped straight and stiff is less fit to be put in there. In addition you make it harder, make straight form the living room so the view is less attractive. In fact, right at the beginning you design the split-level objective that so much unique guest rooms.
Sofa that fits just put straight in the side walls of the wide and straight, “Ashrafi again. This small sofa can also beautify your room. Look for smooth and oval shaped. Not having rigid corners. However, make sure the sofa or chair a tiny room just put in the living room which is also tiny. If your guest room or even a wide area counted once, put the little couch in there would be a step in the wrong.
Normally guest sofa or chair is used as a focal point in the living room. If you are put in the living room settee, the results will impress even the empty room. Impressed empty space could damage the concept of focal points that you have applied, because the furniture which had been regarded as a thief wants attention instead to less visible due to people’s attention is too focused on the emptiness of space.
