The atmosphere in any home depends entirely oncompetently selected interior design. And this statement is especially true when it comes to one of the main rooms of the home. It is not difficult to create a hall design in the house with your own hands. But what it will be - convenient and comfortable or, on the contrary, uncomfortable and repulsive with a chaotic selection of decorative elements, this is another question. If you decide to change the house, then the recommendations below will greatly help in this.
The interior of the hall should be done in harmoniousflowers, the furniture should not clutter the room. Since the household members will spend a considerable part of their time in this room, gathering with the family, receiving guests, the interior of the hall in the house should be thought out to the smallest detail. Our apartments do not shine with large areas, this means that some of the family members have to sleep in the common room. When designing the interior of the hall, you should not forget about this (Fig. 1).
Figure 1.When choosing furniture for the living room, the main condition is comfort, and it does not matter whether it is fabric or leather. The sofa in this case should be a transformer and easily serve as a full-fledged sleeping place. And it is even better if it can accommodate an orthopedic mattress. The rest of the furniture should be selected taking into account the habits of all family members. In other words, you need to think about such things:
- whether the workplace will be located in the hall of the house;
- whether there is a tradition in the family to gather crowded feasts on weekdays and on holidays (if so, you should think about having a large sliding table);
- Is it permissible to place a capacious wardrobe under the clothes here?
- whether there is a solid library in the house, for which you need to find a secluded place with protection from direct light and dust.
Choose a style in the interior of the hall
Choosing a style solution for designliving room on your own, you should be guided by the preferences of your household, and then look back at fashion trends and tendencies. If you decide to follow only fashion, then be prepared to change the design of the hall every year. The classic style is just the golden mean that will help you cope with the situation. Since the classics are not subject to strong changes and are relevant at all times, you will not have to change the design of the hall for at least several years (Fig. 2). Return to contents</a>
We choose finishing materials in the interior of the hall
Floor covering.
Figure 2.The classic style in the interior of the hall is relevant at all times, so it will always look modern and beautiful. If you are looking for the ideal floor covering, then until recently it was carpet or rug. If you decide in their favor, then even in winter you can walk on the floor barefoot. In addition to this, the fluffiness of the carpet or rug will visually give the design of the hall warmth and comfort. It is advisable to place the covering either along the entire perimeter of the floor or in its central zone. But carpet is already becoming a thing of the past, since fashion, as noted above, is fickle. Difficulty in maintenance and accumulation of static electricity, the possibility of an allergic reaction - all this makes you get rid of this material. The variety of decorative options and affordability have deservedly given laminate the palm in home repairs. Laminated flooring provides the interior of the hall with style. When starting the installation of the laminate, you should provide for the presence of the so-called underlay. Its presence is explained by the need for a level base for laying the main covering. If finances allow, it is better to put cork or natural wood underneath. Decorating the ceiling area.

Especially if the repair is done on your own and without the necessary skills. It is possible that careful alignment of the ceiling with subsequent painting will cost a little less. But what can compare with the beauty of a suspended ceiling structure? Especially now, when such an invention of builders began to be supplied with LEDs that create diffused lighting or the effect of a starry sky. The combination of a plasterboard structure with built-in lamps will give any room the most unusual look. The picture above your head looks especially impressive. Wall decoration.

Choice of furniture options
When choosing furniture, it is important to be guided bynot only on its attractiveness, but also to take into account functionality. The latter is very relevant for living rooms that are not distinguished by a large number of square meters (Fig. 3).
To save space, the TV can beplace on the wall. Most often, a set of upholstered furniture is used (a sofa with armchairs). It is diluted with a coffee table, a home theater and a music center. For ceremonies, a table should be placed in the hall. It should be compact or collapsible. Upholstered furniture is placed in the recreation area, and equipment is placed opposite (a panel from a movie theater or a TV). Until a certain point, it was considered popular to install a furniture wall in the hall, the functionality of which was highly questionable. But it accumulated dust well, which had to be washed regularly. Today, such bulky structures have been replaced by light shelves that can accommodate many accessories, framed photographs, books, albums and discs. When choosing a sofa, it is important to ensure that everyone living in the house has seating space on it. Transformer furniture copes well with this task, which, if necessary, will accommodate additional people. Return to the table of contents</a>
Color design
Many people already know how this or that can influencecolor on human perception and psyche. We will not repeat ourselves. We will only warn against excessive use of red. This color is very active and in the subconscious is associated with danger, so it can cause a feeling of anxiety. You should not overload the interior of the hall with various objects in red. Bright colors encourage an active life. But the living room is not a gym, so the choice of colors should be more reasonable, you should stop at calm shades. Accessories should match the overall color scheme in the hall and its stylistic direction. You should also pay attention to the choice of curtains for the hall. You can choose absolutely any model of curtains, as long as it matches the style of the room. The only type of curtains that will be inappropriate in the hall is, of course, blinds. Such curtains on the windows will evoke associations of the room with an office. Above, we discussed what can be used to transform the main room of the house. Decide which of this can be used in relation to your situation.
