What is ekostil?
The twentieth century gave us technology.But in my opinion, we played a little in this game and stopped noticing nature. Suppressed, strangled, she again spoke to us and began to break out. Because she is health, cleanliness, joy, freshness, true pleasure. Is it possible to refuse this ?! Man again turned his gaze to nature, felt like a part of it and wanted to immerse himself in it. The transition to eco-style is a step into the future! This is a new value system. Eco is a style of unique beauty and luxury of nature, innovations created by man and conveyed by the language of art. This style is characterized by authenticity and non-standard forms. For me, it is also a space corresponding to the energies of a person. 
In accordance with nature

Choose a color
For such a space, it is most suitablecolors in "natural" tones. Calm colors dominate here, setting you up for relaxation. These are enveloping pastel shades, deep browns, delicate beiges, playing in contrast with black, white or woody colors. As accents that prevent the monotony of the interior, there are shades characteristic of nature - heavenly blue, pale green, wheat yellow, delicate lavender, sand, ash gray. 
Naturalness in everything!
Sustainable design concept assumesthe use of durable materials, which is more profitable, in addition, products made from these materials do not need to be constantly replaced and recycled. They are natural, natural, wear-resistant, sometimes rare. Rarity can manifest itself in an unusual pattern, color, shape. As materials - stone, minerals, wood, bark, leaves and reeds, metal, clay. They are innovative, bringing eco-function to the interior. For example, wallpaper and plasters that purify the air and protect the home from harmful magnetic radiation. 
Stop! Do not do this!
No chipboard, fiberboard, plastic, polymers,Chromed metal, synthetic inserts in furniture and decor. Furniture in ekostila does not need a ruche, decorating with carving, an abundance of colors: simple shapes and straight lines - naturalness in everything.
