Ecostyle is one of the most demanded and lovedtoday by many designers and architects. What does eco-style mean for designers and how to use it in the interior - we will tell you in our review. The advantages of using natural materials and technologies have a positive effect on the most important thing we have - on health. In addition, the stormy life of megalopolises is increasingly forcing us to seek harmony with nature, if not outside the city, then at least in our own eco-interiors. We talk with designer Stanislav Orekhov about how they treat eco-interiors in Russia and abroad. Stanislav Orekhov, interior designer Vizualizator, head of his own studio, author of Russia's largest online design school. A regular participant in thematic exhibitions and conferences. Ecostyle is distinguished by the use of natural materials - wood, stone, fabrics and maximum integration of space with the environment. The laconicism of eco-interiors is one of the main principles of design projects.
Speaking about eco-ides in architecture, it is worth notingthe difference between Russian and Western approaches. In Europe, the main principle of eco-interiors is the maximum saving of resources, where great attention is paid to the technological component of the interior. Firstly, it concerns the use of reproducible and recycled materials such as cardboard, shavings, wood, glass. By the way, if you delve into the issues of certification of eco-interiors, the use of local materials, mined or produced near the construction site, also affects the status of the future eco-facility. Therefore, in their projects, designers can use original solutions made to order by Russian craftsmen - it will look more original and cost less than a custom-made position from abroad. Of course, all materials must have appropriate certificates, be safe and hypoallergenic.
Eco interiors for a European customerare equipped with energy efficient lighting, water flow controllers, kitchen dispensers and emergency water cut-off devices. These seemingly small things on an urban scale give impressive results. Thus, the European approach to environmental friendliness means saving and optimizing both resources in decoration and funds for repairs. Stanislav Orekhov, interior designer: - In Russia, the approach to environmental friendliness is different. Here, unity with nature is at the forefront, the desire to create an interior in the house where expensive, high-quality, natural materials are used as much as possible. Many people associate the concept of "eco-interior" with the terms "luxury", "prestige" and "quality". In our projects, we always give preference to the use of natural wood and stone in the interior. These materials are not only environmentally friendly, but also have excellent color and texture properties, on which the idea of the entire interior is based. Wood can be organically diluted with glossy furniture surfaces, decorative wall coverings or soft textile decor. For many customers of eco-projects, details are important, for example, elements of ethnic motives or natural fur.
Of course, the eco-terrier can be realized inEconomy. Here the designer needs not only to break his head over the search for available ecological materials, such as natural travertine, PVC coatings and plywood sheets, cleaned of formaldehyde, but also to show imagination. For example, wall materials made of pressed wood shavings or furniture from old pallets are absolutely fantastic.
As for planning decisions, the questionenvironmental friendliness here can be solved by combining spaces and using the maximum number of translucent structures as walls and partitions. A lot of light and air is one of the hallmarks of an eco-style interior. This is especially true in Russian weather conditions. Summing up, I would like to note that eco-style in the interior is a great opportunity to show the designer his creative potential. Decorative solutions based on old things, all kinds of alterations, hand-made, non-standard designs designed to optimize the space - all this makes the interior non-trivial, stylish and, most importantly, environmentally friendly.
