Types of styles are very diverse. Some were trending several centuries ago, others were born recently and immediately gained popularity. Styles relate to interior design, clothing, design, and even art. The most popular of them should be paid a little attention.
High tech
Perhaps, if we talk about modern types of styles, then this one should be noted with attention first of all. High tech originated in 1970. And this style concerns architecture and design.
High-tech apartments look very elegant and respectable. The above photo shows one example. The style is characterized by the use of calm tones - black, white, gray, coffee, wood or pastel. Unobtrusive bright accents are allowed - for example, red pillows on the sofa or neon blue lights.
The material used is metal, glass, plastic and sometimes wood. Special requirements apply to furniture. It should have a strict geometric shape and be functional. A glass transparent table, a sofa made of leather substitute, armchairs made of plain fabric, a narrow extended wardrobe are just a few examples.
The walls, by the way, should be light. Sand shade suitable or light gray. By the way, patterns are not allowed. Smooth, exposed walls are another highlight of hi-tech. The floor is tiled, over which a light carpet is usually laid. And another feature - tall and large windows with shutters.
What about jewelry? This fashionable style involves decorating the interior with all sorts of modern figurines, copyright photographs on the walls, original lamps (lava, for example), a high-tech fireplace or an aquarium.
Empire style in the interior
This is also a pretty trendy style. Only now it is the exact opposite of high-tech. Empire style is designed to demonstrate power, superiority, status and unlimited possibilities of a person. By the way, he appeared in the era of Napoleon's reign.
This style in the interior is characterized by grandeur and a large area of the room. It is important to use a centric composition. And the middle of the ceiling and floor are usually emphasized with a pattern. The main decorations are objects of antiquity and military glory. And, of course, large mirrors designed to reflect the magnificence of the environment. Pretentiousness, carved surfaces, an abundance of gold, bronze candlesticks - if you can, then you should not be afraid to bring it into the interior.
In clothes
It is interesting that the empire style was also reflected in clothes. Ladies in those days wore dresses with a high waist (to the chest) and skirts, in which cylindrical outlines were clearly traced. In the 21st century, of course, outfits in this style look different.
Dress length may vary. There are extremely short outfits. There are also long skirts on the floor. The invariable elements of style are the high waist, which is emphasized either by a thin belt tied directly under the chest, or by the corresponding color scheme; as well as the shape of the skirt.
It is interesting that such a dress is suitable for almost any girl. The short lady seems slimmer in this outfit. Small breasts visually become larger. A free cut successfully hides flaws and emphasizes the dignity of the figure.
Oriental style in clothes
He is mainly liked by girls who adore bright multi-colored outfits with an abundance of patterns and decorations. Because this is what characterizes the oriental style.
In it, if we talk about clothes, the elements of the outfits of Japan, Thailand, India, China and the Arab countries are combined. All together forms an interesting symbiosis.
Moreover, the outfit does not have to be closed to the floor. Now very fashionable are short, knee-length dresses made of light flowing fabric with some ethnic ornament. You can successfully complete the image by putting on your hand the so-called slave - jewelry, consisting of a bracelet that is connected to the ring. A silk scarf with patterns is also suitable.
If you want to bring more Asian in your Oriental look, you can wear a loose dress made of chiffon or satin with a straight cut and side cut. They are usually made with patterns of sakura, lotus, camellia and images of dragons.
The most important thing is shoes. She should not have a heel. All types of styles have their own “zest”, and here in this case it lies precisely in this. Open sandals, beaded ballet flats, sandals on a wooden sole or ballet flats are suitable.
Scandinavian motives
Once again, you should turn to such a topic as the types of styles in the interior, and talk about Scandinavian. Surprisingly aesthetic, simple, attractive, in its own way distinctive and practical. A bit like high-tech, only brighter. You can verify this by looking at the above photo.
The main "highlight" is the abundance of natural light. If the room does not have large and tall windows, this is not a Scandinavian style.
If the furniture is wooden. Facing? Of stone or ceramic. Decorative drapery? Only linen and cotton. Nothing artificial.
And open-plan helps to maintain a sense of spaciousness. Therefore, in a Scandinavian style, studio apartments are often decorated.
But the most important feature is that it is such an interior that is designed to reflect a person’s personal idea of beauty and comfort. Therefore, do not be shy in terms of decor and decoration. Personal vision only add to the atmosphere of originality.
Minimalistic design
No other types of styles have the philosophy that is inherent in minimalism. Firstly, not everyone decides to furnish their apartment in this way. Secondly, this requires a special taste and vision. Thirdly, minimalism is not just a style. A way of life. People who have furnished their homes "at a minimum" and dress in the same style. Because they do not accept too much.
Minimalism is often confused with high-tech style. It is distinguished by monolithic forms, restrained shades, solid surfaces, simple but natural materials (this is the difference), maximum space and functional furniture (usually they use built-in). And also hidden light sources and lack of decor. With all this, the apartment does not look uncomfortable. But here's exactly what you can say - it reflects freedom. Below is a photo, looking at which you can see this.
In the image of a man
Some types of styles in the interior are reflected in clothing. Minimalism, as already mentioned, is no exception. What guides a person who adheres to this style? Simple principle. Consisting of the rejection of quantity in favor of quality. The "highlight" of the style is a thoughtful silhouette and cut. And undoubtedly the high quality of clothes and shoes.
Minimalism is characterized by monochrome coloring and restrained shades. Accessories are as discreet and functional as possible - sunglasses without pretentiousness, a convenient frame bag, and a belt, if needed.
Traditional minimalist girls wear sheath dresses, pencil skirts, business dress suits, turtlenecks, straight-cut jeans, coats, raincoats or fitted jackets. In terms of choosing shoes, the principle is simple - it should be high-quality and solid.
Art
And again minimalism. It not only belongs to the category of “basic styles”, but is also universal. Minimalism arose in the late 60s of the last century in New York as a movement in art, sculpture and music. Its main feature is an objective approach and simplicity of form.
Painting in this style is unique in its own way. Minimalists abandoned the techniques characteristic of other areas. And so it was possible to focus on color expressiveness and geometry. The paintings are simple and not overloaded with meaning. The whole point is in front of the viewer in full view.
Even in music it is easy to find out that the work was written by a minimalist composer, if you know about the features of the style. The basis of such compositions are certain sounds, motifs, chords, or even intervals. They are called patterns. And the composition is built on their variation. For example, in a change in pitch.
Art deco
Talking about the types of styles in design, one cannot fail to note the French art-déco trend as well. It arose a little less than 100 years ago and found itself not only in interiors, but also in fashion and painting.
This is an amazing symbiosis of everything that would seem to be incompatible. In the interior you can see round, square and seemingly “curled” shapes. The refined, luxurious crystal chandelier unexpectedly successfully combines with neon lights or spotlights. Incredibly high ceilings and amazing spaciousness harmonize with the marble flooring and open floor plan. And the interior, decorated in black with windows of the form of Gothic arches, may well be furnished with bright green furniture. However, this is art-déco -decorative art. So there is nothing to be surprised at.
Animalism
It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t like animals. Animalism is now a fairly popular style in clothes. Types of styles have their own characteristics, and here is his "highlight" - these are animal motifs, which you can easily guess.
This may be the decoration of clothes under a leopard or zebra pattern. Shirt with snake skin effect, matching bag. Recently, animals depicting animals are extremely popular among young people. Birds (especially owls) also gained fame. There are many accessories in the form of them - pendants, earrings, bags.
In painting and photo art, this genre is also popular. And in the interior - here the principle is the same as in clothes. Animalism is natural - with the image of animals as they are. But it’s humorous, positive. Such an example is provided a little higher.
