Interior design ideas

Various materials can be applied to the device of frame partitions: gypsum plaster sheets, fiberboard, particle board, etc. Frame partitions with gypsum plaster sheets are most widely applied; therefore we shall consider the given constructive type of partitions on the basis of this material.
The widest circulation has been received by gypsum plaster sheets of firm “KNAUF”, and also production of Finnish firm “GIPROC”.
Wide application of frame partitions from gypsum plaster sheets is connected, first of all, with simplicity of installation and fast terms of works???????? performance. One more factor, owing to which designers prefer to pawn frame partitions in projects, relies in surprising ability to morphogenesis of gypsum cardboard. From it, partitions with broken, curvilinear forms, to create interiors with flowing spaces, to include in an interior of a column, a pilaster, etc, have been made.
Gypsum plaster frame partition consists of a profile metal skeleton (a skeleton from wooden bar is used), sheathed with gypsum plaster sheets from both parties. The skeleton on perimeter fastens to building designs and it is a bearing part for gypsum plaster sheets. At presence of requirements to thermal, sound and fireproof isolation the cavity of a partition between gypsum plaster sheets is being filled up with isolating material from mineral fibers.

For the last years some changes in definition “lux” in interior and furniture design, which are not connected with a fashion, are being observed. The “lux” category is defined any more by cost and skill of manufacturers, but with other criteria which have been recognized secondary: reproduction of moral values, successes in research of materials, ecological compatibility and others. All these qualities are not evident, but they considerably raise value both each subject of furniture, and a uniform of interior design composition. Thus the important components of quality of elite furniture gain originality, novelty, beauty and, first of all, functionality.
It appears so that the furniture of “lux” class serves not only to image of the owner, but it also carries out functions of furniture in general - it provides coziness and comfort in the house. Today functionality of furniture means bilateral communication between the designer and the consumer. Designers do not chase extreme novelty of forms any more, and aspire to make stylish beautiful furniture as much as possible ergonomic. With this purpose new creative decisions are created and samples of classical design are staticized.
Do not hesitate of luxury. In fact furniture is not only for a body, but it is also a hobby.

Conceptually the furniture can be divided into two kinds: furniture for a life, and other furniture, “for eyes”- as a hobby.
Elite furniture - criteria of estimation
There is furniture of absolutely other grade. Furniture is a sign on taste and social status of the owner. Such furniture is not on sale in ordinary shops and it is not made at factories by million parties. It is called furniture of “luxury” class.
In opinion of the inhabitant for furnish of luxury furniture the original concept and use of natural materials - a tree, leather, natural fabrics, nonferrous metals are characteristic. And it is quite natural - transcendental cost of the goods is really “charming”.
The attitude to furniture is not always defined by a material status, and more likely world position. Those, who wish to transform a place of residing at the house into the dream, hardly will save on an interior.
Despite of current of time and development of the furniture industry (improvement of technologies and materials), and its further improvement (introduction on the furniture market of the new companies and countries) Italy remains the world leader on the market of elite furniture.
“Elite” - the luxury - has not always been the defining characteristic of the Italian furniture. But today the furniture of a class “luxury” differs not only, and not so much by price, but on many other qualities. Among other furniture markets researchers of the of the Italian furniture market features mark it????????s (paradoxically!) availability.???? In other words: the increasing numbers of people are capable to decorate the life with rather qualitative furniture. When we say “furniture”, we mean everything, including, lighting devices, accessories, textiles, table silver - all movable subjects of interior design.
