In this article, we will talk about the steps that every homeowner who plans to purchase furniture has to go through, what features of the choice you should pay attention to, as well as ways to plan the arrangement and modern gadgets that will become your assistants in this process.

At first glance, it seems that today it will not be difficult for any room in the house. In fact, the choice is so great that the main question is the financial possibilities of the owner of the house.

However, often even a very expensive sofa, which looked great in the store, suddenly turns out to be more than necessary at home, does not fit into the already designed interior style, and in general, this is not at all what we wanted! There is a problem with storage places at all - the owners, who did not think in advance how many drawers and shelves they need, are then forced to find the opportunity to additionally install a bedside table or hang a shelf.

That is why the choice of furniture is a very responsible task. Moreover, you get it for more than one year, you will live with it for a long time, and the price of the issue is far from a penny. We hope that our article will help you choose the right items for each room of your apartment or house.

Without furniture, it is impossible to imagine a single room of the house, whether it is a huge living room or a tiny kitchen. It is thanks to the right set that this bedroom has become so cozy and functional.

Functional tasks

Before you go to the store or place an order on the Internet, you should calmly think about what kind of furniture you need. You must answer the following questions for yourself:

1. What exactly will be in the bedroom, living room, etc. For example, will the wardrobe in the hallway be your main storage place, or is there not enough space and you have to put it in the bedroom? Where will the computer desk be located - in the bedroom or living room?
2. How many storage spaces do you need. Think about whether one closet is enough for the whole family or do you need a separate locker for children's clothes? If you have a large library, consider how many bookshelves you will need. There is a collection of dishes or souvenirs - you need a place for them.
3. Will the bedroom fit a double bed where the children will sleep, is there a need for a place for guests who can stay overnight?
4. Can the same piece of furniture perform several functions? So, a folding sofa will become a comfortable sleeping place, sliding and rising coffee table- a dining table, and a bed with drawers - a place for storage. Such options are especially relevant for small spaces.

Thinking about the amount of furniture needed, do not forget that the furniture must first of all perform certain functions and meet the needs of all family members. Ideally, if this is your first time furnishing your new apartment, you should make lists of the necessary pieces of furniture for each room.

In this bedroom, both the bed with a high headboard and the baroque nightstands have taken their places perfectly. The dimensions, shape and style of the furniture are impeccably matched.

We plan the arrangement

So, we have decided on the number of pieces of furniture and their functions. Now you have to decide where exactly all this will stand. At this stage of planning the arrangement of furniture, you can act in different ways:

1. Just walk around the room and imagine where it is better to put it. Be sure to “arm yourself” with a tape measure and measure every corner to determine the maximum size of a sofa, wardrobe or bed.
2. Draw the location of cabinets and shelves directly on the wall - it will turn out quite clearly. This method is ideal for arranging exactly vertical storage areas, for example, parts kitchen set or walls in the living room, although it will be possible to indicate the maximum height of the back of the sofa or head of the bed on the wall.
3. Draw a diagram of your room, maintaining the selected scale. Then draw pieces of furniture on the same scale, cut and rearrange on the diagram, choosing the optimal location of the kit.
4. Use modern computer programs. , designed for a computer, smartphone or tablet, will allow you to conveniently, quickly and very clearly imagine how the vending piece of furniture will look in your room. Such programs work simply - take a picture of your room, choose furniture from the presented catalog and arrange it in its place in your virtual interior. The resulting picture will allow you to evaluate how well it will be located new sofa or an indoor chair.
5. With masking tape, mark on the floor the places where you plan to put a chair or sofa. This option is suitable for placement upholstered furniture, which will take up a lot of space on the floor. Such dedicated zones will allow you to determine the maximum dimensions of the furniture.
6. Turn to professionals and order a design project of furniture. In general, this is an excellent option that puts all the hassle of choosing and arranging furniture on the shoulders of specialists. The main drawback of this solution is high price design project. In addition, your ideas about beauty may not coincide with the opinion of the designer. You can also use a service such as Express Design Consultation. In this case, a professional designer does not draw up a detailed and therefore expensive furnishing project, but simply gives some advice. Such a visit usually takes about three hours and is relatively inexpensive.

When drawing up a plan for arranging furniture, remember that each room will have its own semantic center. In the bedroom, it usually becomes a bed, in the living room - a set of upholstered furniture, a fireplace, an original coffee table or a wall with bookshelves, in the kitchen - dinner table, and in the nursery - workplace or a bright sofa. It is necessary to arrange the rest of the furniture in such a way as to emphasize the importance of this central piece of furniture.

In this spacious bedroom it was possible to put full set furniture - a king-size bed, two bedside tables and a spacious wardrobe

Dedicated iPad apps could well replace the traditional ways of planning furniture arrangements. With their help, you can feel like a real interior designer and spend several hours enthusiastically placing all new furniture models in their places.

Determine the maximum budget

The price issue is very important, as it significantly limits the choice. For example, furniture of a well-known brand cannot be cheap, author's and created in a single copy - even more so. At the same time, nothing prevents you from typing "luxury furniture" in the search box. Look, ask the price, and then you can look for similar models at a more affordable price.

The material used to make furniture also depends on the maximum cost that owners can afford. Of course, solid wood furniture natural wood, with forged parts self made or from exotic materials, such as bamboo or rattan, will cost more than MDF and chipboard furniture.

Leather sofa, original carved coffee table, soft chairs, a chest of drawers by the window and elegant cabinets made it possible to fully furnish this cozy fireplace room

Here are the chairs round table, based on the original leg, will cost more just because they are made in Italy

We select furniture according to the style of the interior

Before choosing furniture, you should also decide on interior design. You don't want your living room, planned as a real example of high-tech style, to turn into a room whose arrangement clearly ended at the "hi-so" stage. Namely, the wrong selection of furniture will lead to this effect.

Remember that furniture that is ideal for modern will never be able to harmoniously fit into a strict classic interior. For the convenience of buyers, sometimes it immediately indicates that this kit is designed in a specific design style. So, you can find furniture in the style of Provence or Baroque. But most often in such catalogs only the manufacturer, cost and material of manufacture are indicated, and the buyer himself has to guess about the stylistic orientation by the external parameters of the piece of furniture.

In their articles describing various styles interiors, we have already written about the features of the furniture. In short, there are the following basic rules:

1. For historical interior styles, such as classics and baroque, excellent suitable furniture with carved facades, sofas with rounded backs, chairs with gracefully curved legs. In such interiors, furniture made of metal and glass is not appropriate.
2. But for high-tech and other modern styles, you should choose furniture with laconic facades, possibly made of glass, with shiny chrome details. Upholstered furniture should be chosen in strict straight forms, with plain upholstery.
3. Ethnic styles love variegation, so in this case, upholstered furniture can be bright, with appropriate patterns and ornaments. And cabinet furniture is better to prefer dark wood and strict forms.
4. Wrought iron furniture perfect for mediterranean interior or country style.
5. Japanese or Chinese interiors suggest the presence of bamboo furniture, as well as objects with dark lacquered facades, decorated with carvings.

If you are determined to decorate the interior in strict accordance with a certain design style, be sure to pay attention to choosing the right furniture, otherwise all your efforts will not be successful!

We advise you, when going to the store, to print out at home a few photos with the items of furniture you like and ask to see something similar. Stock up on a real "portfolio" to show the manager what style of furniture you are interested in.

Such a milky-colored sofa corner will look perfect in modern interior designed, for example, in the style of minimalism

In the lung scandinavian style light wood furniture looks great, with minimal decor. In this dining area, the dining group is designed in the same style as the sideboard with glass doors.

Choosing a color scheme

When choosing a color scheme for furniture, there are two main options:

1. Selection of furniture designed in the same color scheme that and finishing. For example, if you have light green walls in your room, you can purchase a soft set in a darker shade of green. Brown in this case will go well with beige, and blue with blue. Such an interior will turn out to be very calm, perhaps somewhat boring, but at the same time it will never cause irritation and will always be relevant.
2. Contrasting colors. This option assumes that it is the furniture that will become the brightest accent of the interior. The classic combination is black and white, but this option will seem too concise to many. You can also choose proven combinations of blue with yellow or milky, green and rich brown, gray and turquoise. IN modern styles one of the most fashionable combinations remains lilac and silver.

By the way, furniture selection apps also allow you to change the color of selected items, so you can immediately see how a particular sofa upholstery looks against your walls.

Working with applications for a tablet or smartphone, you can change not only the color of the furniture, but also the upholstery material

This spacious living room combines black leather furniture with gray decorative stone walls. A flooring, well imitating the warmth of natural wood, made the interior more homey, not so office

Without the bright red sofa, this snow-white room would look like a hospital room. It was such a bright detail that made the interior very original and attractive in its own way.

Our recommendations will be especially useful to homeowners who are planning to completely refurbish one of the rooms or are choosing furniture for their new home for the first time. Do not rush to the nearest furniture store to purchase what is available. Think over your decision well, prepare in advance, go through all the mandatory selection steps, and only after all this place an order in the catalog, call a furniture maker or go to the store.

Properly selected furniture is a guarantee that a person can relax at home after a hard day, recuperate and spend their free time comfortably.

Much depends on the choice of sofas, tables, kitchens, because furniture should be not only functional and comfortable, but also beautiful. The space around a person creates a mood. If he likes the interior, the design makes him happy, the time spent in the apartment is beneficial. And vice versa, old furniture can be depressing, because every person wants to surround himself with beautiful things.

Wholesale cabinet furniture is an option that is ideal for large office equipment, because wholesale purchase allows you to buy furniture at a reduced price. In addition, bulk purchases will help you quickly and cheaply arrange an apartment if several people you know are doing repairs at the same time.

To start choosing the right furniture, first of all, you should decide on the color scheme. It is important to remember that color greatly affects a person's mood. Psychologists note that one color has a different effect on people depending on their temperament, gender and age. For example, blue helps develop creativity and inspiration in children, and has a pronounced calming effect on adults.

Cabinet furniture becomes ideal solution for the equipment of a small room. It is quickly assembled, at the request of the customer, exactly the version of furniture is created that fits better into the living space. Thus, a person can act as a designer and independently decide what new items will appear in his apartment, and specialists will bring any idea to life.

Certain requirements apply to bedroom furniture. This space, first of all, should help a person to relax and fully recuperate for the next day. That is why designers do not recommend overloading the bedroom with unnecessary furniture, they advocate the use of built-in wardrobes and neat cabinets, elegant bedside tables. The only interior detail that can be massive in the bedroom is the bed, because it must be durable and reliable.

In fact, the bed should be large, not creak and be based on a solid frame. How it will look, in what design it is executed is a matter of taste of a particular person. Recently, many buyers prefer furniture with a concise design, straight lines and deep hue. For example, it can be a dark wood bed, or vice versa, a light version that will visually expand the space.

Quite different requirements may apply to the design of the living room, because this room is multifunctional. Here you can gather with relatives to watch TV, you can arrange parties. If there are children in the apartment, the living room will quickly turn into a room for joint games and meetings with friends. Accordingly, quite a lot of furniture can melt here, it is only important to choose all the details of the interior so that they blend well with each other and are functional.

There are also nuances in the issue of arranging the hallway. In the first place in the requirements for furniture for the corridor are functionality and dimensions. Wardrobes for clothes should not be too large, because several people should fit in the corridor at the same time, otherwise it will be extremely inconvenient for family members, friends, guests to undress. In addition, there should be a convenient mirror in the corridor, in which you can look before leaving to check if everything is in order. A shoe rack will allow you not to scatter shoes all over the space, but to carefully arrange them and clean them if necessary.

As you can see, each type of furniture has its own requirements. quality, beautiful furniture will make a house cozy place where you really want to spend your free time.

The color of the furniture determines the interior

If in Soviet times our grandmothers, and what's there, even our parents chose furniture, only based on considerations of its presence or absence on the shelves, now the situation has changed radically.

Shops are full of all sorts of models of sofas, armchairs, tables and chairs, made in different styles with the use of modern space technologies. Eyes open!

And color solutions generally uncountable, as it seems to the layman. The opinion of a professional on this matter is slightly different.

The director of the Sofa Formula factory, Eldar Khalikov, today will advise new settlers on what to build on when choosing the color of your interior.

My advice to new settlers is this: it is better to choose the color of the wall decoration based on the range of furniture.

The fact is that furniture manufacturers use only the most popular shades in the manufacture of upholstery, but the fantasy when painting wallpaper or mixing colors can be completely unlimited.

As a result, there is a risk of getting into a situation where the buyer cannot match the color of the upholstery to the already purchased finishing materials.

Cabinet furniture has only a few shades: as a rule, these are light and dark woods or materials that imitate them, silvery chrome and dark plastics.

Now let me give you some practical advice how to choose the color of furniture for a particular style of interior.

Classic

Of course, natural wood furniture will look better here. Such furniture harmoniously looks in a room with high ceilings, parquet, large windows, stucco on the ceilings, columns. The appearance of such a room is very respectable, one might say - pompous.

Modern

Furniture in the Art Nouveau style also does not exist bright colors, but the play of light colors brings its own special charm to the house.

Minimalism

In a room furnished with this type of furniture, your favorite trinkets do not look appropriate. Minimum space occupied, pragmatic, practical, no frills. And with color, there is an opportunity to experiment ad infinitum! Various shades of colors, their successful combination, as if compensates for this minimalism.

I would especially like to note that furniture of this type, in combination with white color, adds to the room an increase in space.

There is one rule that will always work for you. If your room in which you pick up furniture is small, try to pick up furniture in light shades and colors, increase the lighting, if possible. The color of the furniture and additional lighting, as well as mirrors in combination with glass, will only increase the space of your room.

Best for living room green color: it relieves tension and fatigue, soothes. For a better perception, you need to add blue or yellow accessories to it.

If the room is dominated by red, this increases irritability and aggressiveness. In addition, it visually reduces the space. At the same time, red color improves digestion, and therefore it is well suited for decorating a dining room.

Yellow color helps to concentrate, increases creative activity, so it can be used for the office, but it should not be too bright. Also, the yellow color will look good in rooms with windows facing the north side.

Blue color evokes a feeling of relaxation, peace relieves emotional stress - it is ideal for a bedroom.
Purple should not be chosen for decorating a room: its effect on the psyche is manifested in a very large decrease in physical activity and performance, the occurrence of a depressed state.

Don't get carried away with brown. Although it evokes a feeling of calmness, the dark tones of this color will provoke the appearance of gloomy thoughts. When choosing a color for the workspace, remember that it is not recommended to use the blue color: it reduces visual acuity.

So that your eyes do not get tired, choose white, yellowish and greenish colors. Neutral colors (white, gray, black) can be used in any interior.

White color can occupy a very large surface in the design of the room, it perfectly complements any colors and serves as an excellent background. Using black in the design of the room, you need to strive to ensure that it does not take up too much space. It is better to use it as a shading for other colors.

Don't need to use for interior a lot gray color: it acts depressingly, although its light shades are a good backdrop for furniture and other furnishings. Light colors should prevail in the design of the room, unless a dark color is specifically chosen for the interior. It is better if the room will dominate bright hues and bright colors take up less space.

For a children's room, gentle tones of blue, pink, yellow, pastel colors, fabrics with patterns will be the best. It is not recommended to use dark colors - black, brown, purple, gray.

Color combinations.

When choosing a color for rooms or other premises, you need to remember that not all colors are combined with each other. If possible, you need to abandon the combination of contrasting colors, it is very difficult to choose them so that they make a harmonious impression. Dark blue and dark brown colors go well with each other; yellowish brown and beige, especially if you use bright red or maroon accessories; cream with light beige, terracotta, sand, dark brown; brown with white or beige and blue or green additions; chocolate and dark brown combined with reddish-pink. A combination of cold blue with gray or metallic accessories is not recommended: this combination gives a too formal impression, so if you want to decorate the interior in this particular color scheme, you should add black.

It is very effective to use a monochromatic combination for interior decoration - various shades of the same color. By choosing this combination, you can complement the interior with small details of bright colors that are in harmony with the main one.

Having chosen a multi-color version of the interior for interior decoration, remember that one of the colors should still prevail. You should not take only cold or only warm colors for interior decoration. To the main cold color, you need to select details in warm colors, and vice versa. The warm ones are red, yellow, orange, yellow-green, purple, the cold ones are green, green-blue, cyan, indigo, violet, the neutral ones are white, gray, black, beige.

Size matters too

You can “push” the boundaries of a small room if:
- paint the walls in light colors
- pick up light furniture in a harmonious color
- choosing a soft, muted color for decorating the room
- on one of its walls, fix rectangular mirrors end-to-end

You can reduce, make the room more comfortable if:
- use wallpaper, fabrics with a large pattern
- choosing warm colors as the main tone in the design of the room, and dark-colored furniture and wallpaper for interior decoration
- paint the walls in bright colors
- make a contrast trim
- paint the longitudinal walls lighter than the transverse ones

beautiful appearance furniture is not always accompanied by quality

Thus, the buyer will be able to protect himself from purchasing a low-quality product that will fall apart or lose its aesthetic appearance after a few months.

The main criteria that you need to pay attention to before choosing and buying upholstered furniture are as follows:

1. Price policy. The furniture market offers its consumers a variety of furniture options - from budget to elite. It is necessary to make your choice based on the possibilities of the family budget, but at the same time give up cheaper options. As you know, a miser pays twice. As a rule, an incredibly low price hides a poorly selected material from which the furniture itself or its components are made. It makes no sense to hope that she can last a long period.

An important role in choosing upholstered furniture in the living room or bedroom is played by the overall design and interior of the apartment, as well as its area.

What form and model to give preference?

An important role in choosing upholstered furniture in the living room or bedroom is played by the overall design and interior of the apartment, as well as its area. It must be remembered that a sofa, armchairs with powerful armrests and a curved back, too bulky decor, are hardly suitable for a small room. A classic simple version with regular shapes and a straight back will fit well into a small space.

In the event that the interior of the room is close to classic style, upholstered furniture can be purchased with a small and neat wooden insert decor. Thus, all interior items will be in harmony with each other and create a beautiful aesthetic appearance of the room.

In the event that the interior of the room is close to the classical style, upholstered furniture can be purchased with a small and neat wooden insert decor.

For small rooms good choice will become corner sofa, especially if the latter is often used for relaxing after work. These sofas are very roomy, and two people can easily lie down on them. An excellent addition to it would be a comfortable pouffe or armchair.

For small rooms, a corner sofa is a good choice.

If you buy a sofa in the bedroom, then first of all you need to pay attention to how the process of folding and unfolding takes place. Make sure that the structural elements are made of quality material and will be able to withstand the constant and daily layouts of the sofa for sleeping. For the bedroom, you can buy sofas of the "book" or "click-clack" types, they take up little free space even when unfolded. Such a proposal is especially relevant if it is supposed to put furniture along the wall. If the arrangement of furniture in the room and the availability of space allow, you can opt for the following models: accordion, roll-out sofa, folding sofa. A good option for sleeping would be the presence of an orthopedic cover on the sofa.

Sofa - accordion

To make sure that the furniture is comfortable, you can and should sit / lie down on it right in the store. Make sure the desired degree of softness or hardness, the absence of any bulges, evaluate the height of the sofa. In a sitting position, you can determine the height of the furniture - too low or too high will bring inconvenience and spoil the rest. Each person has his own concept of convenience and comfort. For some, it is convenient to fall on soft pillows, while others find it more comfortable to sit with a straight back. At the same time, in both versions, the furniture seats and the pillows that complete them should be with a barely noticeable slope (or have a small protrusion) in order to keep the person sitting under the knees.

To make sure that the furniture is comfortable, you can and should sit / lie down on it right in the store

What material should the frame of upholstered furniture be made of?

The main load is assumed by the frame of upholstered furniture. That is why it must be made of high quality and durable material. To date, furniture manufacturers make frames from the following materials:

• solid wood;
• metal constructions.

Chipboard and fiberboard are the most budget options

Chipboard and fiberboard are the most budget options, their market value is an order of magnitude lower than other materials. It should be noted that such budget options are not distinguished by high strength and reliability. As a result, they will not be able to serve long time. In addition, everyone knows that low-quality material (chipboard or fiberboard) can contain toxic substances that are harmful to health. As a rule, the danger lies in the glue that is used to make the above materials. As for strength, even in the cheapest options, solid wood elements are used to make the frame, since chipboard and fiberboard boards alone cannot support the entire weight of the structure.

The frame made of natural wood will last much longer in time

The frame, made of natural wood, will last much longer in time. The cost of such furniture will vary depending on the type of wood that was used in the manufacture. Experts do not recommend choosing pine furniture, this option is less reliable and durable. The wood must be hardwood. It should also be noted that manufacturers quality furniture leave some structural elements open so that the consumer can verify the reliability of the purchased product. Wooden structures must be of high quality and not have various knots or cracks. The wood used is dry and well treated.

Most practical option today is a frame made of metal

The most practical option today is a frame made of metal. It perfectly combines three main criteria: low cost, high quality and durability. Often on the market you can find combined options - metal structures with elements of chipboard or fiberboard, metal carcass with solid wood.

Acceptable elements made of chipboard or fiberboard may be drawers or rear interior furniture compartments. Often such production schemes are used in order to reduce the weight of furniture.

Upholstery seams must be made on the highest level and be as strong as possible.

What should be the furniture upholstery?

It is pointless to give advice on what color to choose upholstered furniture, since all the conditions in this case dictate the interior and color scheme of the room. In this case, more important aspects are upholstery materials and the quality of their execution. How to choose a good upholstery for upholstered furniture? Pricing plays an important role in this matter. Although even when choosing one of the budget options, you need to pay attention to some important points. First of all, seams. Upholstery seams must be made at the highest level and be as durable as possible. Even in the presence of the slightest threads or knots sticking out, the acquisition of such furniture should be abandoned. At correct technique execution, the upholstery is sewn together with a strong thick thread and a thin needle so that holes do not form, which will become larger and larger in the future.

An important characteristic is also the moisture-repellent properties of furniture upholstery.

An important characteristic is also the water-repellent properties of furniture upholstery. In addition, the material for upholstered furniture should be chosen one that can be easily cleaned from various stains because different situations may arise. Among the most suitable options can be attributed to the fabric impregnated with Teflon or sprayed.

Chenille fabric is comfortable and practical

The following types of upholstery are most in demand by consumers in the furniture market:

Today "my home" is not only "my fortress", but also the place where we spend most of our lives. At home we relax, study, raise children, have fun, and some even work at home. Properly furnished apartment helps to relieve stress after work, creates a feeling of comfort and harmony in the family. But, living in a constant rush, we often approach the interior design irresponsibly, and do not always buy the furniture that could make our life more comfortable.

The leading designer of CJSC "Involux" Ulyana Sergeenko shared the secrets that helped the company create furniture that is in demand not only in the CIS, but also in the Czech Republic, Italy and Germany, as well as win many prestigious awards. Using the advice of a professional, you can choose beautiful, comfortable and ergonomic furniture for the nursery, bedroom, living room and hallway.

First of all, you should decide in what color scheme you would like to decorate your home. There is an important detail here: each color has a different effect on your mood. Moreover, according to psychologists, even one color can have a different effect on people, depending on their age, gender and temperament.

So, in children, blue awakens creativity and inspiration, stimulates a craving for learning. While for older people it has a more pronounced calming effect: according to studies, in adults, the sight of blue lowers blood pressure, slows breathing, reduces appetite and muscle tension.

Some furniture companies, including us, take consultations from psychologists in order to choose the optimal design of collections for different rooms depending on who lives in them and how they spend their time.

The color of the room affects the mood

If the area of ​​​​the room is small, but you want to furnish it with taste - pay attention to the collection of modular furniture. They allow you to buy not the whole set, but only what you need, and assemble the desired composition from matching parts, like a designer.

This option is great when combining two rooms in one. For example, an office and a bedroom.

Modular collections allow you to buy only those pieces of furniture that you really need.

Children's

Your child does not need a huge table and a chic leather chair to emphasize the status and high position. But this does not mean at all that he will get by with a spring bed and a cabinet hastily knocked down from pieces of plywood.

A well-furnished nursery will not only please your child, but also protect him from bruises during falls (if the child is very young), help him develop and learn, stimulate activity and creative thinking, develop independence and responsibility.

The first thing you need to know about children's rooms is that you should not divide the room into rigid functional areas: "study", "bedroom" and "playroom". After all, by such actions you can easily arouse in your child an aversion to learning.

In a good nursery, everything is located nearby: a bed, a computer desk, a wardrobe. It is also important to choose spacious shelves and drawers that will fit a growing fleet of vehicles or an ever-growing collection of favorite dolls, so as not to shift them from place to place and avoid a mess.

Another plus of this arrangement is that even in very small rooms there is a lot of free space, which in any case the baby will need to play.

In a good nursery, everything is located nearby

Moreover, all furniture should be comfortable for the child. No complex designs! Pick up cabinets and bedside tables so that the doors and drawers open and close easily, and the child can easily reach the handles.

The second rule of the nursery is good lighting, bright and light color furniture and wallpaper. All children are instinctively drawn to just such colors, and there is not a single reason to prevent them. Properly selected colors have a positive effect on the mood of the child, his sense of self and attitude to life.

It also matters if you have a boy or a girl. And if before the age of 5 this is not yet critical, an older child already begins to feel like a person, acquires a certain social circle.

When there are two children in the family, many prefer bunk beds. This perfect solution, but it is important to make sure that it is comfortable and safe for children. The edges of the bed (as, indeed, of all furniture) should be rounded to prevent injury on impact. Steps should be at a height that is comfortable for the child.

Bedroom

Adults have different needs, but no matter how high status you hold and how much you work, there is always a place where you can hide from the hustle and bustle for a few hours and have a good rest.

Of course, bright disturbing colors are not welcome in the bedroom. It is also advisable not to litter this room with unnecessary items: according to psychologists, they only interfere good rest.

The dominant feature of the bedroom, you guessed it, is the bed. It is on it that you will spend about a third of your life. Therefore, if you want to always be cheerful and in good shape, the choice should be approached with all responsibility.

A comfortable bed and a minimum of items are the key to a good sleep
