Vanguard: life at the forefront of design

Choosing an interior style is easy to get confused. A lot of modern ideas, vivid and unique, extravagant and gravitating to the classics, can arrange in your head a real war for square meters of territory. Each of them has its own canons and norms, materials and color schemes. But if you want to make your apartment as original as possible, then you need to go against the generally accepted norms of design and choose an avant-garde style.

Traditionally, the avant-garde style is characterized as a direction in art (whether it be music, architecture, painting or theater), which runs counter to traditional ideas about various genres, ways of creating works, their forms and content. Avant-garde art is a current that changes over time, in which there is always room for innovation, and this is precisely its essence.

In design, these are the most advanced materials, experiments with colors and the shape of familiar objects, a new symbolic filling of classical elements.

We can say that this is a kind of aesthetic revolution “here and now”, which always finds something to fight with and changes from generation to generation. The essence of the revolution is a sharp contrast. Hence the main principle of the avant-garde - a contrasting palette, unusual forms, a combination of incongruous.

Color maximalism is manifested in the use of pure basic tones (red, White black, yellow, blue, green).

Of course, not everyone will like the interior in an avant-garde style. But bold and extraordinary natures, he will undoubtedly like it. The main thing here, as in principle everywhere, is not to overdo it, turning the dwelling into a museum of strange objects of incomprehensible purpose with walls, floor and ceiling of all colors of the rainbow.

1. The playing of space and volume. Spacious rooms with a non-standard layout, zoning instead of walls and doors, podiums, arches, steps. At the forefront, they recognize that air is a full-fledged element of the interior.

2. Light as a component of style. Large windows of irregular shape, artificial lighting of different intensities and even colors in different areas of the room. And with the help of elegant design lamps and built-in lighting, you can set the main accents in the decor of the room.

3. Unusual color schemes: walls, floor and ceiling of different colors, furniture contrasting in color.

4. The latest finishing materials. In the avant-garde interior, you can and should use the most advanced developments. The main principle is novelty. In the design of the walls will be quite appropriate metallic wallpaper, decorative plasters.

Original color solutions of surfaces will be provided by modern paint coatings. A 3D floor in one of the rooms can become a highlight of the whole apartment.

5. Original furniture. Classic headsets in an avant-garde interior are absolutely inappropriate. Everything - from a stool to a cabinet - must be unusual, if not in terms of shape, then at least in terms of materials from which the furniture is made. There can be no unnecessary decorative elements, preferably clean lines, smooth or sharp, but without the “openwork” that is alien to the avant-garde.

Looks great in such an interior furniture in high tech style from glass, metal, plastic.

6. Contrasting windows. Fabric for curtains choose bright colors, preferably without a pattern, small details and decorative elements. The color of the curtains must necessarily contrast with the walls. Roller blinds are also quite appropriate.

7. Technique. Plasma on the wall, a modern audio system - all this will harmoniously fit into the interior and will look organic.

8. Accents.Each room has a semantic center, depending on the function. In the bedroom - this is a bed, in the kitchen or dining room - a table, in living room - sofa.

In short, the central element should be the most original, that is, the bed in the bedroom should be more interesting than a wardrobe and a cupboard, but not vice versa.

In general, we can say that the avant-garde is an experiment, a challenge to time and tastes, an attempt to look into the future and move its spirit to the present. At the same time, this is a definite shift in consciousness, feelings, a desire to know “what will happen if”. And when a person is ready to actively change something, not only in the environment, in the objects around, but also in himself, the avant-garde style is what he needs. Here the boldest ideas are embodied, the most unexpected decisions are found, and each room, executed in this image, is unique and has its own special character.

You can reproach the vanguard for deliberate challenge and the desire to stand out at all costs, but without this, you probably can’t move forward. Discoveries are not made gradually, they always happen “suddenly”. And it is thanks to people whose eyes burn with some strange fire that new ideas and things appear, and life itself becomes brighter and more interesting.
