Art-nouveau style (or art nouveau) - one of the branches of modernity, combining the wavy lines of nature, natural ornaments and oriental motifs. Unsuccessfully, art nouveau fell into the background on the background of modernity, so we decided to restore justice and give the laurels to an original and interesting style, which will be discussed in the future.
Art Nouveau architecture
For the first time in architecture, art nouveau has been actively used since the end of the 19th century. Difficult, sometimes amorphous buildings cut through the flat roofs of the sky, and unusual mosaics created a panorama of color, coloring the rooms in all colors of the rainbow. The basis of the Art Nouveau style in architecture is the creation of the concept of a single, harmonious and natural space: flowing lines, drop-shaped forms, rich forging of precious metals, colorful frescoes decorated buildings of churches, libraries, galleries and expensive hotels, some of which are represented in the images below.

Art Nouveau in the interior
Actually, the Art Nouveau style in the interior has been used since the beginning of the 20th century, to this day its popularity is not quenched. The interior in the Art Nouveau style does not tolerate straight lines and sharp corners: a smooth and harmonious "overflow" of furniture, floral ornaments in upholstery, in pictures and figures of animals characterize this style as natural, aimed at oneness with nature.
Perfectly complement the interior of the aquarium or fountain, as the main component of art nouveau is water. And the colors should be chosen truly aquatic: silver and gold - imitating the gloss of water in the sun, azure - the color of tropical water depths, as well as marshy dark brown and black. Decorate the walls with copies of paintings by Alfons Mucha - the brightest artist who worked in this style, and the luxury of Art Nouveau will become the property of your home.

Furniture in style of art nouveau
Art Nouveau furniture must be exclusively natural, made of noble wood and decorated with elaborate carvings. It is good to cover upholstered furniture with silk, self-decorated with a natural motive. Extraordinary surprise your guests and embroidered pillows with brushes, wrought-iron lamps and furniture fittings. A coffee table or a cupboard can be decorated with glass mosaic, or can be pasted with glass mosaic. In general, create in the room the effect of the pristine purity of nature, untouched by man and the "sun" art-nouveau will certainly illuminate your interior.
