A bright accent spot will be a stylish wall in the living room or modular furniture.

Ideal for floors: beautiful marble or classic herringbone parquet. Glossy surfaces with soft forms are in trend. Modern designers are increasingly using bold ideas - decorating the floor with dark marble, picking up similar shades of modular furniture.

The snow-white glossy floor with black furniture looks stylish.

Recreation room zoning

In small rooms, zoning by various methods is relevant:

Modular screens and curtains (curtains) made of thin fabrics.
Stationary drywall partitions, but it will not be possible to remove it.
Making a mode to share kitchen area from the hall.
Combination of lighting (bright - for the working area, with diffused, soft light - in the recreation area).
Shelving (furniture) as a partition.

A burning fireplace will instantly create home comfort and cozy atmosphere in the interior of the living room modern. Fireplaces are an indicator of excellent taste not only in modern, but also in other designs.

Advice! In private houses (cottages) it is better to install real fireplace on wood. And in apartments or in small areas - imitation. Delicate and light Art Nouveau is the originality and softness of forms.

Forged details with flexible lines will bring individuality: stair railings, patterned grilles near the fireplace. It can have forging and furniture for the living room in the Art Nouveau style: comfortable sofas, beautiful carved tables/chairs, etc.

Even at the planning stage, you need to plan original compositions, for example, arrange the furniture diagonally or in the center of a spacious hall.

Pillows or a blanket on the sofa are ideal to choose in matching shades (green-yellow tones). Surrounding finish creamy, beige shades, and the furniture can be chosen in chocolate color.

Choice of lighting

Bright artificial lighting will make the hall unique, this will emphasize modernity. Two types of lighting are better: decorative (chandelier, lamps or floor lamps) and functional.

The main lighting can be in the form of pendant or spotlights, it can be supplemented with floor lamps and sconces.

You can highlight areas with lighting using lamps, a night light for reading books (newspapers) or sewing.

An effective addition will be point lighting, better around the perimeter of the hall. Soft, not too bright lighting to transform the room.

The nuances of modern style

To create maximum coziness and comfort, it is better to have 2-3 chandeliers that will be installed on different levels and differ in power.

Reflected light will visually add space, this can be achieved by setting modular furniture with mirrored doors and inserts.

All lighting fixtures in modern living rooms should be chosen with soft, elegant shapes. The pattern and lines can be repeated in sofas, tables / chairs, etc. Colored glass lamps are suitable, for example, with cylindrical shades and soft light.

Stylish accessories in the hall

A full-fledged guest room of this style cannot do without unique beautiful accessories. original vases, colored stained glass compositions, unusual cabinets, sculptures, beautiful reproductions and fashionable curtains light colors will create a single image of modernity.

To bring freshness and dynamics to the room, you can put a soft carpet with a large pile on the floor, imitating grass. BUT light curtains expand the hall, giving the interior a finished look.

For example, the main focus of the designers is to decorate the entire wall: painting, collage of photographs different years, small paintings, multiple mirrors, etc.

welcome as bright design the walls are a big picture. Beautiful landscapes, where are depicted different types waterfalls, luxurious parks, etc.

Modern design solutions

If selected as base light color, dilute it better with scarlet accents, bright blue or green shades. These can be large-sized paintings, details on cabinet furniture, textiles, carpet, etc. They will soften the "sterility" and give softness to the room.

The black and white version has already become a classic, it is often used in modern interiors. Green, blue-blue or reddish tones will be an excellent addition. So modular sections can be selected with different shades: sofas, curtains, lighting fixtures, decor and other elements.

Photo of Art Nouveau houses

Do you want a house whose facade would combine the already established traditions of the classics and at the same time something modern? It's possible! Art Nouveau houses are amazing combination simplicity, modernity, beauty and lightness. And yet - maximum functionality and nothing more.

Motherland architectural style Art Nouveau - beautiful France. It originated and spread widely across Europe in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, around 1980-1910. It was at this time that global changes were noted that affected all aspects of human life, including the design of the facades of houses. By the way, the word "modern", if translated into Russian from French, means just "new art".

On a note! In Russia, only the term "modern" is used, but abroad the style has other names. This is Art Nouveau, Jugendstil, Liberty, Tiffany, etc. And because of a large number names have been somewhat confusing. Some may represent cubism, minimalism, European style under the Art Nouveau style. Therefore, before developing a project, it is important to clarify with the architect what he understands by the term.

The main features of Art Nouveau are a minimum of sharp straight lines. They were replaced by more natural, smooth, natural ones. There are practically no right angles.

Differences of houses decorated in the style of "modern" from others:

graceful curves and forms of buildings;
asymmetrical buildings;
delicate colors of the facade and interior decoration;
the use of natural materials for decoration;
a combination of even planes and a beautiful discreet ornament.

Modern is optimal combination beauty and functionality. And, perhaps, that is why such houses are popular and used in great demand. Buildings should be not only discreet, but also well decorated externally, also Special attention is given to interior decoration and interior - furniture with smooth lines, mosaics, various planes are surprisingly harmoniously combined with each other in this style. Be sure to separately draw up and process balconies, door and window openings, various architectural elements.

At the same time, Art Nouveau buildings look quite expressive, they are not lost against the background of other buildings and nature. Such a house will look good both on a city or rural street, and surrounded by fields and forests. The style is ideal for mansions, modest country houses and urban high-rise buildings - everywhere there is a design option for the building.

Architecture

The main feature of all Art Nouveau houses is the lack of symmetry, a kind of overflow of forms. Also, a floral motif is often traced in the decoration.

On a note! Without fail, houses in the "modern" style must be in harmony with the environment, whether it is an urban or rural environment. They and everything that surrounds them is a single composition.

Both the interior of the house and its appearance are the personification of chic and luxury, but in moderate strength. At the same time, the house can be made both using straight lines, and with various bends, arches, irregular shapes. decorative elements. By the way, doorways, access to the balcony are often decorated with arches, and the balcony itself can also be bent or have the shape of a polygon.

Windows, layout

Windows in houses usually have quite big sizes. Often there are buildings with, reminiscent of shop windows and shopping centers. However, there may be small window openings, but they usually have an arched top or are decorated with floral designs.

Often a modern-style house can be not just a living space, but a real complex that combines other buildings under one roof (for example, a garage). In this case, all additional premises will have the same exterior finish and harmonize with each other. Various terraces, verandas, balconies, often with glazing, also look nice and modern.

Architectural styles inherent Western countries, are now very popular with domestic developers. In the elite Russian villages, more and more often you can see houses stylized as French Provence, English classics, luxurious baroque or trendy high-tech. But ordinary homeowners are especially sympathetic.

Materials to create

Simplicity and at the same time elegance can be given to Art Nouveau houses through the use of natural materials or their imitations for their decoration / construction, as well as modern ones obtained by the latest technologies production. Innovative construction methods are also often used. Such structures are usually erected from timber; they are used to create large quantities metal, glass, reinforced concrete, stone.

On a note! You can often find houses in the Art Nouveau style, made using frame technology. They have a solid steel base.

At the same time, conditionally modern houses can be divided into two categories:

eco houses, where wood is used for construction (often it is a bar) or is used frame technology buildings;
durable reinforced concrete or metal structures, the walls of which the owners are in no hurry to hide under a layer of decorative finishing materials. And the building acquires a harmonious look thanks to the panoramic windows.

Art Nouveau house - original project

Optional use for facade decoration expensive materials- in this regard, modern as a style is very democratic and offers the owners to use such technologies for decorating the appearance of the house, which will not cost a lot of money, and most of the work can be done independently.

Colors

The color scheme used to decorate both the facade and the interior of Art Nouveau houses is shades that reflect purity and freshness, mutedness, uniformity, less often - some harmonious contrast; So, the following colors can be used:

brown chocolate;
sandy beige;
olive;
range of gray shades;
pale lilac or muted red;
blue;
white.

At the same time, the colors in which the building itself is decorated, and its interior, and everything else related to buildings, should overlap in shades, harmonize with each other.

Diversity

Interestingly, the Art Nouveau style in the design of houses is very diverse and multifaceted. One of the first to actively develop building projects in this direction was the Belgian architect Victor Horta, who focused on the use of metal and glass. Buildings built according to his designs often had such unusual shape that resembled some plants brought from another world. The Frenchman Hector Guimard also made a great contribution to the development of this architectural trend, including the design of metro entrances in Paris. And the buildings built according to the designs of the Spaniard Antonio Gaudi fit so optimally into the environment that they seemed really created by nature itself. And so another branch of the development of style appeared. Thus, one can only wonder how diverse and unusual the Art Nouveau style is.

Table. Subtypes of Art Nouveau in architecture.

Name	Description
	The house looks like the home of a real fighter for cleanliness environment and your health. It resembles a kind of tropical hut, made according to the latest technologies and using modern, but natural materials (mainly wood). Houses in this style look harmoniously on suburban areas.
	The difference between houses made in this style is large panoramic windows, even rather glass walls and real shop windows. The building looks stylish, modern, reminiscent of high-tech style. At the same time, the house from the inside turns out to be light and spacious. The color scheme is represented by white and beige colors.
	Such houses are often built from SIP panels, which is why they are often considered primitive and unsuitable for comfortable and cozy living. Buildings often resemble an office rather than a residential building. Neomodern is the complete absence of unnecessary details and even some sterility.
	Pretty harsh and rough direction of style. Such houses are often built where there is a capricious, difficult and moderately cool climate. The buildings have bay windows, polygonal windows, pointed roofs.
	Oddly enough, there is also a kind of Russian type of Art Nouveau. It was formed on the basis of classicism, it is distinguished by proportionality, accuracy and clarity of lines, as well as an optimally thought-out composition.

Finishing the facade of the house in the style of "modern"

In addition to the forms of the building, the style is largely determined by the decoration. Modern facades are characterized by the presence of even and plain plastered or wooden surfaces, the decoration of the basement with stone (wild or decorative - it does not matter), mosaic patterns in small quantities, window decoration with patterned floral ornaments. Popular with designers are various columns, moldings, cornices, alternating with smooth plastered walls.

Most types of facade decoration can be done by hand, without resorting to the help of specialists. At the same time, almost any structure can be decorated for modernity.

Surface preparation

In order to start finishing the facade of the house and styling its appearance as a modernist style, it is necessary to carry out various preparatory work. So, the wooden facade is inspected for damage, if necessary, it is repaired, and then the darkened surface of the tree is treated with special bleaching preparations. From window frames with grinder or sandpaper the old paint is removed.

Exfoliated layers of plaster are removed from the concrete surface, the surface is leveled. This is especially important if the house will be plastered again. In the area of \u200b\u200bthe basement, which will be covered with stone, only completely falling off plaster is removed, the rest may remain. All deep cracks must be sealed with cement mortar.

Further, any - both concrete and wooden - surface, as well as the basement area, are primed (the choice of primer depends on the specific material). In this case, priming should be carried out in at least two layers, the walls are well dried after each application.

Facade decoration

There are many ways to decorate the facade of a modern house. For example, wooden - just paint. Another method that is suitable for concrete surfaces is plastering. In this case, the plaster is applied to the previously prepared surface in an even layer. It is important to work quickly and accurately enough, because mortars usually dry quickly in the open air.

But the plaster may not look like itself at all. There are ways that will allow you to turn a concrete house into a wooden one using special materials and tools. And the plinth can be sealed with stones.

Plastering decorative "under the tree"

Step 1. First of all, a plaster solution is prepared for finishing the surface according to the instructions on the package (for example, KNAUF Unterputz facade plaster is used as follows: pour the contents of the bag (25 kg) into a container with 4.5–5.0 liters of clean cold water and mix with a construction mixer until a homogeneous, lump-free mass is obtained, hold for 5 minutes and mix again. If necessary, add water or dry mix and mix again).

So, you should get a mass of a homogeneous consistency. In order to end up with a wood grain pattern on the surface finishing material, a special mixture and a matrix with a pattern are purchased.

Step 2 The plaster is applied to the prepared wall surface with a smooth float, which should be held at a slight angle to the surface.

Step 4 After that, the plaster layer is leveled to a thickness of approximately 4 mm.

Step 5 As soon as the plaster dries slightly, the formation of a wood-like surface structure begins. For this, a silicone matrix is used, treated with a special lubricant that prevents adhesion.

Step 6 Lubrication with a brush is evenly applied to the matrix. Next, the latter is folded into a neat roll with a pattern outward.

Step 7 Drawing "under the tree" is done as follows: the matrix is applied with an impression to the dried plaster, and the sealing movements are carefully made on the surface with a roller.

Advice! To prevent the pattern from repeating, the matrix periodically turns over or shifts.

Step 8 Seams are formed between the "boards" immediately after drawing the pattern using a long rail.

Step 9 After the plaster has dried, all sharp corners and edges are removed with sandpaper.

Step 10 Before being applied color impregnation, giving the "wood" color, the plastered surface is cleaned of dust with a brush. The impregnation is mixed before use and then applied with a brush to the surface of the facade. Apply the drug in two layers. The second time the wall is painted after 24 hours after applying the first layer.

Step 11 To emphasize the naturalness of wood, a sponge will help, which is used to process a freshly painted surface. The sponge should be carried out with stroking movements along the “wooden board”.

Stone laying (decoration of the basement)

Wild stone is a beautiful and popular type of decoration for the facade of a building. Due to the high cost, it is rarely used to decorate the walls completely, but for the basement of the building it is often used. Wild stone is a material created by nature itself and working with it is simple and pleasant.

Step 1. A mortar is applied to the prepared surface of the basement with a spatula.

Step 2 The solution is also applied in a thick layer to the surface of the wild stone itself.

Step 3 The stone is applied to the wall in its lower part with the applied mortar and pressed against it.

Step 4 Using a small spatula, the solution is applied to the edges of the laid stone.

Step 5 The second stone is prepared and pressed against the wall close to the first.

Step 6 Repeating steps 1-5, the entire basement is drawn up. Excess protruding solution is removed. After drying, the seams are cleaned with a brush.

With the help of simple methods, you can turn a nondescript residential building into a building in the Art Nouveau style. The main thing is to put a little effort, effort into this and take into account the main features of the design. After the walls are finished, you can proceed to decorate the window and doorways. And here modern also gives you the opportunity to show your imagination and try yourself as a designer.

The fashion style appeared at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. There was a desire to use new forms and materials, to escape from the classics. In Art Nouveau, rounded shapes appear and there are no straight lines and angles. The main noticeable feature of Art Nouveau is floral motifs.

This style is called differently in each country: art nouveau in Belgium and France, secession in Hungary and Austria, art nouveau in Germany, but in the CIS countries it has taken root, like.

In the Art Nouveau style, designers and architects strive for one spatial and object environment in the interior. They use fluid, arcuate lines. It seems that they flow into themselves.

Facades of houses in the Art Nouveau style

In the construction of Art Nouveau houses, architects often use metal and reinforced concrete. They are not hidden under plaster, using their direct aesthetic purpose. You can find many elements of glass - stained-glass windows in doors and window openings, glass mosaic on the facades of houses.

They will contain rows of windows and doors of different sizes and shapes. A separate branch of the style is northern modern. It is more severe, recalling the individuality of the climate. Northern Art Nouveau houses are noticeable for their sharp-angled roofs, hexagonal windows,.

A neomodern house will be somewhat different from a regular modern house. In the eighties of the last century, modernity rose up with the new name "neomodern". In the new trend, unnecessary frills and complex details were abandoned. The architecture of these buildings is more inclined towards office options than living quarters.

Floral motifs and Japanese ornaments are present on tapestry fabrics, wallpaper patterns and furniture colors. Woven flexible strips form some kind of branches. Interesting shades of silver, olive, lilac can be seen in the decoration of the walls.

Furniture in modern style houses is both decorative and functional in the same way. Its upholstery is necessarily decorated with tulips, thistles and irises. In the appearance of sofas, couches and armchairs, you can also find features of vegetation - curved smooth lines depict stems. It has become fashionable to use the effect of aging in the decoration of furniture and accessories.

Modern house style houses have glass lamps and vases depicting figures of non-existent animals. The main ceiling lighting is rarely seen. Mainly used Wall lights, floor lamps.

The interior of the houses creates a special lightness and ease. This illusion is achieved mainly with the help of transparent flowing fabrics and forged items. Sometimes it is impossible to distinguish the border of furniture and walls, ceiling, floor. It can be candlesticks, stair railings, furniture details.

AT modern houses Art Nouveau has ornate ornaments and once-quirky accessories. Handmade or expensive imitation of it looks original in everything. Often notice in the premises the presence of podiums and steps.

Art Nouveau houses appeared in late XIX- at the beginning of the 20th century. Many were interested in the use of new materials and forms. In a word, there was a desire to escape from the classics. Under the influence of these factors, architecture developed. Art Nouveau of the 20th century is expressive. It is characterized by the use of advanced technical means and the latest materials.

The main distinguishing feature of the Art Nouveau house (photo will be presented below) are plant motifs. Each country has a different name for this style. However, Russia took root under this name.

Key Features

When building a house in the Art Nouveau style, craftsmen strive to create a single object and spatial environment. For this, arcuate lines are used. It seems that they begin to flow into themselves.

Of course, we are talking about neomodern. New style got rid of complex details and unnecessary frills. The architecture of these structures is more reminiscent of office options than living quarters.

Features of wooden buildings

Beautiful Art Nouveau houses become so thanks to a kind of harmony. Sometimes the "wooden" direction is called mannered. This is the pinnacle of architectural creativity. It is distinguished by a smooth ornament and the elegance of individual lines. All this seems to be created by nature. The exterior and interior form a single whole. Every detail is chosen with taste bordering on the grotesque. All non-residential space is covered by a figurative and symbolic design and a single ornamental rhythm. The style grew out of the ruins of what was once Stalinist nomenklatura classicism. Domestic wooden modern is a mixture of styles and eras. As for the dynamics of the building, it turns into stained-glass windows and walls, which are filled with inner beauty and impeccable proportions.

Modern realities

What, in essence, is modern? These are complex compositions different materials and textures, curved lines, ornaments and filigree plastic. As a rule, these are handmade or author's works that are made to order. Some elements are made in a single copy. In particular, this applies to decorative panels, wall and ceiling paintings, as well as forged fences. In accordance with this, the implementation of the project becomes much more complicated and becomes significantly more expensive. As for the implementation of house projects in this style, it is incredibly difficult. It requires close attention to all details and sophisticated drawing technique. Each element needs careful study.

Design creation

In the decoration of the walls you can see interesting shades of lilac, olive and silver. Thanks to such combinations, the illusion of the presence of wildlife is created.

As for the modern manifestations of this style, whimsical accessories and ornate ornaments come to the fore. Handmade looks very original. In this case, the use of its expensive imitation is allowed. In rooms, steps and podiums are very common.

Historical information

Modern showed up in Moscow just in time. At that time, the fashion for the construction of turnkey houses began to spread. In this regard, freedom of creativity opened up for architects. This style has been very popular for two decades. Thus, many metropolitan architects now and then turned to its elements. With their use, many Moscow buildings were built. The following are examples:

Yaroslavl station.
Levinson's Fast Printing Partnership.
Hotel "Metropol".
The building of the insurance company "Russia".

Outstanding structures

In particular, two main estate projects stand out. They were attended by William Walcot, who is a famous British architect. He also made a significant contribution to the design of the Estates adjacent to each other in Prechistensky Lane. This is a special order of MTSAO. At one time it was considered the main "developer" of the capital. Thanks to this company, the construction of several objects was initiated, which later turned into Art Nouveau monuments. We are talking about house number 10. It is made in accordance with the canons of laconic English Art Nouveau. The house was purchased by Maria Fyodorovna Yakunchikova, who was the wife of the owner textile factory and brick factories. Karl Gutheil became the owner of another structure. This refers to house number 8. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Karzinkin merchant family began to own the mansion. A few years ago the building was restored. It currently houses the Moroccan embassy. It is worth noting that modernity is not quite, however, characterized by such a symmetrical facade. There is a bright contrast between this house and the Yakunchikova mansion.

In understanding modern man"modern style house" is associated with innovative bold ideas embodied in an architectural creation with broken lines, an asymmetric shape, flat roof, made using glass, metal, stone, concrete, and the facade of such a building is not saturated with excesses. Such an idea is erroneous and does not correspond much to the real stylistic features of the Art Nouveau style.

Art Nouveau architecture (Art Nouveau architecture) is a style in architecture that originated in 1890-1910 in Europe and corresponded to the artistic trend of Art Nouveau. The peculiarities of this architecture is the choice in favor of natural lines, reminiscent of "natural" with the simultaneous rejection of broken lines and sharp corners, as well as a commitment to new technologies in the form of the use of glass and metal.

This style can be characterized by a special decorative effect, the use of plant motifs and the amazing harmony of the creations of man and nature. The highlight of the Art Nouveau style can be called the rejection of symmetry and any repetition. This is what rethinking long ago famous destinations architecture.

The architectural projects of modern houses are subordinated to the solution of the main task of creating a good comfortable environment inside the building. To do this, the most successful layout of houses in the Art Nouveau style should be selected, which determines the entire spatial and volumetric solution and dictates the exterior of the building. This is in contrast to the well-established design principles of the 18th and 19th centuries, which put at the forefront exterior decoration buildings, smoothly moving to its interior layout. This tactic of architectural planning of a residential building increases the free and asymmetric forms in the building.

The best author's projects modern houses in the Art Nouveau style were created by Antonio Gaudi, who is rightfully the brightest representative of the architects of this trend. Art Nouveau houses (photos, drawings, videos, diagrams and draft designs can be viewed in this section) acquire an aura of fabulousness and futurism through the smoothness and roundness of architectural forms.

It is worth noting that, in fact, architectural modernism is the broadest concept, one of the currents of which are houses in the Art Nouveau style.

Architectural modernism (from French modernisme, moderne - modern, latest, from English modern - new, modern) - a direction of architecture that spread in the 20th century, has a turning point, following the idea of a decisive renewal of structures and forms, together with the rejection of past stylistic developments . This refers to new trends in the architecture of Europe from the beginning of 1900 until the 80s.

Under common name architectural modernism refers to constructivism, rationalism of the 20s, which arose in the USSR, European functionalism of the 20s-30s, the German Bauhaus, the trend of architectural art deco, as well as brutalism, high-tech, organic architecture, minimalism and international style . We can say that all these styles are branches of a tree called architectural modernism.

application of the latest developments in designs and materials,

internationality of images.
