Design and interior decoration of the living room
High-tech means a lot of open, free space. The active use of glass and metal visually increases the room. Therefore, the interior of the living room in the style of high-tech will suit the owners of small apartments in multi-storey buildings. In the corresponding design can be made and bedroom, and kitchen, and office space.
The ideal option for developing a style of high-tech in the living room is to invite the designer to design and the construction team to carry out the work. If the budget is limited, then the design of the living room in the style of hi-tech can be thought up by yourself or you can look through ready-made versions in special magazines, but do not forget that the use of high-tech style in the living room is not only the repair of the premises, but also furniture and the use of modern technologies. All this must be taken into account when planning and repairing.

So, the living room in the style of hi-tech is designed and you can begin the main stage. An important element in the design is glass, so the interior doors and partitions should be glass in combination with metal inserts. We recommend to use the door-compartment, which not only fully comply with the style, but also very beautiful and functional. They also save space. To create a certain interior on the ceiling and walls, as a rule, use panels and boxes of translucent artificial stone with a backlight inside in the form of LED ribbons and lamps. Stucco molding and the use of gilt hi-flow jewelry in the interior are not suitable.
For a country house an indispensable addition to the interior of the living room is the view from the window. The real high-tech is always the spacious windows from floor to ceiling.

Racket metalized ceiling fits perfectly and supports the style of high-tech in the interior. Walls should be light colors. It is possible to use a monochrome wallpaper on the walls. For the allocation of a certain area on the walls, slabs of natural stone of gray and metallic tones are glued. For wall finishing, you can use polystyrene glossy or mirrored wall panels.
Wooden panels in the style of hi-tech in the interior do not apply. The floors are covered with either a plain linoleum, or a glossy laminate, or a ceramic tile.
Windows shut the blinds, but if you do not want the house to resemble an office, then it is better to replace them with curtains. Curtains for the living room should also be monophonic, without a pattern. It is allowed to use multi-layer curtains of not more than two shades, harmonizing in color with the general mood of the room.
Furniture and decor in the living room
When the main work is done, it's time to start choosing furniture for the living room. It should fit the style and maintain the overall design of the high-tech living room, so old furniture is not suitable, and this should be taken into account. Upholstered living room furniture in high-tech style (preferably transformers) should be made of simple textile materials of one or two colors, simple geometric shapes.

Hi-tech is always something original, distinctive, so to dilute the cold from the metal, add some bright object to the living room. For example, a vase or lamp, or bright sofa cushions, or other decorative figures - they will give the living room the desired individuality.

The design of the living room in the style of high-tech has one feature: the abundance of lighting in the form of all kinds of lighting devices installed on the floor, ceiling, walls, furniture. For this purpose, various LED lamps or tapes are used. It is complex lighting that completely compensates for the "cold" from the metal in the room.
