Inspiration Of The Day "Design is where science and art break even" Robin Mathew

Image
                                             When I think about these two concepts, to my mind comes such brilliant artist as Michelangelo Buonarroti and Leonardo da Vinci. They fully understood the unique combination of art and science and how important it was to think innovatively. Renaissance is the period when science and art began to live together.

Inspiration Of The Day “Have no fear of perfection - you’ll never reach it.” Salvador Dali

Image
                                                     Perfection is a concept which is far too abstract for anyone to strive for. Perfection is completely impossible to obtain, because it's a relative thing and we can't even define this word. But we should always tend to something better because we can only perceive changes (in our homes). That's why we shouldn't be afraid to try new things, new colors,new accessories etc.      It's ok to mismatch, the most important thing is to feel comfortable at home.

Inspiration Of The Day “Decorating golden rule: Live with what you love.” — Unknown

Image
                                                           Everyone has some things that make them happy, things that remind them about beautiful moments in their lives... But why we keep them in boxes and just occasionally find these things and put them back?      As I thing, we should surround us with such kind of things that make us feel happy and warm. Don't buy home accessories just because they are considered to be in vogue. Buy something you really like, something that make you smile. Or, even better, DIY something with your family and place this object on a coffee table or on a shelf. Arrange your favorite books in a noticeable place; do the same with some photos etc.      I wish you good luck ;)     ALSO SEE: 10 Interior Design L...
