     Feng Shui has its origin in China and it is an ancient art. These two words mean "wind and water". This concept is based on the idea that people, places and things have energy that materializes in the art of interior design in order to achieve balance and harmony in relation with the environment.

                                          Yesterday I was visiting a giant construction materials store from my country. It was a great day because I discovered a lot of new things and got inspiration. Most of all I like the wallpaper section. I saw so many types of wallpaper… I just did not want to go home. That’s why now I want to share with you what I’ve learned.      The wallpaper is a type of decoration that will always be trendy.

     You can find this unique and unusual interior design (for a bar) in Venice. It is called “The drunken bar” and it’s a Venetian Wanderings. Designer of this special room is Tobias Rehberger, who has a lot of projects with the same idea, namely to create a very special illusion. A characteristic feature of the interior design is that is creates a strong impression. Guests of this bar can easily get drunk even without using any alcohol. Feature of the interior is also its complete draining and masking objects and interior elements with each other. Design goal was to create a mood associated with hunting and militancy. Such design destroys and distorts reality. The result of this distortion is that you can not either see some of the items or can’t pinpoint the location of furniture or interior space. The concept of «La Biennale» is - consciousness can’t sort and correctly interpret the "funky" colors and images that distort reality and our own reality.

                                        Choosing the right pot for the plant is as important as the proper light source and watering. So, how should it be? How big? What color to choose? Made of clay or plastic?      Some of these questions are less important. But if you want your plant to grow healthy and fine, you should pay attention to its dimensions and the material from which the pot is made. Unfortunately, we select often just a pot which fit better in the room décor, without looking at other criteria.      Plants that don’t need much water have to be set into a clay pot. This allows air and water to circulate through it, facilitating earth drying.      Plastic pots are ideals for plants that love moisture , because they don’t let the air to circulate. Therefore, plants that do not need a high level of humidity shouldn’t be set into a plastic one, otherwise plant roots will rot.      Type of the root is another criterion to look at. For example, plants with shor
