Impetuous progress in IT technologies has promoted not only adoption of technologies in our life but also it has changed considerably home interiors. The techno style keeps its balance on the verge from one side showing itself almost in ugly views and from the other side recognizing aesthetics of technologies in interior and architecture.  Such kind of duplicity lets the techno style to be very expressive. The constructions and buildings in such kind of style are almost “vanishing and transparent”. Their complicated bends assembled from reflected glass let the multistory buildings disappear in air during the day and shine with mysterious light from widows’ flats and offices during the twilight. The living area of home in techno style is associated with elements from factory shops, repair hangars, storehouses and railway stations.  Non concealed beams with lightings, mezzanines in stage shapes, heavy metal doors and spiral staircase are typical for this kind of style. The furniture is mostly like cabinets in locker rooms or safes but as a rule with decorated doors. The cabinets in a type of two metal containers set one upon another enjoy special popularity. Corrugated and perforated metal plates are of great popularity in techno style design: in partitions, open shelves and other elements of décor. Stools which mostly remind lunar rover and chairs from metal plates or bent pipes all of these are elements of techno style. Glass tables with assembled legs or rollers also one of the significant feature of techno style. Metal in different variations, glass, color plastic and some wood are used in techno style decoration. However don’t think that you will have to sit only on rigid metal chair because there is also soft furniture in techno style. Sofas are featured with low and deep seating, metal legs and armrests. Sofas and armchairs are covered with special synthetical covers which are supplied with various pockets for newspapers, remote control and other things as a rule. The popular colors in sofa upholstering are khaki, metallic, wine red, grey and dirty orange. The armchair probably will remind you abandoned bag despite comfortable furniture.  The armchairs also can be from plastic.  The walls feature rough texture as a rule. Usually young people are fond of such kind of home interiors because we know that young soul neglects comfort and warmth as a rule.  Such kinds of interiors are used in places for discos usually where young people feel themselves more free and naturally. The special element to the style will bring neglected condition of the place where some kind of disorder will create certain harmony. The important role is designated to the lighting. Lamps with open metal accessories will bring exclusive look to the interior. Table and floor lamps are folded up, revolved and stretched under different angles. According to the designers which create interior in this style the light should not only fill the place but also to tell definite story, draw the details, metaphors and make deep sense.  Despite the techno style does not featured with optimism it is very demanded among young intellectuals close to cont culture ideas of post-industrial society. However the shade of disappointment inherent in techno style does not prevent it to rush into the future where new technologies, new discoveries and new interiors wait for us.

About the beauty and comfort of leather furniture it is said a lot and that is why we will not repeat the known to all facts. We know that to the category of leather furniture can be related almost all kinds of furniture pieces: home theatre seating, chairs, armchairs, sofas, couches etc. In this article I would like to emphases on more detailed information concerning the selection process of leather furniture! Firstly let’s talk about the safety! The requirements claimed by consumers to any furniture can be transmitted through the following formula: softness+ resistance and durability+ unpretentiousness in looking after. And now let’s apply all these features to leather furniture and we will face with the first difficulties. As a matter of fact it is harder to strive for all these conditions maintenance when talking about leather furniture. Let’s talk about what tricks are hidden in leather furniture. The leather as material for furniture is went through vey complex chemical processing without which it will very soon begin decompose or its as it can be expressed in simple words to spoil. It is obvious that after this it is very hard to talk about this material with pleasure! Poisonous compound of chromium that functions as tanning agent waits its hour very long in order after utilization to get to environment and to begin its “black work” poisoning water, air and soil. The usage of natural plant raw material does not give hundred-per-cent result for the time being: according to manufacturing quality such kind of leather brings nearer to chromium-plate leather however it is considerably worse according to lightfastness feature. And the price of these materials is very high! The same we can say about dye. Traditionally for this purpose the substances of artificial origin are used as the color palette of their natural analogs is strongly limited: black, brown and beige and that is all! Add to this inclination for very quickly burn out of the color. The denial of toxic aniline use in favour of more harmless substance usage can be considered as an unquestionable progress in this sphere. And the process of dyeing went through evident changes: the dye is no longer lain upon as solid layer, which hides natural texture of leather but it soaks into pores accentuating high aesthetic quality of leather material.  Due to this it becomes easier to save the unique texture of leather and also the upholstering is getting “more breathing” and it lets you to keep effective ventilation. Such kind of approach is presented today as technological breakthrough. To consider this point of view or not it depends on individual opinion. But you should accord with me that it is very pleasant to touch uneven surface and passing your hand over the surface to feel inner warmth of the material. Finishing our discourse about the ecological characteristics of leather we can not overlook such kind of question as leather’s maintenance or care. In order to resist effectively various dirty spots on furniture surface special impregnations are used by many furniture manufacturers. In order to keep the upholstering of favourite sofa in proper condition it is sufficient to wipe it with rag moistened in soapy water periodically. After having removed a stain by such kind of method you should wait till the surface will dry out completely and then tread cow milk over the surface which must completely soak into the leather in order moistening it. If you use this method timely the usage of special cleaning fluid becomes desirable but not obligatory. To acquire them you can in almost every furniture shop.

Now let’s talk about different myths concerning leather furniture

Among consumers there are different settled myths but if we observe them more closely we will discover that they are deprived of any grounds. It is assumed to consider that prices on furniture with fabric upholstering are lower than prices on leather furniture. In order to refute this statement it is enough to say that there is today special artificial texture which is called alcantara. This material costs s minimum 10 per cent higher than the leather of the first quality category. It is very often happens that the same leather sofa but in texture upholstering costs higher. Professionals will confirm that the price on leather furniture can not differ too much. If in any case such situation happens then it is obviously that you are presented with low quality leather furniture. Moreover such kinds of points as model configuration and the quality of seams (double seams cost higher) can influence on furniture price. Exactly seams are the true sign of perfect quality of leather furniture. If seams have overlapping or visible holes from needle then it is worth to refuse from such kind of purchase. As you know the big influence on the price has definite brand. Also material of filler has its impact on price: the more it dense the higher the price. And now there is some shocking information for you. In information above we have mentioned about what harm can cause the processed with chemical substances leather. But we did not say a word about what harm cause other types of materials such as cotton and wool. While leather manufacturers have been trying to eliminate these negative features the cotton and wool manufacturers have been doing the contrary actions. Today people do not use traditional shearing. Unfortunately for us and for sheep the fell is worked up with special chemicals and then the fell come out itself. It seems to be very simple and convenient for somebody. But what about environment, about us? Nobody thinks about this, because everybody wants to gain more using competitive advantages! Cotton which is processed with fertilizers is also under risk factor. Today people have learned to pick cotton with similar to wool technology: after pesticides’ treatment cotton leafs shower the earth surface and the harvest is almost got without any impediment. And what is about textile industry? According to official statistics annually about eight thousand of chemical compounds which ameliorate consumer quality of cloth are used in textile production.

As we know home decoration is very important and serious question for almost all people! We thoroughly should follow the rules while being engaged with home décor because home should reflect our taste and personality. Very often we have great ambitions! We think that we will manage with the décor, because it concerns our home! But this is false! We should not be too presuming because it can distract us from the reality and then we can destroy all the composition and plan! You can ask me why it is so? Because sometimes we make some common home decorating mistakes that can make our home look messy. Here are listed some common home decorating mistakes that can help you to avoid it in your home.

>  Furniture arrangement:

Wrong placed furniture is a big mistake that makes your home cluttered and messy. Placing a large sofa in a small room is a big mistake that makes your room over crowded. Small side table with a big sofa also doesn’t look nice. Before purchasing furniture measure the room, too big furniture does not look nice in a small room. If you choose small pieces of furniture for a big room you have to choose more pieces that may make room cluttered.

>  Clutter and disorganization: Too much decoration makes your room cluttered and looks disorganized. Placing too much expensive accessories in living room make it cluttered. Choose selected accessories for your room to make it alive and beautiful. Also avoid too much toys in kids room to decorate it, it may be difficult for you to organize your kid’s room.

>  Match too much: We are not suggesting too matching furniture and furnishings. Too much matching decor make the room look dull. Matching sofa, curtains, rugs and lampshade it means completely matching room can actually appear cluttered. Do not decorate your room look like there is only one color and one style is there. It is a big mistake to avoid in your home.

>  Improper lighting: Improper lighting is another big mistake which we are doing in our house. If a room is too dark then it gives sad feeling and if it is too bright then it is too hard to look at. Kitchen needs task lighting because we perform different tasks in kitchen. Bright light in bedroom and dull light in study room also needs change. Add task lighting, table lamps or floor lamps in study room even though there is over head lighting fixture. Do not ignore bathroom lighting, it is important to have proper light in each room. Read home lighting tips to know which light is suitable for rooms.

>  Too many cables: Is your home is well decorated but there are so many cables on floor? Undressed cables not only make your room cluttered, but it is also a fire hazard. Use cord covers to hide the cables or you can attach the cables to the back of the furniture.

>  Flooring and Rugs: Choose flooring wisely otherwise it may harm you or need changes after you complete the home construction. A slippery floor in bathroom and kitchen makes it dangerous. Carpet in dining room is too hard to clean. White color floor in kitchen is too hard to clean and shine. Little rugs in a big room and wall to carpet in bedroom don’t look nice.

>  Too much decoration and pictures: Too much of decorative pieces can make your home look cluttered and messy. Do not put too many paintings, sculptures and cushions in room. Some times single decorative piece is sufficient for room decoration. A big sculpture in bedroom and too many small sculptures in living room make room messy.

>  Stylish furniture but not comfortable: Buying stylish furniture without thinking about how comfortable it is; is a common mistake. Just think about stylish sofa that gives you backache. Modern dining with uncomfortable chairs only decorate your room, you may not take your meal there. A stylish study chair should not be your choice. Comfortable and durable furniture should be your choice.

>  Curtains: Curtains are very common problem in house decoration. The most common problems are too short or hung too low curtains. Buy curtains longer rather than short otherwise it looks cheap. Curtain style and design should match room decoration style; cotton curtain in modern room and window blinds in traditional room looks cheap.

>  Themed Room: Themed room may be your choice, but a themed living room or dining room is a big decorating mistake. A themed kid room will look beautiful, but a soft theme like fairy theme in girl’s room and cartoon theme in boy’s room will be a great choice. Too bright theme in kids room can make this room messy.

We take care about our body. Therefore it is very important to take care about its base – the spine. It has only several hours a day to be in the natural horizontal position. The correctness of this position and good rest of day loads depends on our mattress.

The mattress has two main functions: supporting of your body is the ability of the mattress to sustain the weight of your body and support your back to be straight during sleeping. The function of supporting in the mattress fulfills its base – the spring or latex block. Comfort is the ability of the mattress to correspond the forms of the body and diminish the load on the common points of pressure. Comfort is provided with the layers of stuff and quilted surface.

Mattress without the spring block is a monoblock of artificial or natural latex. As the filler the leaves of coco fiber – coir – can be used. The mattresses filled with liquid or air is also applied to this category. The spring block can consist of depending interlaced special way springs. Mattresses with the block of independent springs each of which is placed in separate textile bag and works independently of others. All spring mattresses have the layers which are reliable for such qualities of the article as softness, hardness, elasticity and others.

The traditional fillers – thick felt, foamed polyurethane, padding polyester, wool – and modern ones – coco coir, artificial and natural latex – are used widely. The fillers’ main qualities are hygienic and ecological. Many mattresses have the aerators – the ventilation holes which provide the circulation of air inside the construction.

The base is usually made of frame and elastic diametrical wooden laths – lamels. Lamels have the springy effect and work as an entire system with the mattress. Owing to this the firmness is less than when you put the mattress on the smooth surface. The qualitative base provides the normal circulation of air, prolongs the time of usage of mattress and helps it to unload the spine more effective.

You should always take care that the mattress is suitable and comfortable for you and never economize on the real quality. Good sleeping is good activity. Sleep well and stay healthy.

The appearance of apartment depends on several components. To the most important ones the common design of placement and the condition of refurbishment can be ascribed. However that the apartment looks really beautiful, cozy and well-groomed, the order gets not less importance which should always be kept.

Therefore today creating the design of placement it is necessary to remember about the modern systems intended for keeping things. Awful closets and mezzanine disappeared from our design and comfortable cloakrooms replaced them.

Creating the cloakroom you decide several problems at the same time. You get rid from many various cupboards and chests and get the free space to make your apartment spacious and light. And the main thing – if you want your clothes and shoes to be always in order, not rumpled and looked well and each thing has its own place you should make the cloakroom in your dwelling.

Many people think that it is possible to create the cloakroom only in the separate placement, for example in some free room. However the advantage of cloakroom is that any free space in the apartment should be used for its creation – the niche, part of room, corridor or other room.

Any cloakroom is a wardrobe of any size which differs only with the fact that it is possible to enter it. Both doors and partitions of the cloakroom can be made of natural wood, veneered and laminated wood chipboard, glass, mirror. Design and color gamut of doors and partitions should correspond to the common style of placement. For example the wood will blend with classic interior, glass and mirror emphasize the modernity of high-tech style and wicker partition of bamboo will become the wonderful supplement of country or minimalism.

Every cloakroom is worked out by individual project and has its specialties and original design but they are alike by inner filling. Most cloakrooms consist of the following system: the shelves and stands with various sections, bars for hanging clothes, wire baskets and roll-out and open cases. The cloakroom is obligatory equipped with several mirrors. Some hostesses put the ironing board what is very comfortable by the way.

Owing to the modern tendentious the cloakroom stopped being the luxury and became very necessary and useful placement. Therefore think carefully – maybe it’s time to free your house from useless bulky furniture and create comfortable conditions for you and your clothes.

In the end of 20^th century the people became more sensitive to the feeling of nature. Being tired of fighting with the problems of ecology some progressive persons decided to create their own “ecologically clean” world in the limits of their house and free it from all physicochemical garbage.

The eco style in interior began to be discussed when the time for whole nature to be written into the Red book came. The design created not by the person but by the nature itself – this is what the eco style appreciates. Natural materials, warm and comfort palette of colors of ground, sand and bark, simply cozy furniture of modest wood with expressive game of lines on the saw cut of the board, rather coarse linen textile with rough thread webbed in the hopsack – this is what the refined simplicity of eco style consists of.

People who live in such interior become kinder and calmer – they begin to notice the beauty of the simplest things because they are close the person because of their nature, non-aggressive and romantic.

The houses built according to the principles of eco style are spacious and light. This is little furniture here, things and utensils hide in the niches and unsophisticated cupboards. This style leaves the owner a lot of free space for creation and possibility to satisfy the house with various things. Furniture and home accessories in eco style can be met mainly in the most expensive shops of the production of the famous designer firms.

Today’s furniture exhibitions often demonstrate the eco style in interiors like the style of life. Clothes for furniture and windows prevails white and beige, canvas-grey. The bouquets and fruit trees blossom on them. Refined decoration of textile blends wonderfully with the ascetic forms of furniture made of very light or very dark wood. Even sinks and baths now are made of wood; they are supplemented with the wicker cupboards. Dining tables are decorated with the dishes of simple forms made of glass or loam, wicker vases or wood accessories.

The famous words of Coco Channel that the fashion goes away but the style is forages suggest themselves. Moreover, if this style is dictated with nature.
