Cage in a modern interior

In recent years, in the interior design has firmly strengthened the trend towards monotony. The credo of modern styles is practicality and naturalness. However, the order of annoying color solutions began to gradually be diluted with repetitive patterns, the fashion for which has returned. Geometric designs were popular in the last century, and floral did not disappear from surfaces even longer. Of course, traditional styles have been preserved, in which motley patterns have always been used. The cage in any interior looks fresh and creative. It has the unique property of making things more expensive, which helps a lot with budget repairs. Variants of patterns from intersecting at right angles to the lines of mass, and in some countries, this figure occupies a special role in history. About the styles in which the cell is used and how to organically fit it into the interior, and let's talk further.

Types of cage in the interior

The cage is not as boring as the townsfolk might think. This pattern has many variations and is distinguished not only by color combinations, but also by the special arrangement of lines, their thickness and clarity.


  
 

The list of basic checkered patterns used in interior design includes:

  • Scottish tartan. "Family" pattern of one of the peoples inhabiting foggy Albion.
  • Light Guinea, which is used in romantic interiors.
  • French Vichy. In the 70-80s of the last century, such ornaments were widely used in clothing design. Now it carefully preserved Provence.
  • Burberry This ornament got its name in honor of the company that first used it. The pattern of Burberry came to taste in English football fantasies, therefore it is always associated with hooligan motifs and at the same time personifies everything British. Against the background of a usually light shade at right angles, groups of wide and thin lines intersect.

  • Chess combination according to the principles of contrast and analogy.
  • Pattern "goose foot", which is still used in the design of outerwear and trousers, jackets made of dense, natural fabrics. The ornament seemed to be created by painted bird legs, the owners of which flew out of the cage and trampled well on the canvas.
  • Stylish argyle. This "hem" is usually decorated with classic sweaters and pullovers, but it harmoniously fits even with strict interiors. Argyle combines dark shades.


 
  

Each of the above checkered patterns is only suitable for certain styles and may look advantageous on some surfaces, and completely inappropriate on others.

Scottish cage or tartan

Ornament is produced by twill weaving of threads that are dyed in advance. Tartan variations weight. In Scotland, use a special "encoding" that can only be read by locals. Different types of ornament speak of belonging to a particular organization, locality, or clan. The pattern became the hallmark of not only the Scots, but also their specific clothing. Famous kilts are made of tartan fabric.


    

The pattern consists of horizontal and vertical stripes, which are combined with the areas shaded diagonally. The width of the lines may be different. The pattern is popular far beyond the borders of its homeland. Although the color variations of the Tartan are almost unlimited, the combination of black with red and green is considered the most "favorite". Tartan can be asymmetrical and symmetrical. Bright options are combined only with monochromatic surfaces. For example, a sofa upholstery in a succulent cage will become an accent in the interior, therefore, it is not recommended to add another bright decor and dispel attention. Tartan is used not only in textiles, but also in wallpaper, flooring, countertops and even furniture facades.

Although tartan is an ancient pattern, it has a number of imitations. One of them was the "country" cell, which is created from threads, painted in neutral shades, and is not characterized by contrast.

Contrasting Chess

Chess cell - a classic way to decorate surfaces. Depending on the color solution, it can be:

  • Similar, that is not striking, combining shades close in a spectrum.
  • Contrasting. The combination of colors in such a cage is catchy and colorful. If the pattern is small, then it literally begins to "ruffle in the eyes."

Among the variations of contrasting chess, the black and white version is popular. It blends seamlessly into high-tech, loft, minimalism, chalet, constructivism, futurism and even modern interiors. If the combination seems too catchy, then you can choose a tricolor version where there is a neutral tone for balance: gray, beige, brown.

Tile tile manufacturers are very fond of chess. This pattern adorns many interiors of kitchens and bathrooms.

French vichy

Vichy is a “light” cellular pattern that was used to adorn mostly female summer clothes. He invented in the eponymous French town. The ornament has an incredible ease, which is achieved through a combination of white and mischievous, romantic shades: blue, green, blue, yellow, pink, red, lilac. In the pattern there are three types of cells: two main tones and one intermediate, which is obtained by mixing them. Vishy looks incredibly soft and soft, complete with a delicate openwork. Since the pattern comes from France, it was first integrated into the interior in this country. Moreover, the lightness and airiness of the ornament did not appeal to the strict elite styles that were popular in big cities.


    

Vichy joined Provence - the direction of the French hinterland, and so it remained there. Organically the pattern does not look on solid surfaces, but in textiles of curtains, tablecloths, upholstery, furniture covers, pillows, blankets, napkins, towels.

Air Guinea

Guinem is a type of Vichy. The ornament differs only in special brightness and large cells that look spectacular either on wide surfaces or in large spaces. In English-speaking countries, Vichy is called "gingham", which causes confusion in the names of patterns for a Russian-speaking person. Guinem, in turn, is close to the pattern of "pepita." It is created on the same principle, but cells are formed on the basis of a combination of white and black, brown. Pepita is suitable for decoration of strict rooms: offices, workshops, uncompromising living rooms or spacious hallways.

Patchwork

In the technique of patchwork make blankets, blankets, pillowcases for pillows, towels and rugs. Many multicolored shreds (usually the same size) are simply stitched together. You can follow the principle of the traditional combination of three colors or make an incredibly bright and colorful decoration for your home. Such elements look organic in light, casual styles (Provence, fusion) and a number of ethnic trends. By the way, the patchwork does not impose restrictions on the shape of the patches, but we are only interested in small squares. Incredibly "warm" look mittens for hot, towels and napkins, in which monochromatic pieces are combined with a patterned fabric.


    

Examples of checkered interior

The checkered pattern may include:

  • In the decor (the most popular option).
  • In the surfaces of finishing materials.
  • In the upholstery of furniture or covers for it.

At the same time, there are no restrictions on the types of rooms to be decorated. With the right approach, the cell will look organic in a loft, modern, provenance, country, art deco, chebbi chic, ethnic, high-tech, minimalism, chalet, colonial, Japanese, English, Scandinavian, Italian style. If you really try with the selection of colors, the ornament can even join the classic atmosphere, but without having any design skills, it is better not to risk without the need.

Such a large stylistic “scatter” arose due to numerous checkered variations: both in the nature of the pattern and in color combinations. Light Vichy is only suitable for Provence, Chebbi chic, fusion and "frivolous" Italian style. The use of the ornament created in the patchwork technique is limited to ethnicity alone. Low-key tartan can decorate interiors decorated according to the canons of a loft, country, chalet and art deco. Chess is combined with minimalism, hi-tech, Scandinavian and colonial style.


    

Kitchen-living room

The checkered pattern of juicy shades is especially soft and looks warm in the kitchen. In this room, the hostess usually tries to create a special comfort that will inspire her to prepare culinary masterpieces. The cage can appear in decorative elements and textiles: lampshades, hot gloves, towels, tablecloths, napkins, curtains, coasters, upholstery of chairs and a soft corner. The wallpaper, plastic panels, tiles and even the ceiling lining adorn the naughty pattern. Pink, purple, blue, red, green and yellow cells combined with white and lighter shades of the main, bright tone. In order to make the decoration look complete, the ornament finds its continuation in ceramic and porcelain decorations of the same shades.


    

Argyle, burberry, goose foot and tartan are commonly used in living rooms. These patterns help to create a unique environment that, on the one hand, will lead to severity, but at the same time it will not deprive the room of a raid of home comfort. In the spacious living rooms, you can use the original interior decoration - decorating the accent wall exclusively with a cage. In order to maintain the balance in the setting, the rest of the design should be neutral pastel, without juicy impurities, otherwise the composition will visually "break up" into variegated pieces. Decorative bright pattern can decorate the surface of the sofa, chairs, blankets, pads, rugs.

The brown-and-sandy burberry on the wall perfectly combines with retro-framed pictures with bright blue and blue upholstery of the corner sofa against the background of a gray laminate.

Entrance hall

In small apartments, narrow corridors should be decorated with a cage with caution. For these cases, only neutral variants created from a combination of light shades are suitable. Cramped rooms are always decorated in bright colors that visually expand the space. In the houses, the corridors are more spaciously replaced with luxurious halls. In such rooms with a checkered pattern you can fully decorate one of the walls entirely.

For those who prefer to do a minimum of parts, suitable options with a light decor: ornament on the door mat, on the basket for umbrellas and walking sticks, in the upholstered bench for pereobuvaniya.

Bathroom and toilet

The checkered pattern in the bathroom and toilet is used in the tile surface. The tile can be selected in different colors and “assembled” the drawing by yourself during installation, or you can purchase ready-made ceramics decorated with small squares. It is not advisable to trim the entire bathroom with a checkered ornament. Excessive variegation will damage the room, which usually does not differ in size. With the help of the pattern, accents are made over the bath or in the shower area, two zones of the combined bathroom are separated. Also, the cell can decorate the shower curtains, towels, rugs and even laundry baskets.


    

Original and stylish looks black and white chess on the floor and partly on the walls in combination with white tile tiles. Bright accents in such a decoration are placed exclusively in the form of decor. On such a neutral palette, you can apply strokes of any shades, as it is readily combined with any tones.

Children's

Children's room is the very place where variegated experiments are welcomed and even bright patchwork is suitable. Experts recommend from early childhood to surround the child with rich colors, as this allows him to quickly learn the world, better navigate in space, to recognize objects according to the principle of color associations. In a room for a child, a bright cage is decorated not only with bed linen and a blanket, blanket, curtains, a parrot cage substrate, a book clip, or a chair or sofa upholstery.


    

The pattern can be embodied in storage. For example, numerous shelves in an open rack are painted in different shades and a large colorful cage appears in the children's room. Such an original locker can be purchased in Ikea already in finished form. Budget furniture is ideal for a child who, sooner or later, will “grow out” of it, like an old jumpsuit.

In rooms for teenagers recommend using calmer tones. Boys who are fond of football will be treated by a hooligan burberry, but for girls, Vichy or Guinea will be relevant. Embody ornaments mainly in textiles.

Bedroom

The bedroom is not advised to apply bright, catchy checkered ornament. This room for sleeping and relaxing should be set up in a calm way and relaxation. Black and gray chess can decorate the floor or a couple of pillows, but it is not recommended to draw an accent wall with such a pattern. At the head of the bed use Vichy with neutral pastel shades. In rare cases, apply tartan, argyle or pepita, if the style of the room allows for a similar severity. A soft, beige-gray cell can decorate the head of the bed. The ornament is combined with a monochromatic ivory-colored veil and luxurious wallpaper with a vegetative pattern of the same color.


    

In the strict interior of the bedroom, you can optionally add a bright red, blue or purple rug at the foot of the bed. It is perfectly combined with a similar pattern on the ceiling lamps.

What to combine cell

The cell is referred to as an ornament with an intense, dominant "energy". Regardless of the color solution, it will suppress any other pattern, if it is placed next to it. Checkered surfaces are best combined with solid elements. The combination of colors is chosen according to the principle of analogy, since the contrast is not the best option for an overly active pattern. In rare cases, a pastel cell can organically look paired with a soft, floral ornament, made in the same colors.


    

The cage is out of fashion. Despite the refusal in design of many ornaments that have become traditional, this pattern does not age and does not collect dust on the shelf, but adorns even ultramodern apartments. Because of its versatility and wide “range” of variations, it is easy to choose a cage for almost any interior. She can be calm, naughty, homely, careless, airy, strict and elegant. All that remains is to choose and embody the decoration. Then your interior will be like a clan tartan - unique and inimitable.
