Arabic style of the interior

The eastern style in the interior is mainly intended for the Arabian countries and the few countries of North Africa, which once accepted the Islamic faith, for example, Turkey, Egypt, Spain and so on. Arab style speaks of one feature – this is the observance of certain canons of religion, respectful attitude to the traditions of ancestors.

According to the laws of the Koran, you cannot use the image of people and animals, therefore, in Muslim culture there is no painting, as well as sculpture. The main feature in the interior is expensive ornamental, that is, the presence of Arabic ornaments, which are a combination of geometric shapes and decorated with motives of vegetation. Such ornaments are performed using mosaics or painting on the walls, previously plastered.

In the Arab style, the most important role is played by saturated bright colors: white, gold, red, green and blue. The traditions of this style dictate their rules, for example, the recesses are covered with purple paint, and convex – golden. For walls and ceilings, special panels from a variety of trees are used. Fragments of wood are attached to them, which are geometric shapes, such as rhombus, square, star. Sometimes the walls are decorated with an expensive cloth (silk, organza, brocade, and so on) or natural woolen rugs. The sexual coating is made of mosaics and is covered with the original brightest carpets of handmade, because the Arab style does not welcome the floor not covered. The Arab people realized themselves in the art of making beautiful carpets. Persian carpets are very popular all over the world, and their manufacturing process is very laborious. However, they are luxurious and their cost is quite high. Such carpets will certainly become a family relic and will be passed down from generation to generation. Door openings are performed in the form of rifle arches with carved platbands or some kind of ornament. Doors can be represented in the form of forged grilles.
