The design of a round room can look very interesting if you choose the right decoration principles and materials for it. The roundness of the walls is not a disadvantage, but rather the opposite – a dignity. Walls like this can get special “zest” your apartment, and give it exclusivity.
Tip: A rounded wall is already decorative in nature, so you shouldn’t overload it with additional decor. Do not get carried away, choose the option that suits you best, and stop at it.
Round interiors are distinguished by architectural design:
- in the plan the room has the shape of a circle,
- one rounded wall,
- round baffle.
In the event that a plane rounded in plan has a considerable length, it will be enough to slightly emphasize this feature. In this case, the texture of the wall should be neutral so as not to interfere with the main thing – the perception of form..
On long rounded walls in the design of a round room, decorative plasters (embossed, Venetian), wooden panels (flexible), as well as cladding with non-standard materials (for example, cork or stone) look good.
If a door is needed in a rounded wall, then it is better to make it decorative. In this case, sliding doors made of natural materials (glass, wood) look original.
Cladding
Small rounded sections of walls in an apartment can be erected only for decorative purposes, or carry the function of delimiting space into zones. At the same time, it makes sense to focus on this element of the round interior to emphasize its uniqueness. For this purpose, you can use unusual materials, such as mirror glass, decorative panels made of stone or wood, mosaics.
A rounded wall can serve as a support (column or half-column), a portal in the entrance area of an apartment or an interior one, a window or doorway, or a false window (for decorative purposes) can be mounted in it. In all these cases, the decoration can be used: masonry, mosaic patterns, reflective tiles (mirror or metal). Even the use of fabrics is possible.
Decoration
When creating a round room design, using an effective wall covering is only one option. For example, walls can be left smooth but decorated with decorative elements. This approach leaves the possibility of a fairly quick change of the interior in the event that you want to change.
Tip: Never combine these two approaches, choose one thing: either wall decoration with textured materials, or the use of decor with smooth walls.
Niches can be built into a rounded wall, and vases, figurines, photographs can be placed in them.
The use of lighting in such niches will further emphasize the complex relief of the room..
Framed pictures or photographs can be hung on the walls, while it is better to choose one picture or several, but of the same size and arrange in a row, so they more clearly emphasize the roundness of the wall.
Circular interiors are not only inviting but also functional by using rounded walls to hang bookshelves or hanging storage cabinets. At the same time, the shelves with books are decorative in themselves and no additional decorations are needed, but the facades of the hanging cabinets should become an ornament – with this in mind, they should be chosen.
