10 More Original Interior Design Solutions in Projects

Do you feel that lately all projects look the same or even identical? We're ready to surprise you again with unusual design tricks from professionals!

1. Fish-eye Mirrors

A design hack by Anna Muravyova to save budget: a witty alternative to expensive fish-eye mirrors – a model used in parking lots. It created a great illusion and a bright coastal-style interior.

2. Pipe Instead of Railing

An IKEA railing is, of course, good. But for an industrial-style interior, it's not very eye-catching. In her Stalin-era apartment project, designer Eugenia Razuvayeva used a water pipe instead of a standard railing – see how stunning it looks!

3. Paint Walls and Doors in the Same Color

You don't have to follow the golden rule of small apartment design and make everything dazzlingly white. Better paint, as Nina Zотовa did, walls and doors in the same vibrant marsala color – expand space and make life brighter.

4. Arrange Books with Spines Facing Inward

In her clients' apartment, designer Olga Chernenko placed a large library and cleverly used books as decoration by arranging them with spines facing inward. Of course, it's less convenient to find the right book now, but the interior looks really cool.

6. Colored Grout

Designers at UD Base created a truly vibrant two-bedroom apartment: blue, red, emerald, and even yellow in the bathroom. Colored grout is a bold and trendy technique – the key is to make even joints!

7. Mint Walls in the Bedroom

The apartment owner wanted to create a bright and aesthetic space in neoclassical style. With the help of designers from 'Wolfovich Studio', pastel shades appeared in the interior: lilac, sky blue, and finally soft mint – a winning color.

8. Drawing Wallpaper

In the children's room, designer Sofia Petrukhina designated one wall for inevitable child creativity by covering it with paintable wallpapers. Why forbid a child from drawing on the walls when you can draw together? By the way, the silhouette of a house in the headboard can also be painted.

9. Flower Print Wallpaper Near the Headboard

Designer Galina Yuryeva decided that a small apartment is not a death sentence. It shouldn't be white and boring. Walls were painted in bright and vivid yellow, and flower-patterned decals were used as accents – budget-friendly and original.

10. Hanging Chair on the Balcony

How to make an apartment as cozy as a country house? For example, hang a comfortable chair on the balcony that strongly resembles garden swings.
