I have
really looked for a subject for my next post, something special I could I tell, which
theme would be interesting to raise up? Looking through the web-sites I saw a
pair of interesting pictures with famous
TV shows interiors. It gave me the idea
of creating series of posts about the interiors from a TV screen.And of course, I'll start with my favorite
TV-show - "Sex and the City".
I was attracted to the story itself: a girl's life in the big city, things that surround her in her apartment and
outside of it and their interaction with
the subjects of her personal style in
clothes. Carey Bradshaw’s story inspires me and I often watch some
episodes over and over again just to be able to see an interesting collection
of clothing, interior decoration or amusing situations, dreaming and imagining
of my own life on the day when I will move to my own place.
As time went
on, Carey's interiors began to change. I found my
perfect interior for life and TV screen and you can see it in the first "Sex
and the City" movie. But I should tell you how I see the major interior evolution.
In the first episodes Cary’s apartment was an excellent example of a free
woman living environment.
Abundance of small decorative elements, patterns spaced randomly,
magazines and books scattered, cosmetics, vases, clothes, all this makes it
really feminine. You feel life In this interior, the life of the personage, her
creative soul.
The
interior lives and changes together with
Carey, which reinforces the perception of the realism of this place.
Looking at the desktop you can see that she works at home, and you can guess that she was a writer seeing the number of books on it. She didn't like very modern things much at that moment, her
interior is filled with vintage of 50's as she feels comfortable and cozy among
her things, even old ones. But after some time she decided to paint the kitchen
and replace the flooring . And despite her attachment to things, she has a delicate taste and if she decides to
change something we feel her style
and character in those changes...
Layout of
the apartment deserves our special attention. This is an one-bedroom apartment with three
windows facing the street, a small kitchen, a combined sanitary unit and a
decent wardrobe. Apartment is quite spacious and has an interesting layout with
the kitchen in the center, which is conveniently located not far from the front
door.
I’ll never forget the Carey phrase about her dressing room and the fact
that its doors are always open: "If
a robber breaks into my house, I will hear it, and while he would go into the living
room, I'll go through the dressing room into the bathroom and run out at the door there, it is very
convenient."
Events developed, life went on. Carey grew up and her interior was growing up with
her. In the movie, we were shown how the design of her apartment has been
changed. That exactly became my
inspiration.
Main change - the color of the walls. And of
course this color went into the treasury
of ideas for my apartment. It fits perfectly with the purple accessories of different tints,
white cornice and plinth only emphasize the beauty and richness of the
colors .
Design armchairs, lamps and carpets came to
replace the furniture from flea markets and that’s why interior became more
refined and sophisticated.

I can really spend hours to study this interior, its colors, furniture
... Learn and be inspired by such a bright example.

Definitely, I'll find a
place for similar color solutions in my future apartment... |
Many people
would think that the new interior doesn't fit with the personage. But as for
me, it is much more in line with her new
status and her style. She grew up and her interior grew up with her. There isn't place of clutter that has been accumulated
over the years anymore.

All you need is love... |
She has
grown up spiritually and easily says goodbye to the past. And that by my opinion is something everyone should learn. Why we keep things that
has been broken long time ago and not
being used? This all is just old clutter
and we need to learn how to get rid of all those old and unnecessary things.
So go to
the wardrobes and shelves, disassemble tem, throw away everything to make room for something new. This advice
can be useful to both - the interior and personal life. Get rid of this "grandmother" idea that
you’ll may need to use one of those old
things once. Forget it! If
you didn't find how to use it during so many past years it really means that
this thing isn't necessary. Nowadays there is no problem finding something new. Besides, the choice is huge, so: be bold
and don't hold on the old!
