The idea involves emphasizing the purity of style, deliberate aggressiveness or dynamism of the design.
The European direction also provides for the use of the maximum free space, only, unlike the previous trend, the mixing of design styles is not a deviation.
In both directions, the starting materials for interior decoration are glass, metal and plastic. And yet glass is more preferable, in comparison with other materials, because it opens up endless possibilities for experiments.
