15. Decorative hangings to go with the season
from:All through time, when we look through history, wall hangings, carpets, flags and other decorative hangings have adorned the walls of both homes as well as commercial spaces. There’s no better way to cheaply and thoroughly change the look and feel of your home according to season than by going the decorative hanging route. Decorative hangings may be suspended from either the ceiling or from walls so they’re very versatile to work with. These also come in various types and may be themed for the season by going with some sort of color method or by regional identification.
Changing decorative hangings according to the color based on its choice depending on the season; is the simplest way to go about selecting and changing the decorative hangings within your home. While a summer color would be light, the entire effect of the decorative hanging would be to give a cooling effect to the space where it’s been hung. It may also be important to keep in mind the kind of material the decoration is made of (for example, it would not do to have a decorative hanging that is deep in color and rich in texture during the summer months, but it would be ideal to have one of these around the winter months when it would absorb light and make the ambient space look a lot more cozy_). Also, the patterns of the decoration and its design may add or take away from the feel of the home. So, it’s important to take a good look at the design and verify that it would suit the home during the particular season.
The other method to go about selecting and placing a decorative wall or ceiling hanging would be to select the region it comes from. It would be prudent to have a decoration that provides a Mediterranean effect within your space at home during the summer months, so that there’s the sense of ‘cool’ and openness. However, a thicker more lush carpet (that may be used in the Balkan regions) would be apt for decoration during the winter months of cold.
You must also consider the size of the hanging. It’s better to go with a smaller hanging on the wall to give a minimalistic appearance during the summer months. The cooler months would require your hanging to be larger and more light absorbing.
Through the centuries, decorative hangings have been used with the effect of blocking out the cold from creeping in through the walls or to provide adequate buoyancy (the effect of happiness) to the living spaces. Decorative hangings, through a mix of color, design, size and texture; provide a home with the appropriate degree of seasonal change. Design especially could imply a season or the change between seasons.
