Interior Design For Living Rooms

interior design images online for project?
I just started an interior design class. Our first project is to find an interior space(I chose living rooms) we think is poorly designed . And one we think is a well designed space. Where can I find magazine type images online? I tried google but it isn’t really working well.
Thanks!
Try going to the DIY and HGTV websites where you will find examples of room makeovers that you can use if you print them on photo paper. You can also check the Home and Gardens website, Sunset, Architectural Digest, Metropolitan home or any of the other design magazines.

Emotional Rooms $0.27 Emotional Spaces is a book to inspire and motivate homeowners to design spaces that reflect their values and emotions, and as a consequence, make them the most comfortable. This book can help you to prevent the common mistakes that homeowners make when they: – buy the best piece of furniture or an item without regard to how well it works in the space- choose looks that impress others rather than consider what really reflect their tastes and values- work against the architecture and natural environment of the space- design by floor plan rather than room-by-room This is not a step-by-step, how-to kind of interior design book but rather a visual and written essay articulating a way to approach making your living abode a beautiful and inspiring home. The text is organized around the elements that are most important in designing Emotional Spaces: – architecture- color- furniture- lighting This is not a book of rules, but rather a guide to the sound principles of design. For example, deep dark colors can work wonderfully in a room that lacks natural light. Room with an abundance of natural light can be made more brilliant with light colors. Emotion is a better guide than intellect in creating an environment. Consider furniture for its shape, color and feel, not its pedigree. They become individual sculptures that you arrange in a space. The negative spaces between objects are just as important as the objects themselves. |

Open House: Unbound Space and the Modern Dwelling $4.39 At the beginning of the twentieth century, a new vision of architectural space was born, made possible to new construction techniques that eliminated the need for interior load-bearing walls. Developed concurrently with Picasso’s cubist paintings and Einstein’s theories of quantum physics, the new architecture manifested itself most emblematically with the open plan: physically and visually free-flowing spaces. Modern architects broke free from spatial constraints and traditional limits to design houses that were unbound, dynamic, and open. The freedom afforded by the open plan, however, emcompassed philosophical and social freedom as well as physical. The first half of this book explores the spatial and social evolution of the open plan. From Frank Lloyd Wright’s early prairie houses to Mies van der Rohe’s universal structural grid, architects eliminated self-contained rooms, combined living spaces and discarded traditional social and familial constraints to open up the house. In the 1950′s, especially in California, residential architecture began to blur the distinction between inside and outside. Windows were replaced by glass walls in houses designed by Rudolf Schindler, Richard Neutra, and Oscar Niemeyer, offering their inhabitants casual, free-flowing floor plans and seamless integration of exterior and interior spaces. Today, the free plan, and in turn the open house, has taken yet another turn as a new generation of architects takes up the reigns of modernism. As seen in diverse contemporary projects such as Shigeru Ban’s minimalist retreat in Japan, or LOT/EK’s industrial vernacular duplex in New York, the modern open plan house is clearly alive and well. Twelveprojects by today’s leading international architects, including Pritzker Prize winner Glen Murcutt, Patkau Architects, Ben van Kerkel and Caroline Bos, Wes Jones, Daly Genik, and Kuth/Ranieri are showcased in full-page color photographs to illustrate the enduring relevance and formal variety |

Perfect Country Cottage $17.5 With inspirational photographs paired with practical information, this is the perfect book on decorating the exterior and interior of a country cottage. Offering a delightful escape to the simple country life, The Perfect Country Cottage includes lively photographs of small country houses from Cornwall to Maine, from Scandinavia to Greece, making it an essential companion for everyone wanting to decorate and style a country retreat. Chapters focus not only on interiors spaces—kitchens, living rooms, and bedrooms—but also on exterior spaces such as flower and vegetable gardens, patios, and decks. Exterior details are fully explored, and close attention is given to topics special to decorating a country cottage, such as soft furnishings, floors, painted furniture, architectural details, garden furniture and storage. In addition, the author, who specializes in country buildings, traces the evolution of the country cottage from simple farmworkers’ dwellings to modern rural oases from hectic urban life. Other Details: 175 full-color illustrations 144 pages 9 1/2 x 9 1/2″ Published 1994machine, the 17th-century French queen Marie Antoinette eschewed the glitz of Versailles Palace life for the pseudo-country style of Le Hameau. Across the channel in England, William Morris’ contempt for conspicuous consumption and opulent artificiality brought about the Arts and Crafts movement, and a renewed appreciation of hand-crafted furniture and fittings. At the end of the twentieth century, individual craftspeople are once more in demand, among them woodturners, carpenters and stonemasons. At the same time, many exterior vernacular features such as half-timbering, dormer windows, half-hipped roofs, country kitchens and ledge-and-brace doors have become standard elements in the design of countless housing estates. The cottage tradition lives on. Cottages and the Landscape Why does a Cumbrian cottage with its black stone and green slate roof differ |

Practically Minimal $1.99 Minimalist elegance has been a constant theme in interior design for decades. But this manner of living need not mean ascetic white-walled rooms stripped of decoration and accented with rectilinear furniture and hard surfaces. Rather, today’s essential interior is defined by sumptuous materials, deep textures, and striking colors. A host of designers and architects around the world have taken the minimalist vocabulary—whether it be that of the Modern progenitors, Japanese essentialists, or the more recent absolutists—and imbued their interiors with innovative twists. No longer content with the search for hard-edged purity (which often conceals extravagant expense), contemporary designers enhance, exaggerate, and extrapolate pared-down minimalism within reasonable budgets. The spaces they create are flexible, livable, and practical, artfully combining the beauty and spirituality of minimalism with an exuberant love of exotic woods and metals, playful or mysterious forms, and a respect for natural light, clean lines, and easy living. Drawing on the best interiors from around the world, created by a wide range of architects, designers, and residents themselves, Practically Minimal focuses on five themes that define the flexible modern lifestyle: living and relaxing, cooking and dining, sleeping, bathing, and outdoor rooms. A final section, Elements, is a rich visual resource of details of the new minimalism, from stairs and storage, to materials and textures, to lighting and plants. 200 color illustrations. |
