House Karkkainen interior design

A different system of living has been evolved during the last twenty years, due to the development of transport. This means that no family now lives in the largest house it can afford, but in the smallest which will contain it. To make it easier to live in a small space a new kind of design in furniture, based on the possibility of simpler design provided by the new materials, came into existence. As it was a radical change and not simply a difference in fashion it became the object of attack from all sides. This attack, which was directed on aesthetic grounds, obscured the basic change that had brought the new furniture, and which called for the elimination of everything useless. This clearing is now apparent everywhere and many people who think they have made a perfect period room have really planned a modern room using period furniture. The room contains, in fact, nothing superfluous. In planning a room, therefore, include only the essential, and after the background and the lighting are settled—at least provisionally—begin to consider the furniture that will be needed. more pictures
