Beautiful Restaurant Interior Design

Pio Pio restaurant is a beautiful culinary destination in New York City, located in the Hell’s kitchen district of Manhattan between 34th and 57th streets. Pio Pio restaurant has beautiful interior with natural style, its a combination between the Mexican Restaurant and the Latin American Culture.
Touching more on emotions in the environment and juxtaposition of space rather than literal cultural elements.

Built using multi-different materials such as steel and glass, the wood and concrete serve a visual and tactile queue to something new, attracting passersby into the space. Its silent, yet distinct sense of arrival serves as an example of how design can speak without the overt use use of typography and graphics (if done correctly).

Minimalist House with Concrete Frame

Slit House is located in historical neighborhood in Nanjing, China. Even though it has very contemporary minimalist look it’s in harmony with surroundings. The entire structure, facade and the roof are made of concrete. It’s one of the first concrete buildings in this area. Thanks to such exterior it looks minimalist and modern outside.

The interior is mostly done in wood to be more comfortable to live in. There are two connected areas with half floor height difference. The living area has 2 floor ceiling height while the dining area has only 1.5 floor ceiling height. There aren’t many openings around the house in order to maintain its privacy.

Home Interior Decorating Ideas

Interior decorating for quite some time has been a concept or task left to the interior decorator. But because people nowadays are becoming more and more aware and involved in the interior decorating aspects of their homes, there are many homeowners that are forced into adopting their own interior decorating techniques and processes.

Home or interior decorating, as wrongly perceived by people ages ago, need not be expensive and need not requiring degrees and diplomas in the discipline. Overall, the idea behind interior decorating is going for the basic or going for the simple. Being interiorly designed and comfortable, a home does not need to be really equipped with the most expensive devices and equipment.

Remember, the basic idea of interior decorating is functionality and usage. It is to be put above all, above the aesthetic and beauty of the home. Interior decorating of homes can be as simple as one, two, three. Here are some practical and very simple solution on how the interior design of your home could be improved and boosted.

1. Free up spaces. Throw away unnecessary items and equipment. 
2. Old equipment that already obsolete or useless should already put to retirement. 
3. The storage room is the room for decorations that are not in season or timely. 
4. Christmas decors should be kept out it is already March. 
5. Make the home spacious by freeing it from useless materials and equipment. 
6. Huge sofas and tables are also a no-no if the space of your home is already limited.
7. Put out all the small figurines and picture frames that are distracting the atmosphere and scaring them, instead of awing and amusing them. Those are old-styles, the modern interior decoration go for less displays. Less is totally more this time.
8. Consider replacing carpets, or putting one in the living room if there is not already one in place. That would provide for a cozy atmosphere.
9. The kitchen should be clean and well-lighted because it is the most important area in the house. It should be painted with light to even darker colors to make up for a more appetizing atmosphere.
10. The bathroom should still be spacious. Remember functionality, uses are more than aesthetics.
11. Interior designing a house need not be really tedious. Just follow your instinct and remember, functions come ahead of beauty.
