Ornament meander in the interior

Meander is a variant of the orthogonal ornament, which is a composition of a stylized image of a wave. A continuous line is created by right angles. Of all the patterns, this is considered one of the most ancient. Already at the time of the Paleolithic people depicted such drawings. They considered the meander to be magical. The wave seemed to them symbols of eternity and virtue, the course of life.

With the help of the meander, household items, textiles and clothes were originally decorated. In architecture, it began to be used later.

There are several varieties of such an ornament today, but at the same time, the classic version is most often used in interiors, since it is it that is the most universal of all.

It is ornaments in the interior that sometimes become an element that supports the entire style. They give a complete and harmonious look. Any ornament should be combined with style, it should be used only sparingly. In the lining of pools and baths, this version of the ornament looks especially organically, as it is associated with water. If the floor or walls are tiled, the meander may be the only decor. It will be quite enough. The meander cannot be adjacent to other bright ornaments. He does not need any additions, this is a self-sufficient and quite bright element in itself. Only on the wave of the meander should all emphasis be made if a decision is made to use it in the interior.

But at the same time, it is important that the fabric is expensive and of high quality, since this ornament will not advantageously look on materials with excessive gloss or frankly cheap. Not only soft, but also other furniture can decorate the meander. It can be applied using thread or painting. Only owners make a choice in favor of one or another option.
