First, the characteristics of modern American furniture
1, the United States is an immigrant country, which is formed by the integration of various European countries. Furniture contains many European national elements, including the classic British Queen Anne style, modern British mission elements, baroque style of French Louis XIV, Rococo style of Louis XV, neoclassical style of Louis XVI, and elements of Germany, Italy and the West. So these elements were finally integrated in the United States.
2. American furniture combines the lifestyle brought by immigrants from European countries and integrates several styles, functions and decorations. Most European-style furniture is tall and magnificent. Like European-style buildings, there are gold and silver, and only the royal family can afford it. Then American furniture will make such royal furniture popular, the tall and magnificent style will still be preserved, but the material will be natural solid wood, and Europeans will pay attention to the details, but it will not be too ostentatious.
Americans are people who enjoy life, so the design of furniture is relatively comfortable. Sitting on it, I forgot all the work pressure of a week, opened the door, went home, put on casual clothes, casually lay down on the sofa, took a newspaper, had a cup of coffee, watched TV, had dinner with my family, and completely returned to the natural life. Therefore, the randomness and comfort of American furniture are its greatest characteristics. Unlike European furniture, it feels like a real home, not the feeling of still returning to a five-star hotel or office.
Second, modern American furniture purchase skills
1, you must measure the size in advance when buying furniture. Furniture occupies a relatively large area and controls the size proportion of American furniture. Generally speaking, it is appropriate for American furniture to occupy about 40% of the home area, and the rest can also be placed in other essential appliances in the home, such as refrigerators.
Pay attention to the characteristics of home environment when buying any furniture. For example, children at home, the glass door on the low cabinet should prevent children from being hurt, and it is best to re-select the wooden door. If the humidity at home is high, it is not appropriate to use modern American furniture with corners. The air where the home is located has a high dust content, and the furniture needs to be cleaned frequently. Choosing concise and lively can reduce your workload. If the light at home is dim, you can choose light-colored modern American furniture.
When buying furniture, we should not only pay attention to the style, but also have great practicability. Many people like to buy that tall combination cabinet because it can make full use of vertical space. But such a "modern" home is the easiest to go out of date. Buying modern American furniture pays the most attention to the practicality of furniture, not just the style. After all, no matter how red the furniture is, it must meet the needs of life.
4. Pay attention to the size when buying American furniture, and avoid bumping when handling. The most troublesome process of furniture is handling. Although the owner does not need to contribute his own money, it is inevitable that bumps will occur during the handling process. An enthusiastic owner gave a good suggestion: the longest diagonal of furniture should not be greater than the largest diagonal at the corner of passage or stairs. So when you buy modern American furniture, you should pay attention to its size.
5. The most important point is the need for matching. It is most necessary to pay attention to the color and style of furniture and the overall style of home decoration. To reflect the overall feeling of a home.
