Pattern selection

When choosing images to create 3D images on the facades of a sliding wardrobe, it is important to consider the style in which the design of the room is made, as well as the color palette that prevails in it. Modern themes and motifs are suitable for rooms in the style of hi-tech, fusion. Floral ornaments are preferably used in rustic country, eco-style. The classic style can be complemented by the depiction of works of art, nature and others. Also for the styles of classic, modern or art deco, sandblasting ornaments are perfect.

Regarding the color scheme of photo printing, you should listen to the simple rules of design. For tiny rooms, it is better to opt for light colors in the design of the closet, which will visually give the space lightness. For spacious rooms, furniture with photo printing in bright and dark colors is quite suitable.

Avoid overly bright photos in the bedroom, where it is important to create an atmosphere of rest and relaxation. And too dull and nondescript drawings should not be used in the children's room. The design of such a room should develop the imagination of the baby, so it is best to prefer photo printing of your favorite cartoon character, funny animals. Do not forget about the age, gender of the child for whom the picture on the closet is selected. For a brave boy, images of ships, cars, planes are suitable, for a girl - a floral ornament, flowers and the like. Teenagers should choose more universal drawings: the image of cities, plants, animals, nature, works of art.

If the decision is made using a computer, do not forget that monitors can distort the real color cast. It is better to go to the store, where you can see the proposed image for photo printing on a specific piece of furniture.
