Imitation of wood on the wall in the interior – an unusual design element
In the modern world, values are constantly changing, as is the understanding of beauty. More than a hundred years ago, high ceilings, windows and doors, floral wallpapers and paintings in heavy frames were in vogue. Now the beautiful is not always expensive, easy to manufacture and often replaced – tired, faded or broken – throw it out.
The trees are beautiful, but we often don’t notice it. If you remove greenery from cities, they will become terribly uncomfortable. And we strive to parks and forests for a reason – we rest there. Scientists have proven that all asymmetrical objects calm our psyche. These include clouds, flowers and any plants, trees. Even unnatural, drawn.

But not the forest, the forest in the photo wallpaper remained in vogue a couple of decades ago..
