Hi-tech style is characterised by high technologies, pragmatism in space planning, constructability, maximum functionality, strictness and simplicity of constructions: straight lines, pure light colours, wide application of glass, plastics, metal and concrete.
Here the practically complete absence of décor is compensated by “the work of texture”: Effects of light on glass, shining of chrome-plated and metallic surfaces. In addition, uncovered brick and various modern synthetic materials, communications and metal constructions, and staircases outside a building can be added. There is de-centred lighting, which creates an effect of a spacious and well-illuminated premise.
For curtains in Hi-Tech style, the latest fabrics with atypical textures, metallised filaments and laser slotting can be used, made with applications of decorative parts of metal, leather, fur and fastening on ring plates, strings or hinge straps, etc. The covering form is free.
Standard features of Hi-Tech:
- prevailing colours: white, grey, black, silver-metallic, as well as saturated pure colours – red, green and yellow;
- usage of straight lines and simple figures;
- clearness and geometry of forms;
- use of high technologies.
