Modern interior design with bas-relief
Bas-relief is used quite often in modern design today, and the reason for this is the increasing interest in the once-forgotten classical design of rooms. In them, the bas-relief was an important design detail. However, the technique of bas-relief compositions offers such a variety that it can be concisely entered into almost any design and style.
With the help of a bas-relief, you can try to develop the main theme of the interior that is used in the house, brighten the desired direction in a separate room, and correctly distribute the main accents. If you use the bas-reliefs of the living room, you can get a front room, make it solemn. Using such decor elements in the bedroom, you can create an intimate atmosphere, and in the corridor some kind of illusory movement. All this unites, changes the overall impression and allows you to create a mood.
Pros and cons of using a bas-relief
Usually, for the manufacture of a bas-relief, it is used:
- clay;
- wood;
- gypsum or alabaster;
- stone.
Working with stone is the most difficult thing. It is important that the sculptor has a lot of experience and is a good master of his craft, because. errors cannot be corrected in such work. Carving is required to create a bas-relief from wood, and clay bas-reliefs are easier to make, even a beginner can work with them. Many studied modeling at school. Unlike sculptures, bas-reliefs allow you to maintain a scale of 1:1 and also save on the materials used.
Since, for example, clay for sculpting a human figure will require 60-70% less than for creating a full-fledged statue.Previously, all ceilings and walls were decorated with reliefs, while maintaining the overall composition. Today, for the manufacture of small bas-reliefs, a canvas stand can be used, which will allow you to move the product from one room to another, if necessary.
A few recommendations
If the sculptor intends to create a large bas-relief, then he should use wire to maintain its stability. The frame will help simplify the modeling. From above, the bas-relief can be covered with water-based paint or primer. For alabaster, this coating will help to give gloss; for fragile plaster or gypsum, it will create protection. When working, stacks should be used to create small parts.
