Short board effect and Diderot effect in decoration

There is no perfect business in the world, and the decoration is the same, there will always be a shortcoming. But the small flaws and the big mistakes made in a mess are after all two things. To avoid making big mistakes in decoration, you should pay attention to the short board effect and the Diderot effect.

Use a pile of wooden boards of different lengths to make a wooden barrel. The volume of the wooden barrel depends on the shortest piece. This is the so-called "short board effect" of the "barrel theory."

As far as decoration is concerned, the "short board effect" generally refers to two levels:

More than a dozen materials are used for decoration. When choosing a variety of materials, you should pay attention to the "door to door" - quality and style match. If one of the materials is of poor quality or does not conform to the style, this material will cause a "short board effect." For example: the bathroom uses brand-name quality bathroom facilities, but the ceiling is made of cheap plastic buckles. The level of such decoration is determined by the "short board" of the buckle. On the level of style, the floor is paved with expensive and heavy teak flooring, while the furniture is modern-style panel furniture, like black shiny dress shoes with jeans. This effect will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, the decoration must pay attention to the use of materials and style, the premise is to find a good benchmark. Otherwise, it is easy to stray into the other extreme - the "Dedro effect" - a chain reaction that is too particular to match but is caused by improper selection of benchmarks and sequences. For example, someone bought an advanced DVD player, in order to play its function, put on a rear-projection large color TV, and then equipped with an AV sound system, then found that an audio-visual room is needed, and finally Because of this DVD, I bought a new house for renovation... Our suggestion is: pay attention to avoiding the short board effect, find the benchmark and order to avoid the Diderot effect: make sure to decorate the large floor, furniture and bathroom The grades, categories and styles, after matching each other, determine other materials. As mentioned above, the decoration should avoid the "short board effect" and the "Dedro effect". Taking the combination of furniture and flooring as an example, in addition to the color aspect, it is more important to coordinate the category and style. For example, pine furniture or panel furniture with teak flooring is not appropriate. The valuable solid wood flooring such as teak should be equipped with expensive solid wood furniture.

Therefore, in order, you should first determine the intensified categories and styles. If you decide to buy panel furniture (that is, furniture made of MDF or particleboard and then veneer), then the laminate flooring is a reasonable match, with precious wood. The floor will cause a "short board effect." On the other hand, if you use solid wood furniture other than pine furniture, the ideal combination should be solid wood flooring.

If there is solid wood in the decoration budget, it should give priority to solid wood furniture. Solid wood furniture can be moved or sold, and it can be preserved or even appreciated. But the installed solid wood flooring will not work. We have seen old furniture or antique furniture stores. Who has seen the floor that was sold and removed?

In short, the principle of considering the matching with furniture when selecting the floor color is: either choose the nearest one, or choose the contrast and contrast.
