Hallway - classic elegance
The entrance area is the business card of the apartment, so it is worth taking care of its festive look. This way you will feel the magic of the upcoming holidays from the threshold. The architect recommends placing decorations on the console.
- Classic decorations in gold and red tones, such as Christmas trees, stars or plants in pots (such as the star of Bethlehem), will be an excellent choice. Add elegant, minimalist gifts wrapped in paper with a subtle pattern and decorated with ribbons as a subtle yet eye-catching detail. It's worth adding a personalized touch, such as a handmade paper star, which will not only be a decoration, but also a family tradition, Monika Ordysinskaya advises.

Dining room - table setting ideas
This is the place where we spend the most time during the holidays. In the dining room we meet with loved ones and celebrate this special time of the year. How to decorate the Christmas table in an elegant style?
- Choose classic porcelain in light shades with touches of gold or red. Add sprigs of conifers, red berries and Christmas baubles as plate decorations. Opt for gold cutlery - it's a chic detail that fits the modern classic style, the designer explains.

In terms of lighting, the architect advises choosing gold candlesticks with slender white candles to set a warm, festive mood.
- For the central decorative element, choose ornaments that will emphasize the uniqueness of the moment, such as a decorative cake stand surrounded by spruce branches or a garland with delicate LED lights, Monika Ordysinskaya adds.

Bedroom - Christmas accent in a cozy way
The bedroom is a room we often forget about when preparing interiors for the holidays. However, it is worth ensuring that decorative elements are placed here as well.
- Add decorative pillows in Christmas colors, such as red and beige. In the photo we see a pillow with a red car motif with a Christmas tree, which gives a light, playful touch, the architect explains.

The designer also advises to stock up on a soft, beige imitation fur blanket. It's an item that perfectly fits the elegant but cozy character of the modern classic style.
- A paper tree on the bedside table or gold accents, such as lamps, will give the interior a classic chic feel. Avoid excess decoration to maintain harmony and elegant style," adds the designer from Decoroom studio.
