8 outdated stereotypes about coziness that don't fit with modern interiors
Habit is good, but not always. For example, in the arrangement of a dwelling, it will not be relevant. After all, many people are accustomed to a certain environment and change it with great difficulty. However, all spheres of human life are developing, and this has affected real estate, including the arrangement of the premises.
One can single out such stereotypes in the decoration of the premises, which have already become obsolete.
1. Furniture along the walls. This is a boilerplate style of furniture placement. It has long been outdated. Of course, this method can save a lot of space, but it is better to sacrifice space than beauty. You should not follow someone's illusions, but rather create your own style.
2. Bedroom set. You should not purchase a standard set consisting of a bed and a bedside table. This setting would be appropriate in a hotel, but not at home. It is better to buy different furniture or even refuse some items. So the interior will be more original and modern.
3. Bathroom tiles.
The bathroom has always been tiled. This is not surprising, because such a material is able to withstand moisture and is very easy to maintain. However, there are now many other materials that can replace standard tiles. For example, there are panels that look like natural stone, wood or concrete. As a last resort, if you do not want to give up the tile, then you can choose it in non-standard sizes and shapes.4. A comfortable sofa can only be large. Today, many still have the idea that a rich and comfortable sofa should have large armrests and fanciful upholstery. However, simplicity is already in vogue, especially if the room is small.
5. White walls can only be in a hospital. This stereotype has long been outdated. When choosing furniture of the right shades, as well as placing accents on certain details, a white wall will only add space and light to the room.
6. The table and chairs should be of the same style. In Soviet times, furniture was bought in whole sets. However, today this is an outdated stereotype. The market is filled with different models of furniture, and therefore you should not limit yourself in your choice.
7. If for children, then be sure to bright. Many people make the nursery a bright, sometimes even flashy room. However, psychologists believe this is not the right decision. Especially if the child is under three years old. In this case, and even in the presence of an older child, the shades in his room should be made calm. In general, the room should have pastel colors.
8. Window must be covered with curtains. Despite the fact that the curtains give the room coziness, it is better to refuse them. This is no longer in vogue. As a last resort, there are many alternatives to this piece of furniture.
Each person decides for himself what is beautiful, cozy and comfortable for him. However, you can grow and develop only by keeping up with the times, and not clinging to the remnants of the vulgar.
