Antitrends-2022: 5 tasteless accessories in your home that you need to get rid of

What decor is outdated? Told in video

one Photo collage frame

A collage of several small format photo frames can be found in any interior store. The problem is that such small images get lost on the wall, and the frame itself looks disproportionately small compared to the objects surrounding it. The result is a sense of visual noise that spoils the interior.

How to do better

The best thing to do with your favorite photos is to print them in a large poster format (about 40-50 cm high), insert them into a minimalist frame and hang them on the wall. Film shots can be digitized, and images in not very high resolution can be converted to black and white and slightly corrected in a photo processing program. The result is a stylish and original accent for the interior.

2 decorated vase

Vases of complex ornate shape with golden painting and voluminous decorative elements hardly fit into modern interiors. They look outdated and visually heavy, which is why they do not go well with bouquets.

How to do better

Choose glass models of simple concise forms. Transparent or colored — if you want them to intersect with other accessories in the room. Then all attention will be paid to the plants in the vase.

3 Tablets with inscriptions

Signs with quotes about comfort, family and home are often hung on the walls when it is not very clear how to decorate a certain area (for example, a kitchen or a hallway). Or when there is a feeling that the interior is unfinished and does not evoke the desired emotions. But such decor usually does not add genuine comfort, but gets bored quickly, as this is already a hackneyed and outdated technique.

How to do better

Analyze the inscriptions that you like the most. This will help you understand what exactly you want to express with the help of decorations in the interior. For example, quotes about the family are chosen by those who want to create an atmosphere of a warm family hearth at home and unite households. In this case, it is better to use joint photos or holiday souvenirs instead of common phrases.

four Coffee themed decor

One of the most popular home decor themes is the coffee theme. Quotes about this drink, drawings of coffee beans or cups — you have already seen all this hundreds of times, and such decorations will quickly cease to please.

How to do better

If you want to express your love for coffee through the interior, it is better to purchase a home coffee station. Choose a good place for her, buy a beautiful professional coffee maker kit. Such a thematic corner will look aesthetically pleasing and elegant. Or set aside an open shelf for your favorite coffee cups or jars with your bean collection.

5 Funny towels and aprons

Towels with cartoon characters and aprons with realistic images of half-dressed people were at the peak of popularity in the early 2000s. Now this is a real anti-trend, which greatly cheapens the interior of the bathroom and kitchen.

How to do better

Plain textiles made from natural fabrics are a solution that always looks neat and stylish. If you want to create the effect of maximum visual unity, select all household textiles in the apartment in one color: for example, white, beige or gray.
