There is now complete freedom of fashion in interiors, so even grandma’s sofa can become the main accent of the room.

But there are things that can make the best interior tasteless. And not even because the thing itself is tasteless. It's just used incorrectly.

Experts advise paying attention to the most common examples that can ruin the entire impression of the interior.

Furniture flea market

First of all, you should get rid of furniture on which a lot of things accumulate by themselves, making the interior cluttered and tasteless.

This is the notorious chair for clothes, shelves with an abundance of knickknacks, a chest of drawers on which coins, stationery, jewelry, etc. are always lying around. It is difficult to discipline yourself and not to throw clothes on the chair. But if there is no chair, you will have to hang your coat on a hanger and your blouse in the closet. Therefore, experts recommend removing "tempting" furniture.

For example, instead of several unnecessary shelves and a chest of drawers, it is advisable to buy a spacious closed closet in which you can store all the things that are usually in plain sight. As a result, the house will look spacious and neat.

Unnecessary things

Before buying furniture and decor, think about whether you really need them. Often people buy things just because it is customary. As a result, the house is filled with things that are not used, which makes the interior unnatural, making it tasteless. The very coziness and individuality that give the room a unique charm disappears.

Buy only what is actually used for its intended purpose, otherwise your home will resemble a store where things are just there to be available.

This recommendation applies not only to furniture, but also to decor. Decor that the owner of the house does not like, does not reflect his character, interests and hobbies, and becomes just a tasteless trinket.

Disproportionate furniture

It is important to consider the four elements of stylish design: integrity, functionality, size, proportion. What is ideal for a large house looks tasteless in a small apartment.

When arranging a small room, it is important to plan the space correctly without overloading it.

You should use every corner rationally, choose roomy and multifunctional furniture, paying attention to the dimensions before purchasing.

A bulky leather sofa in a two-room apartment will look ridiculous, no matter how high-quality and expensive it is. But a light, elegant sofa on legs will fit perfectly into a limited space.
