There is old furniture in the apartment, but you don’t want to throw it away: a designer told what to do in such a situation
There are many types of furniture that have long gone out of fashion.
Perhaps the most striking example is the wall unit, which was extremely popular in Soviet times.
Several decades ago, such a set would have looked normal in an apartment.
But now the sections clearly spoil the appearance of the interior, making it outdated and tasteless.
Many people solve the problem in the following way: they simply throw away the Soviet furniture set in order to put modern and stylish furniture in its place.
However, Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti in the field of design and interior design, emphasizes: a furniture wall unit that has gone out of fashion does not necessarily have to be sent to the landfill.
What to do with furniture
If you feel sorry to get rid of the old furniture or if you don’t have money for new furniture, then you can update the sections.
And it’s very easy to do: just cover the cabinets with paint.
As a result, the unsightly brown set will turn into plain white furniture that has a rather modern appearance.
You can also use paint of any other color. The main thing is that the updated furniture matches well with other items and decorates the interior, rather than spoiling it.
