4 decorative tricks that definitely won't help make your apartment cozier: you'll feel like you're in a museum

If your goal is to make your home a place you want to come back to, you shouldn't focus on flashy, trendy interior items designed to attract attention.

Such details, according to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino , are not capable of creating a truly cozy home atmosphere.

Neon signs

Neon signs are more suitable for bars, restaurants and night clubs. If you place such decor in the bedroom or living room, it will interfere with your proper rest. If you are determined to get such a sign, hang it in the hallway or kitchen - where you are not going to relax. Another important condition: the decor should not be too large.

Lots of grey

Gray should be introduced into the interior with caution, as you risk making the room dull, joyless and sad. Use warm and bright shades in the interior together with gray.

Plaster heads

This element looks more appropriate in a museum or theater than in an apartment. White plaster heads rarely match the interior of a bedroom or living room. Another disadvantage is the limited number of such figures, which makes you feel like you have already seen such a head somewhere else.

You can, of course, add some originality to the head by painting it, but first think about whether it will suit the existing decor. Not every style will accept such unusual decor.

Items "under gold"

If you decide to add a gold element to the interior design, be prepared to spend a large amount of money on it - cheap "gold" items quickly lose their appearance and spoil the overall impression. Choose high-quality items of a noble shade, even if there are few of them, they will look luxurious.
