If you are thinking about updating the interior of your own home, learn in advance about the pitfalls that can make a fresh renovation a source of disappointment.

According to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino , the first thing that over time begins to cause irritation is a hidden baseboard painted with matte paint.

Undoubtedly, such a solution looks aesthetically pleasing and harmonious, but cleaning rooms equipped with hidden skirting boards is not a pleasure.

An ordinary skirting board, unlike its brother, is very easy to clean from dirt and dust.

Another trendy interior element that can be found more and more often in the kitchen is the kitchen island.

Despite all its practicality, it is unfortunately not capable of becoming an equivalent replacement for a dining table - you are unlikely to be able to seat many people at the island and provide comfort to your guests.

In addition, kitchen islands usually do not have enough storage space, which makes kitchen clutter almost inevitable.

Finally, we can’t help but mention in this list a wall-hung toilet without access to utilities – a toilet installed on the floor is much easier to service or replace.
