A switch with a backlight and an intercom with a handset: what other morally obsolete items are worth saying goodbye to

Due to the rapid passage of time, rapidly changing accents in interior design, many things that were quite relevant ten years ago now seem hopelessly outdated.

The list of such items was compiled by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino .

Switch with backlight

All that a bright red or neon blue switch can do is to irritate the apartment's residents and attract the attention of their guests. Moreover, if you, contrary to common sense, decide to install such switches in the bedroom, be prepared for your peaceful sleep to be disturbed.

Modern models of switches can be recognized by their stylish and laconic design and the absence of unnecessary “bells and whistles”.

Intercom with handset

An intercom like this, the handset of which has long since turned yellow, is unlikely to add gloss to your hallway. Instead, take a closer look at modern solutions that, in addition to everything else, are equipped with a number of other useful functions, for example, the ability to adjust the volume or choose a ringtone.

Battery screen

Decorative screens, behind which heating devices are hidden, firstly, look bulky, and secondly, eat up some of the precious heat if they are installed incorrectly.

The way out of this situation is seen in the installation of modern products that do not need to be hidden, or new types of screens – for example, made of glass.
