When choosing furniture and accessories for the interior, we should feel inspired and happy, but after talking to some sellers, there is nothing left but a twitching eye.

According to designer Yulia Tychino , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, sometimes there is a feeling that stores do not follow fashion trends and are trying to sell goods that have long been out of place in stylish interiors.

Fluffy carpets with long pile

In recent years, carpets have become not only a practical interior element that helps to retain heat and provide sound insulation, but also an important decorative detail. They serve to place accents, unite all interior elements into a single composition and create a cozy atmosphere.

However, carpets with long pile, especially in houses with small children and pets, can cause their owners certain difficulties in maintenance. In this regard, the popularity of carpets made of natural fibers of medium length, such as jute, is growing. Such carpets are not only more practical, but also give the interior a stylish look, and also add elements of eco-style to it.

Massive furniture made of artificial materials

Modern interiors prefer simplicity, lightness and free space, so heavy furniture is becoming a rarity in apartments, although not all upholstered furniture sellers agree with this.

Despite the assurances of those who want to sell off over-inflated sofas with large velour or faux leather armrests, Chesterfields, carriage chairs and other similar furniture, it must retire. The same, by the way, applies to the voluminous wall panels often found in bedrooms.

Curtains with lambrequins

Such textiles can make any apartment look old, even if it is decorated in accordance with the latest fashion trends. Moreover, thick curtains, especially if they are combined with tulle, visually reduce the room.
