Bad Home Design Trends That Are on Their Way Out

In the ever-evolving world of home design, trends come and go—and what was once considered stylish can quickly become outdated, or worse, tacky! As a homeowner, the last thing you should want is a design or color scheme that is woefully obsolete. Fortunately, a team of professional painters can help transform your space and bring it up to date. Continue reading below to learn about a few design trends that are on their way out, along with a few fresh and modern ideas to liven up your home!

Trends That Are on Their Way Out

Here are a few trends that have seen their time in the spotlight and are now considered outdated by most modern designers:

·        Popcorn ceilings – Once a popular choice for their acoustic properties, popcorn ceilings have fallen out of favor due to their dated appearance and difficulty in keeping clean.

·        Dated wallpaper – While wallpaper can add texture and visual interest to a room, outdated patterns can make a space feel somewhat stuck in the past, especially if they’re overly busy.

·        Animal prints – Cowhides, zebra rugs, and other animal prints used to give rooms exotic flair back in the ‘70s, but these days they tend to look a little cheesy rather than worldly.

·        Monochromatic color schemes – While monochromatic color schemes can create a sense of harmony, they can make a room feel flat, uninspired, and even a little gloomy.

·        All whites and grays – It’s true that white and gray are two of the most versatile colors, but these days, homeowners are shifting away from these stark options in favor of cozier choices.

·        Nautical motifs – It’s time to set sail from this trend that includes navy-and-white inspired décor and beach-themed vibes. Or at least relegate it to smaller rooms.

·        Terrazzo – Though it might not seem like Terrazzo is totally out, it’s safe to say that it’s one of the most faddish options in recent years and will probably entirely fade out of style soon.
