25 Things That Make Any House Feel Old and Outdated

Refresh These Passé Features

1/26

Some home design features from the past have a charm that makes them feel historic or vintage. Others? They haven't quite stood the test of time. A trend that was so ubiquitous in one particular decade that it instantly dates your home can be an instant giveaway that you haven’t renovated in decades. Of course, you may not care if your home is on trend. If you absolutely love a quirky feature, by all means keep it. If you're making changes to your home with resale value in mind, however, consider updating these old-school features.

Carpet Everywhere

2/26

There was a time when wall-to-wall carpeting was a luxurious must-have, but these days it’s all about hardwood. Although carpeting adds comfort underfoot and absorbs sound—which is especially important in bedrooms—consider upgrading to wood on the main floor of your home. Not only is it more in step with today's home trends, but it's more hygienic too.

Honey Oak Cabinets

3/26

A staple in kitchens of the 1980s and '90s, these golden-toned wood cabinets have fallen out of favor as white and gray cabinets have risen in popularity. If you don’t like your light-stained cabinets, but they’re in good shape, consider refinishing or painting what's there.

Beige Walls

4/26

It’s a subtle change, but as the neutral of choice has shifted to gray, warmer beiges—ones with undertones of pink, yellow, or peach—are starting to feel out of date. If gray is too cool for you, consider a greige (that’s gray plus beige), which is a light neutral with both cool (gray) and warm (brown) notes.

Popcorn Ceilings

5/26

This nubby treatment gave ceilings everywhere a textured look through the mid-20th century, but made it more difficult than it should be for anyone trying to clean cobwebs from the upper corners of a room. Despite their unpopularity, popcorn ceilings are still around today in lots of homes because removal of these ceilings, some of which contain asbestos, can be expensive, messy, and potentially detrimental to health.

Pastel Fixtures

6/26

Pastel pink and mint green toilets, tubs, sinks, and more were popular in the 1950s. If they’re still in your home, it's a clear sign that no one's remodeled since then. Before you renovate, be aware that these throwback materials are still popular among a certain set—why not try to find your old porcelain a new home?

Laminate Countertops

7/26

Popular in the 1960s and '70s for their durability and low price point, laminate countertops, particularly Formica, were a mark of pride. Though this countertop material is still a good, affordable option, it’s no longer as popular as natural or engineered stone countertops like marble, granite, and quartz.

Shiny Gold Fixtures

8/26

In the early 1990s, shiny brass faucets, light fixtures, and hardware were the norm, beloved for their flashy sheen. Though gold-toned hardware is on its way back into style, these newer designs are more muted in tone and feature rounded or geometrically inspired silhouettes instead of the clunky shapes of 20 years ago.

Dark Wood Paneling

9/26

Dark wood paneling was super popular in the 1960s and '70s. Today, while many homeowners have phased out dark and dreary walls in favor of neutral or brightly painted drywall, plenty of other homes still have 20th-century paneling in place. If your home still sports real wood paneling, consider bleaching or painting over it to update it. If, however, the walls are covered by sheets of faux-wood paneling, pull them off now!

Oversize Media Cabinets

Gone are the days when your TV was as deep as your sofa: In this era of flat-screen televisions that mount almost flush to the wall, no one needs a big ol’ cabinet to hold their technology. Pull that dinosaur out, already!

Chintz Wallpaper

11/26

A 19th-century staple that enjoyed a revival in the late 1980s and early '90s, this fussy floral wallpaper feels out of date today. Done right, it can add vintage flair to an eclectic space. Done wrong, it just looks like Grandma decorated your space (no offense, Gram).

Millennial Pink

12/26

This soft-hued pink was all the rage just a few years ago. As with any trend, millennial pink became old news once the design world selected new colors to obsess over. Paint over this passé shade with a timeless neutral tone, and avoid purchasing pricier furniture pieces in the color—save the millennial pink for decorative accents that you can easily replace.

Vertical Blinds 

13/26

They’re annoying to clean and even more irritating if you have pets, who seem to continuously dislodge the delicate blinds and leave them strewn on the floor. Replace the aggravating blinds with more fashionable window coverings, like airy curtains or farmhouse shutters. Not sure about the best fit for your windows? Many home decor stores now offer free in-home window treatment consultations.

Word Art and Wall Decals

14/26

Pop into a home decor shop or gift store and you no doubt will spot word art. Farmhouse style made simple phrases like “home,” “eat,” and “live, love, laugh,” emblazoned on wood signs the coolest form of wall decor. While the rustic aesthetic remains as popular as ever, its kitschy decor and decals have faded into the realm of basic platitudes.

Tile Countertops

15/26

Once popular in the ’70s, tile counters are a sure sign that your home needs an update. This type of countertop isn’t just visually unappealing, it’s also incredibly tough to clean properly—yet another reason to swap out your old countertops for an easier to maintain surface.

Wallpaper Borders

17/26

Wallpaper borders were a staple in the ’90s, mainly used as trim for the top or middle of the walls. A better way to jazz up your walls these days is to opt for a bright accent wall, stylish wallpapers, or crown molding.

Pine Furniture

18/26

At one time, pine was the preferred wood for furniture, and it was hard to enter a room in the house and not spot pine tables, chairs, hutches or chests. While a little pine is okay, a lot of it is overwhelming and a little too "log cabin" for most homes. Opt for furniture in other attractive types of wood, such as teak, walnut, or acacia.

Stenciling and Sponging

19/26

Decorating walls by hand was big in the ’90s. Adding texture or dimension with sponging was a tedious task, but it left homeowners with a look that was coveted at the time. Stenciling, too, was a hobby that left many ’90s-era walls with painted-on patterns. Grab a can of paint and cover up those outdated faux finishes and themed stencils.

Floral Accents

20/26

Rooms that are layered in floral motifs are straight out of the ’80s (remember Pretty in Pink?). To bring your otherwise monochromatic living room into the 21st century, brighten it with a few boldly patterned floral pillows. Mix and match solid and floral accents, too, to keep your living room from looking like your grandma’s parlor.

Heavy Window Treatments

21/26

Bulky curtains and heavy valances are things of the past, and for good reason. Heavy window treatments can overtake your space and make it feel claustrophobic. What’s more, they require a ton of upkeep (and trips to the dry cleaner) to look their best. The greater the surface area, the more dust chunky curtains will attract.

Avocado Green Appliances

22/26

The first kitchen appliances were white. The 1950s brought a rainbow of pastel fridges and stoves, and the late 1960s brought even bolder shades, most infamously avocado green, which felt like it was everywhere in the '70s. If you have an avocado green oven in your kitchen today, it's likely that your kitchen appliances haven’t been updated in almost 50 years. Kudos to you for keeping it in good condition for so long and everything, but it’s probably time for an update.

Bathroom Carpeting

23/26

In the 1960s and '70s, carpeting started to show up in bathrooms, where it brought warmth underfoot and an overall sense of luxury. Homeowners soon realized that it’s also a breeding ground for mold and mildew, and it was notoriously hard to keep clean in such a high-traffic spot. If you still have carpeting in the bathroom, it’s time to swap it out for a more forgiving, hygienic surface like ceramic or porcelain tile, or natural stone. While you’re at it, toss that fuzzy toilet seat cover and contour rug!

Matching Furniture Sets

24/26

Matching dining room, living room, or bedroom sets, those staples of 1980s game show prizes, can easily overwhelm a space. Their uniform look, conservative styling, and visual heft are out of place in today’s pared-down, eclectic interiors. Find a new home for that old farmhouse-style set or better yet, keep the table or hutch and swap out the rest with a few complementary pieces that add interest to the room, and better reflect your tastes.

In-Wall Tech From the Last Millennium

25/26

Does your house still have an in-wall intercom system, radio, or analog thermostat? This antiquated tech screams "dated!" and needs to be removed or replaced. Through-the-wall air conditioners also carry a whiff of the past, although the benefit of cool air usually outweighs their aesthetic shortcomings. That said, while central air may not be an option for most of us, it’s worth considering upgrading to a quieter, more efficient mini-split system.

Traditional-Style Ceiling Fans

26/26

Ceiling fans are effective, energy-efficient solutions for improving airflow and keeping the house cooler, but the traditional models with wood-grain blades and frilly glass bell-shaped shades are firmly rooted in the '80s and should be replaced. Today’s ceiling fans are more streamlined and subtle, providing all the benefits of a fan without the fanfare.

40 Walk In Wardrobes That Will Give You Deep Closet Envy

Like Architecture & Interior Design? Follow Us...

A walk in wardrobe is an aspirational aspect of home design–especially when it is one that is spacious, well organised and kitted out with a closet system that is as stylish as the clothing collection it holds. This collection of 40 custom walk in wardrobe designs show just how luxurious these tucked away spaces can be made to feel. Our curated gallery of designs feature beautiful finishes, attractive accent pieces, both stunning and practical lighting installations, and extensive closet organisation ideas. Find inspiration to maximise the potential of small hidden away bedroom closets and large dedicated dressing rooms alike, with ideas to fit all kinds of aesthetics, colour schemes, and budgets.

Create a focal point. If you have the space to hang statement lighting inside your walk in wardrobe, then a large ring pendant will create an impressive and practical circle of illumination. You might not be about to invite guests into your closet, but designing a luxury wardrobe is about creating a beautiful space that you’ll simply adore walking into time and again.

Include a vanity table in your layout, and team it with a colourful vanity chair. In this example, the same shade of blue is echoed in a small pouf on the other side of this closet to carry the theme through.

Stack your storage to the rafters. If you have high ceilings then put all that extra height to good use. The upper sections can be used for out of season clothes, special occasion outfits, or just for bedding.

Merge a walk in/walk through wardrobe with an ensuite bathroom or bathroom vanity area. Everyone knows the merry dance of moving between bathroom and closet area when dressing for the day or for bed, so why not make life easier.

A vanity mirror over the dresser is great, but do install a full length mirror–or two–for that all around outfit check.

Rethink your space. You may not think that you have the space for an impressive walk in, but a deep alcove with sliding doors added across can fashion the perfect nook. Add a modular closet system to create a custom layout of rails and shelves to suit your specific needs.

Want a walk in closet as daring as your fashion sense? Paint a bright pop of colour behind the rails, and get imaginative with personal touches–like the unique flash of graffiti across this illuminated mirror.

If neutrals are more your comfort and relaxation zone, then keep your head clear with uniform wooden units and a soft grey rug to cosy up the floor. A small indoor plant will freshen the palette.

Add an island of drawers, and accentuate it with a large modern chandelier.

Pink accents push the envelope on colour without distracting too boldly from the clothing choices on offer.

A mirrored vanity area at the end of a narrow room will make the space look wider.

A mirrored ceiling also promotes the feeling of open space, as do glass doors.

Build a closet around the edges of a bedroom lounge area to borrow natural daylight and the view, rather than being locked away. Slab front sliding doors will camouflage the cupboards when not in use.

Include seating near shoe storage; it will save you hopping around later.

Variety is the spice of life, and essential when putting together the most effective closet system. Make sure you include enough drawers, shelves, rails and cubbies to organise every type of garment and accessory.

On a budget? A bespoke closet layout with made-to-measure accessories doesn’t have to cost the earth when there are modular systems available from a certain Swedish furniture store.

Include a little art as an elegant final touch.

Light it up. Chandeliers, illuminated garment rails and backlit shelves; all are welcome.

Keep dust off designer pieces by putting doors across your collection. Clear glass doors will allow you to peruse and appreciate. Accessorise the space with decorative vases to continue the glassy effect.

An ottoman in the centre of a walk in wardrobe is a great idea for when trying on shoes or laying down outfit choices. A storage bench is an even better choice to maximise space.

Closets are quiet with no outside distractions, so why not incorporate a reading area in there too?

The wraparound. This layout allows the owner to take full advantage of incoming natural light. In the evenings, a designer table lamp is on hand to lighten the selection process.

When no windows are present, consider the possibility of a skylight.

Breathing space. With all garments encased in tinted glass cabinets, there is space to breathe.

Pull-out garment rails make practical use of high places.

A closet that’s behind two closets.

Double level wardrobe anyone?

Clean and serene. Pale grey units and soft lighting make an inviting space you’ll want to spend time in.

Use accessory storage boxes to pull in an accent colour.

Black units present a sophisticated aesthetic with a masculine air.

Push hanging rails all the way into corners to avoid wasting valuable space.

Let the bedroom inspire the closet colour scheme.

A well placed chaise lounge chair just oozes luxury.

Add glitz and glamour with golden touches.

Split the difference. Use a split colour paint effect to add interest, to split a shared closet space between two partners, or to visually separate your work wardrobe from your casual collection.

Candy coloured cabinets–is there anything sweeter? Add black base notes to anchor the look, like the swivel chair, black chandelier and storage boxes in this example.

More pastel coloured inspiration.

Mirrored base units increase the sense of floor space.

If fashion is your career or hobby, then why not include a desk in your walk in so that you can work in your most inspirational place?

Light box love. Light boxes create the feeling of a window inside a windowless closet, and provide super bright shelving illumination.

How to choose a cabinet?

Choosing a beautiful wardrobe is easy. It is important to consider the basic rules of choice. You need to measure the free space of the room to determine exactly whether the cabinet will fit. Incorrect measurements lead to the fact that you have to move all the furniture. It is important to measure the width and height of the doorway. If a one-piece wardrobe is purchased, it is likely that due to its dimensions it will not be able to enter the room.

The best cabinet is made of natural materials (wood oak, pine). True, the cost of such cabinets is beyond the reach of the average resident of the country. Cabinets are an order of magnitude cheaper from chipboard. They are not inferior in strength to cabinets made of natural wood, and they look spectacular, high quality, stylish. nine0003

The next step is to determine which cabinet is suitable for a particular room. If we are talking about the living room - there is an important part of the wardrobe. It will store all kinds of outer, demi-season clothing.

How to choose a wardrobe

Wardrobe is necessary not only for women, as it may seem from the name. In such a piece of furniture any clothes that are in dire need of hangers can be stored. Hangers protect clothes from excessive wrinkling, shoulders do not leave unpleasant folds, creases. All kinds of dresses, jackets, various cardigans, outerwear (jackets, fur coats, down jackets, coats, raincoats) are stored in the wardrobe. nine0003

Choose your wardrobe so that your longest item hangs freely in it. The height of the cabinet should be more than two meters.

Buying a wardrobe with a mirror on the doors, you also get a full-length mirror, so necessary in every home.

How to decorate a wardrobe

Just as there are many interior designers today, there is a great variety of wardrobe designs. Designers contribute to each of their brainchildren. Various ornaments, stucco, mirrors, stained-glass windows, a variety of beautiful unique handles. You can always contact any designer and he will tell you how best to decorate your closet. Of course, the services of such a specialist are not free. nine0003

If you are on a budget, you can try decorating your wardrobe yourself. This will require sandpaper, glue, putty, paint, varnish, a little inspiration.

Sliding wardrobe and its role in the interior

Sliding wardrobe is very convenient and functional in everyday life. Its outer side is mirrored. The consumer receives a full-length, full-length mirror in his home. Behind the mirror there are many shelves, a space with hangers for outer demi-season clothes. There is also a separate section for shoes, which can easily be retrained into shelves for bed linen, towels, and various clothes. nine0003

Sliding wardrobe mirror doors run on so-called rails. Due to them, the cabinet takes up incredibly little space, because the doors of such a cabinet do not open outward, but move apart and slide.

Often a closet is built into the wall in such a way that it does not take up a centimeter of space at all. True, such a trick can only be played in an apartment with thick walls. Such a cabinet can be corner. True, in terms of functionality, it is inferior to standard long cabinets. nine0003

Doors of the closet can be without a mirror, pasted over with the same wallpaper as the whole room where it stands. Visually, it will seem that there is no closet in the room at all, and only the most attentive will be able to notice it.

Absolutely any interior with a wardrobe will be much more advantageous than an interior without it. This piece of furniture gives comfort to the room, and also creates visual order. All small things that are unnecessary to the prying eye, hide in the closet. nine0003

Original types of wardrobes

If your bedroom or living room is small enough, a corner wardrobe will look perfect in the interior. It takes up little space, while it will not interfere, and at the same time it will look just as excellent as a standard cabinet.

Furniture for a bright space

If you are the owner of a bright room or if you want to visually expand the room, opt for a white cabinet. White color looks elegant and impressive. You can complement it with a snow-white sofa, armchairs, pick up white curtains. You can decorate the room with white flowers. nine0003

Life hacks for cabinets

Life hack is a useful tip that not everyone knows about. Perhaps one of these tips will make your difficult home life easier.

In order to fit as many items as possible on the cabinet shelves (this can be T-shirts, trousers, underwear, towels), place these items in the form of a roll one on top of the other. Unlike standard folding, the roll takes up little space. In it, things do not bend, do not crumple.

If there is an unpleasant smell in the closet, put the peel of an orange, lemon, grapefruit on the furniture shelves. Choose absolutely any bright-smelling citrus fruit. You can also put sachets of various herbs in linen. If fruits and sachets are not at hand, a regular sample of toilet, eau de parfum, perfume will help. Just open the probe and put it next to your clothes.

If there are moths in the closet, hang inside, next to fur, knitted products, a sachet - lavender. nine0003

Bed linen should be folded into a pillowcase (duvet cover, sheet, pillowcase), rolled up. The roll turns out to be narrow, plus the bed linen will lie separately from each other. Thus, it will become easy to navigate in the closet.

Restoration of an old wardrobe

If you inherited an old wardrobe from your grandmother, do not rush to get rid of the junk. Old furniture can be easily and simply restored. You can even do it yourself. nine0003

The easiest way is to wrap an old cabinet with self-adhesive foil with a wood pattern. The film is moisture resistant, does not peel off due to the strong layer of glue. And not a single inhabitant will doubt the authenticity of the cabinet pasted over with a film.

Another option is to sand the furniture with sandpaper, then smooth out all the irregularities with putty. Apply paint (water-based, enamel, acrylic). Make several layers of paint, it all depends on preferences. It is most desirable to choose acrylic paint - it contains natural resin. It does not have an unpleasant smell, dries very quickly, is waterproof, does not fade in the sun. nine0003

Acrylic paint looks like it has already been varnished. If you have made a choice in favor of another paint (enamel, water-based), apply a layer of varnish after it dries. It will give your locker a natural shine. But keep in mind that the varnish dries for a very long time.

After all the manipulations done, the new cabinet will start life anew. If desired, this piece of furniture can be decorated with various ornaments, patterns (for even application, you can use a stencil). nine0003

The need for a wardrobe in every home

Among the huge number of different lockers, it is quite easy to choose the right one, the main thing is to determine exactly what you are looking for. First you need to measure the room in which the furniture will be located. Be sure to measure the height and width of the doorway. It is not only about the front door, but also about the opening of the inner room.

If you buy a one-piece wardrobe, it is likely that it will not fit into the apartment due to its dimensions. In this case, it is better to choose a folding cabinet. You will have to assemble it yourself already directly in the room where it will be located. nine0003

Cabinets in the interior: types and selection rules

What is the most popular and sought-after piece of furniture found in almost every home? nine0003

That's right - a closet!

Every house has a closet, sometimes even more than one. Thanks to this convenient piece of furniture, we can functionally and comfortably arrange the necessary things that we use every day, as well as those things that do not require everyday use. Trinkets, souvenirs, photo frames, some things that are significant for us are conveniently located on the shelves of the closet and delight the eye, evoking pleasant emotions and memories, attract the attention of guests and simply bring individuality and comfort to the interior of the house. nine0003

There is a huge number of products on the furniture market today. Choosing a wardrobe and making a purchase, I want to purchase a product that will bring us aesthetic pleasure and will be convenient in everyday use.

How to buy this cabinet?

In this article we will try to find the answer to this question and make out what to look for when buying.

First of all, it is worth noting that cabinets can be cabinet and built-in. Cabinet furniture always has rear and side outer walls, a floor and a roof. The built-in model differs from the case counterpart in the absence of some elements. nine0003

Depending on your own wishes, style and size of the room in which the cabinet is purchased, a certain model is selected.

Consider the most common models.

Wardrobes.

This is a stylish and practical solution for the home. Sliding wardrobe doors are installed on special guide rails located above and below, along which the door leaf moves with the help of rollers. The obvious advantages of the design of the wardrobe - compartment - saving room space and ease of use. Wardrobes differ in excellent capacity. When buying a sliding wardrobe, do not save on the mechanism and rollers that ensure the functioning of the cabinet doors, as high-quality mechanisms ensure a long service life and comfortable everyday use. nine0003

Swing cabinets

Swing doors are hinged and open horizontally. Such a mechanism is simpler than the system used in wardrobes. The number of doors for a swing cabinet can be from 1 to 6. The most popular models of swing cabinets are with two and three doors.

Cabinets with side sections

It can be a swing cabinet or wardrobe. There is a shelf in place of the side wall. Due to this design, the cabinet itself will not look massive, the side open shelves will create a feeling of lightness and more free space around. Souvenirs, books, photo frames, candles and other interior items located on the shelves will perform a decorative function and create an atmosphere of comfort. Wardrobes with side sections are great for a child's room, bedroom, hallway, living room. nine0003

Corner cabinets

Helps not only to maximize free space, but also save space and smooth out sharp corners in the room and wall defects, if any. Corner racks An additional corner module allows you to increase the capacity of the cabinet. it can be open or closed. Open models have a more decorative function.

Which cabinet to choose?

The choice of model depends on which room the cabinet is selected for.

Wardrobes can be located in the dressing area, in the hallway, in the bedroom, living room, children's room. In order for the cabinet to fit well into the interior of the room, it is necessary to focus on the type of cabinet.

Hallway closet

Hallways in modern apartments generally do not have a large area. If you have just such an option, it is better to give preference to a closet, it has a good capacity, plus it saves precious space due to sliding doors. Corner models of cabinets are also very convenient for hallways. They allow you not to clutter up the hallway and compactly arrange clothes, shoes and other things. nine0003

Wardrobe for living room

in the form of a living room. Cabinets with side shelves fit very well into the living room decor. On the shelves you can arrange various interior items.

Bedroom wardrobe

The bedroom usually has a dressing area. For these purposes, a wardrobe is perfect. Depending on the dimensions of the room, choose 2, 3 and even 6-door wardrobes. For a room with a small area, it would be appropriate to opt for a corner cabinet model.

Wardrobe for children's room

requires special attention. In addition to spaciousness and compactness, the cabinet must meet all safety requirements. The closet should not be bulky and take up a lot of space in the room. Taking into account the increased children's activity and taking into account the fact that children spend most of their time playing, the closet should be chosen one that will not interfere with free movement around the room. Such requests are fully met by wardrobes, or corner models. They are safer than straight swing models and are quite compact. nine0003

Having decided on the cabinet model, we pay attention to the materials from which the product is made.

As a rule, furniture manufacturers use in production:

Natural wood. This is the most expensive material, but at the same time the most environmentally friendly. Therefore, if funds allow, the choice should be stopped on products from the array.

MDF . A material that has been successfully used in the furniture industry for a long time, allowing many design ideas to be realized. MDF products are affordable, environmentally friendly, beautiful, easy to clean, durable. The cost of MDF products is quite affordable, products are designed for a large segment of consumers. nine0003

Chipboard. A more budget option compared to the previous ones. Nevertheless, laminated chipboard furniture made of high-quality and safety-compliant materials has good quality characteristics, is environmentally friendly and, with proper and careful care, will last a long time.

Modern wardrobes made by trusted manufacturers comply with the regulations, are safe and beautiful. So that buying a wardrobe does not become an unpleasant and even more dangerous event for you, we advise you to look at our blog and find out why you should give preference to trusted furniture manufacturers and what may be hidden behind a very low cost of goods. nine0003

Nowadays, there are a lot of different furniture styles and trends, and of course they are all different. This affects the design and appearance of cabinets. Speaking about the design and appearance of the cabinet, we mean, of course, the facades, which are the “face” of the cabinet.

Oh, what a variety of different materials and finishes appears before us when we choose cabinets

The most basic materials used by modern manufacturers for facade design:

Chipboard and MDF. The most common and popular materials. A rich range of colors and variations of textures allow you to decorate the cabinet in accordance with the wishes of the client, choose the color and texture, thanks to which the furniture will look harmonious in the interior. The materials are easy to care for and with proper care will last you a long time.

Mirror. Also widely used in the design of facades. In order for the cabinet not to lose its attractiveness, more careful care is needed for the mirror surfaces. With a large selection of mirror care products, this will not be a problem. nine0003

Glass: frosted, tinted, colored. Lakobel. Stained glass. All these materials give individuality to the wardrobe, making the model original.
