Why was it even invented?! The strangest and most impractical furniture

When creating the interior of a house or apartment, people strive to make it cozy, comfortable, stylish, and functional. But many people get carried away with searching for unusual design solutions, and the decor in the apartment becomes tasteless. In addition, some things that look stylish and beautiful on the pages of design magazines become inappropriate in real life.

To create a harmonious, cozy interior, you should abandon the use of certain pieces of furniture.

Glass tables

Coffee tables with glass tops have long gone out of fashion. But many still keep them. Of course, such products add lightness to the interior of a living space. On the other hand, glass tables have a number of disadvantages:

1. They are dangerous. Glass is quite easy to break, which can lead to injury.
2. Impractical. Handprints, mechanical scratches, and dirt stains remain on the surface of the table.

Reference! To add lightness to the interior, you can use mirrors and metal accessories. An excellent alternative to a glass table would be furniture made from natural wood or modern materials.

White sofa

A white sofa is not suitable for families with children and pets.It gets dirty easily and will leave scratches on the leather surface. If it is impossible to do without such a sofa, you need to follow several recommendations:

1. Upholstery. You need to choose a sofa from stain-resistant materials: Teflon, microfiber, impregnated chenille, eco-leather.
2. Case. It is advisable that the product has a removable cover that you can clean yourself.

Reference! You can disguise scratch marks using special care products for leather furniture.

Budget kitchen sets with wooden facades

There are situations when, after the renovation is completed, there is only enough money for an inexpensive kitchen set. Trying to compensate for the cost of the frame, many choose products with heavy, expensive facades. Since the furniture in the kitchen is often used, the facade can quickly lose its attractive appearance - parts of it can simply be torn out.

Reference! The optimal solution is to purchase an inexpensive version of a kitchen set with lightweight facades. Or buy a high-quality, expensive frame, and purchase the facades later.

Giant "walls"

Such furniture takes up a lot of space. In addition, over time, a huge amount of unnecessary things accumulates in it.

Instead of a “wall,” it is better to install a TV stand, a chest of drawers, or place a TV receiver on the wall.

Children's furniture

Furniture for children, made in the form of cars or other themed items, looks appropriate when the child is small. But he will grow up, and such furniture will no longer suit him. In addition, when choosing cribs and other interior elements, parents are guided by their taste. But an older child may not like the furniture.

Therefore, it is advisable to purchase practical, universal furniture for the children's room.

Sofa bed

A folding sofa is very popular among owners of small apartments.

Few people will enjoy collecting it every day. Sleeping on it is uncomfortable, and guests stay overnight quite rarely. Therefore, even in a small room it is advisable to allocate space for a standard bed.

Chair-bed

Most often, such furniture is purchased for children. The chair does not take up much space and has sections for storing things. But such products have a number of disadvantages:

• since the chair consists of two folding parts, folds often form between them, which cause discomfort and have a negative impact on the spine;
• It will be difficult for the baby to unfold the chair on his own, so constant assistance from parents is necessary;
• high-quality furniture is quite expensive, so inexpensive options are more popular, but cheap materials are used for their manufacture, so the product will quickly fail, and pellets will appear on the upholstery.

Therefore, it is advisable to allocate space and purchase a bed of suitable size with a good mattress for the baby.

The Art of Symbiosis by Hugh Hayden

Nowadays you won’t surprise anyone with unusual designer items. For example, Hugh Hayden creates interior items that cannot be used, but are worth looking at.

All furniture is made of solid wood, including knots and remains of branches that stick out from the trunk.

The sculptor interprets his artistic solution as follows: this is a kind of camouflage that is necessary to unify furniture and nature. The designer's work intertwines unpredictability and discipline.

Despite the fact that such furniture looks rather unusual, it is only appropriate in the exhibition halls of art galleries.

To create a stylish, harmonious and cozy interior, you should avoid certain furniture. All things used must be practical and consistent with the overall design of the room.
