Decoration is a matter that pays great attention to details. Each decoration design is related to the future living experience. Homeowners who are decorating for the first time may not have a deep understanding of this. They often choose decoration designs subjectively based on their own preferences. However, in fact, some seemingly "high-end" designs may not be practical after moving in, which will lead to regrets not long after moving in because the experience is extremely bad.

This issue will give you an inventory of some relatively useless decoration designs. I hope you don’t make the same mistake as I did!

1. The bottom of the custom shoe cabinet is not suspended

When I customized the shoe cabinet, I only thought about the height and depth of each layer of the cabinet and how to layout it, but I overlooked the need to leave a 15-20cm gap at the bottom of the cabinet to store slippers and some shoes that are changed frequently. As a result, I have to open the cabinet to find or put away shoes every time I go to and from get off work, which is very troublesome.

Now, in order to save trouble, family members are too lazy to put the slippers in the cabinet, and they are piled at the entrance of the house. It is messy and people often kick them when opening the door, which is not beautiful at all.

2. The bathroom is specially built with a niche for storage

I don't know why the niche design that was popular in the 1980s has suddenly become popular again. This "Internet celebrity" effect has led everyone to follow suit and build niches. Some people even go to the trouble of building a wall and then digging a hole in the wall to build a niche. In fact, it is really unnecessary. The niche is not as easy to use as imagined. It is mainly because some houses need to cover the sewer pipes, so they build a niche to store things. Building a wall specifically for it is a waste of money and redundant.

Besides, the niche also has its disadvantages. For example, if it is not done well, water will accumulate, and over time, the four sanitary corners will turn black. Some masters also make the partitions of the niche very thick, which looks bulky and ugly. It is better to hang a shelf directly.

3. Make partition bookshelves or open bookcases at home

Regardless of the reason, I don’t recommend you to make hollow partitions, partitioned bookshelves, and open bookcases at home, because they are too difficult to maintain. Cabinets without doors can only accumulate dust, and it is a torture to clean them every now and then, especially hollow designs, which are full of gaps of all sizes, and you can’t even reach your fingers in to wipe them. Over time, they will look very old.

4. Install a bathtub in the bathroom

If your bathroom is not spacious, don't install a bathtub. A bathtub may be the dream of many people. After work, we can enjoy a bath while listening to music and washing away our fatigue. But the reality is that it is highly unused and takes up space. Just imagine how much preparation is required before and after taking a bath? Cleaning the bathtub, filling the water, taking a bath, and cleaning it again, the whole process makes people tired.

In a house that costs tens of thousands of yuan per square meter, this bathtub alone takes up a lot of space. At most, you can take a bath there on weekends. Ordinary people really don't need to install a bathtub.

5. The living room is furnished with a large coffee table and an L-shaped sofa that takes up a lot of space

When choosing furniture, you should not only consider the style, but also the practicality of the furniture. When I was decorating my house, I didn’t think too much about it. I equipped my house with a large coffee table and an L-shaped sofa. After living in it for a while, I found that these two things were really useless and took up space. It would be better to choose a straight-line sofa with a simple small round table.

The L-shaped sofa in the already small living room makes the space seem even narrower and the whole living room looks lifeless. The large coffee table is even more useless. I only put some fruits and snacks on it. If I put too much, it will look messy. I bumped into the corners of the coffee table several times when I passed by. Of course, if the living room is large, this is not a problem. It depends on your actual situation!

6. The kitchen wall tiles and countertops are all pure white

In order to make the kitchen more beautiful, I chose to lay the popular white bricks on the wall, and the kitchen countertops also chose pure white quartz stone to match. I didn't expect that both of them are very difficult to clean. Especially the white bricks on the wall, the white seams have started to turn yellow after half a year, and the cost of laying tiles was much more expensive than the cost of the bricks themselves. After all the calculations, it would be better to lay the better-looking big bricks from the beginning!

To be honest, useless decoration will really reduce our living experience and make life even more chaotic, so when we decorate our own house, we must try our best to consider practicality and avoid some useless decoration designs.
