As we know, fashion is cyclical, and this also applies to interior design.

Some trends from Soviet times have become relevant again.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI on issues of interior design and interior design, will tell you which Soviet techniques have once again regained their relevance.

Current Soviet trends

Previously, in every apartment you could find a colorful carpet on the wall, and gradually this technique became a sign of bad taste.

However, now, given the fashion for ethnic motifs, colorful carpets will be appropriate in interior styles of boho, ethnic and others.

Mezzanines have lost their relevance because they significantly cut the height of the room. However, now their placement has been rethought: this architectural solution helps to increase the area of the kitchen due to the cabinets up to the ceiling.

Parquet laid in a herringbone pattern cannot be called an anti-trend, but now this method of laying flooring has undergone changes. For example, quartz vinyl and laminate are now laid in this way, and not only natural wood.

Glass blocks were once widely used everywhere. Now they are relevant as stationary partitions and are made of glass of various colors.
