Despite the popularity of minimalism, which has been ruling the roost in interior design for many years, people are gradually starting to get tired of its coldness.

This is why some old trends are gradually coming back into fashion.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI on issues of interior design and interior design, will tell you which Soviet “tricks” no longer look wild in modern apartments.

The Return of 80s Trends

You might be surprised, but those same flowers are back in fashion!

Floral prints have returned to modern interiors, but now it is important to observe moderation. If earlier the entire room was decorated with flowers, now one accent wall with an image of large flowers, birds or leaves is enough.

Futurism is also back in fashion. There was a real boom in the 80s, when it was fashionable to furnish apartments in the style of Star Wars, Star Trek and other popular movie universes where the action takes place in the future.

And now fashion trends for unusual visual effects, streamlined forms, geometric shapes are not alien to the styles of high-tech, bionics, contemporary, etc.

If you like warm and soulful interior styles like boho, eclecticism, ethnic and retro, it’s time to remember that very carpet that hung on the walls of every Soviet apartment.

Of course, you shouldn't do the same and hang colorful carpets on all the walls of your house. However, you can decorate one accent wall of the room with them to add coziness to the space.
