5 Ridiculous home design trends that need to die

• Architectural design in Orange County CA has
  certainly improved in the past few decades. Not
  only have people warmed up to the idea of
  exploring new designs and techniques that are
  prevalent in the rest of the country and the
  world, but a lot of tacky and poor designs have
  also been pushed into extinction. However good
  these advancements have been for the industry,
  just like fashion has some strict Dos and
  Donts, some designs that appear criminally silly
  are still being used.

• 1. Taxidermy
• Dead animals do not belong on a wall. Certainly,
  at first, when having bison heads and antlers
  taxidermized on the wall was first introduced,
  this trend had a certain ranch vibe to it that
  added a certain degree of pastoral charm to the
  modern-day lifestyle. In this day and age, it
  looks as if the animals have been hung on far too
  many walls. Although the process by which these
  architectural pieces are gathered considered as
  unacceptable nowadays, almost every house has it!

• 2. Chevron
• Of all the interior design trends that have swept
  the nation in the past few decades, the most
  number of people fell in love with the chevron
  pattern like no other design ever before. There
  was a time in the country where a majority of the
  houses were decorated with Chevron, all around
  the house!
• What used to be a sight for sore eyes, has become
  the reason for its soreness. Chevron has been
  overdone by so many people that the trend never
  really got the chance to become exclusive.

• 3. Grey
• Grey is a hard color. If not done correctly, what
  the homeowner gets is a taciturn room that gives
  off the feeling of a cement cellar instead of a
  friendly, modern space. Undeniably, most designer
  publications show how to suitably be successful
  with this color by filling up the room with
  tonal-grey coloring and matching everything with
  lively lights, big windows and silver trim.
• 4. Minimalism
• It is a trend which had its roots in the dark
  necessities during the recent period of
  recession. However, now that the period is
  thankfully over and people are economically
  viable again, it is time to add some features,
  finish and fun to the interiors.

• 5. Following Trends
• Following silly trends and re-doing the rooms
  every year is another trend that needs to be
  demolished! People need to follow their instinct
  and try out different things. They shouldnt be
  afraid to break the rules. Paint a rustic lodge
  green and fill it with unconventional furniture.
  After all, it is the owners choice! Being
  original and innovative is far more commendable
  than blindly repeating trends.
