Text: Miscellaneous Altar of Households.
There are some decoration designs or furniture that used to be very popular, but now no one cares about them.
In fact, this also reminds us of decoration or furniture selection.
In this article, we will introduce 6 types of furniture that were very popular 20 years ago, but they are still rarely talked about.
The key is that we find alternatives to these pieces of furniture so that we have better options.
Do you know what furniture was once popular, but now no one cares about?
(1) - basin stand
Basin stands, 20 years ago, were still very popular, and almost every household had a washbasin stand.
The so-called washbasin stand is a shelf that is installed using corresponding materials, such as wood and metal, and the washbasin can be placed on the shelf.
There are some washbasin stands in the house, which are now antiques.
I believe that some friends have the impression that when they got married twenty or thirty years ago, they even had a basin stand as a dowry.
But at this stage, there are many people who don't know the basin stand. Even, some people have not heard of basin stands.
The basin stand has been replaced by the following scheme:
Ceramic washbasin. Ceramic washbasin is the earliest sanitary ware to replace the basin frame, it has a column below it, and a ceramic basin on top, which is simple, cheap and durable.
Washbasin countertops. This is a scheme that later appeared to replace the traditional basin stand, the traditional washbasin countertop is a ceramic integrated basin countertop, the countertop is ceramic, and the basin body is also ceramic.
Rock slab countertops. The rock slab countertop contains two schemes: the rock slab integrated basin and the rock slab countertop ceramic basin. All in all, its countertops are all slate, only the sink is different.
Precautions:
For ordinary families, it is recommended that you choose a ceramic integrated basin when decorating your home. Ceramic basins are not only cheap, but more importantly, durable and stain-resistant.
When buying a ceramic integrated basin, you should also consider the mirror cabinet and the cabinet under the countertop. Because many people have reported that the cabinet of the ceramic integrated basin is difficult to use, and it will crack after a long time.
(2) - camphor wood box
Camphor wood box, I believe many friends have heard of it, is also a very popular furniture twenty or thirty years ago.
Of course, there are many friends who have not heard of camphor wood boxes. In fact, the most traditional function of the camphor wood box is to put clothes.
The clothes mentioned here are to stack some clothes that you don't usually wear and store them in a camphor wood box.
It can also be seen that the camphor wood box is actually very similar to the function of some of the storage boxes we use to store clothes now.
With the change of home decoration methods and home decoration materials, camphor wood boxes are rarely seen now.
It can be said that most of the homes do not have camphor wood boxes. There are even some families that keep it as old antiques.
Because of the appearance of the following items, it also led to the replacement of camphor wood boxes:
A wide variety of storage boxes. For example, if we have a lot of clothes at home, we will put them in the storage box, and then put them under the bed or in the closet.
Vacuum storage bag. In fact, there are still many friends who use vacuum storage bags, and the practice is to put the clothes that are not worn in the bag, and then smoke them into a vacuum to store.
Precautions:
When it comes to storage boxes, try to think about where we place them. For example, whether it is placed in the wardrobe, placed under the bed, or some other corners, confirm the size in advance to avoid not being able to put it down.
When it comes to vacuum storage bags, be sure to consider operability. Because many times, you find that you can't pull out the vacuum at all, and in the end the bag is bulging, but there is no place to put it.
(3) - Large wardrobe
The large wardrobe is also not unfamiliar to many people. However, it is now rare in the home.
In fact, the so-called big wardrobe here, in my opinion, is the traditional version of the current wardrobe.
In other words, the wardrobe we see in our home decoration is actually gradually transformed from a large wardrobe.
A large wardrobe is actually a slightly larger cabinet for clothes, but it is a single one. Its width is about 15 meters to 18 meters, the height is about two meters.
Twenty or thirty years ago, large wardrobes were also the standard furniture in homes, and every household would have 1 or 2 large wardrobes.
However, until now, there are almost no large wardrobes in newly renovated houses.
Some of you may not know how the big wardrobe disappeared.
In fact, the reason is also very simple, the large wardrobe is replaced by the following cabinet:
The assembled wardrobe of the finished product gradually replaced the large wardrobe. This was the first process in which the large wardrobe was replaced. That is, more wardrobes appeared, with better styles, wider and higher sizes to meet the needs of more families.
The cabinets are played on site, and most of them replace the large wardrobes. As carpenters can make cabinets on site, many people will have more cabinets at home according to the size of their homes, and they will no longer be the traditional single large wardrobe.
The emergence of custom wardrobes has further led to the disappearance of traditional large wardrobes. At this stage, most of the cabinets in home decoration are mainly customized wardrobes, which are customized according to the overall style of our room size.
Precautions:
Looking for a carpenter to make a cabinet, we must confirm two points: one is to confirm the craftsmanship of the carpenter, and the other is to confirm the board we have purchased. If any point is not done well, the effect will not be too ideal, and it may seriously overturn.
Custom-made wardrobes. Confirm the method of valuation, as well as the plates and hardware used. The key thing to confirm here is whether it is calculated according to the projected area or the unfolded areaWhich brand of hardware is chosen?How are additions calculated?In this way, you can know what to expect.
(4) - Recliners
Recliners, 20 years ago, were still a very popular piece of furniture.
Of course, 20 years ago, reclining chairs were not available in every household. It's just that some of the more high-end families have reclining chairs.
The so-called recliners here are mainly made of solid wood, and some are made of bamboo.
The recliner has two functions, that is, it can be used as a chair when it is not usually unfolded;After unfolding, it can be used as a bed by lying on it.
Therefore, the chaise longue is still a very practical and very useful piece of furniture on the whole.
But even so, you will find that there are fewer and fewer friends who buy recliners.
Because there are better products to replace the recliners. Do you know what they are?
The advent of sofas has largely replaced chaise longues. There were no sofas before, but they have only slowly appeared in recent decades, and they have largely replaced recliners.
The emergence of shell sofas, lazy sofas, has completely replaced recliners to a large extent. Because there is a certain difference between the sofa and the recliner after all, there is a shell sofa and a lazy sofa, which have exactly the same function as the recliner.
Living in a building, the space placed in the living room also determines that the traditional reclining chair will gradually be eliminated. Traditional reclining chairs are placed at home, which still takes up a lot of space, so many friends will give up.
Precautions:
When choosing a sofa, you must choose according to the size of the living room, not blindly. Because the more sofas you have, the bigger the better. For most families, it is recommended that you choose an ordinary 3-seater sofa, unless you choose a three-seater sofa with a chaise longue in a large living room.
If you buy some Internet celebrity products, such as shell sofas and lazy sofas, then it is recommended that you choose it as a toy. Therefore, there is no need to buy too expensive ones, and it is not distressing to throw them away after a period of time.
(5) - Floor-to-ceiling box bed
Floor-to-ceiling beds were also very popular twenty or thirty years ago.
The so-called floor-to-ceiling box bed actually refers to the fact that the bottom of our bed and the side panels are assembled using plates. The box sits directly on the floor, and there is plenty of space inside to store things.
Therefore, from the point of view of appearance, the floor-to-ceiling box bed has no legs, and it is floored on all sides.
The floor-to-ceiling bed is a very popular type of bed that has emerged after the traditional solid wood frame bed.
But at this stage, there are very few people who choose this kind of floor-to-ceiling box bed.
Because although the floor-to-ceiling box bed realizes the need to put clothes and shoes, its own problems are becoming more and more prominent.
This, coupled with the emergence of the following wide variety of beds, led to the elimination of floor-to-ceiling box beds:
The emergence of hydraulic rod bed has replaced the floor box bed to a certain extent. Because of the floor box bed, the mattress and futon need to be lifted when taking and taking items, which is very troublesome, so there is a hydraulic rod box bed.
Rib frame bed. The slatted frame bed is currently a more popular bed. The rib frame bed is four-legged floored, and the lower part has a box and some does not, but no matter which one it is, it is better to use.
The change in lifestyle has also eliminated the floor-to-ceiling box bed to a certain extent. Because with our higher and higher requirements for home quality, the position under the bed is cleaned as much as possible, coupled with the emergence of sweeping robots, the traditional floor box bed has gradually been eliminated.
Precautions:
When choosing a bed, it is recommended that you must choose one that leaves a certain amount of space at the bottom of the bed. The distance between the bottom of the bed and the ground is generally about 15 cm, so that effective ventilation can be formed under the bed.
When choosing a bed, you should also consider the use of sweeping robots at home. For the sweeping robot, as long as there is space underneath, it can walk freely, so at this time, it is also guaranteed that there is about 15 cm of space under the bed.
Written at the end of the article
With the change of lifestyle, in fact, many friends will also find that the style of home decoration, the furniture at home, and even some decoration materials are gradually changing.
And these changes, from beginning to end, are a process of gradual replacement and replacement. Therefore, when we decorate, we can understand these replacement processes, so that we can choose more usable and practical furniture.
