Erin is an interior designer who posts on TikTok under the username @niftynest and in one clip, she revealed the interior styles that she believes are no longer trendy.
She said: “I’m all for designing and decorating your house exactly how you want.
“I’m also for not listening to interior designers, I am one, telling you what you should be doing and rules, but a lot of you have asked me what design trends that are out or going out, or ‘should’ go out.
“I almost hate doing this, but here it goes.”
Erin then shared pictures of the trends that she can’t stand and thinks are tacky.
First up, Erin revealed that she isn’t a fan of patterned stick-on tiles, fake trees and kitchen islands that have an X on the end/side of them.
Not only this, but she also noted that she can’t stand unfinished edging/backsplash tiling and mismatched flooring.
When it comes to walls, the interior designer claimed that she doesn’t like geometric accent walls or a single painted wood accent wall.
Similar to this, Erin declared that she also isn’t too keen on panelling, as she shared her distaste for slatted wood corners and unique panelling design that doesn’t cover an entire wall.
Erin later added: “These are just my personal opinions.
“You do you! Always!”
Erin’s clip has clearly shocked many, as it has quickly amassed 387.3k views.
It has 19.6k likes, 2,260 comments and 151 shares.
However, social media users were left divided at the clip – while many agreed with Erin, not everyone was on board.
One user posted: “Agree!” to which Erin responded “I mean, you do you but for me, these are overdone.”
A second chimed in: “I am not an interior designer by any means, but I 100% agree with you on all!!”
Whilst someone else noted: “Agree on all. How have those first tiles that you showed made it to so many homes? They’re so bold and graphic they’re going to be an eyesore.”
To this, the interior whizz replied: “I think that’s it: when something is everywhere, I don’t want to see it anymore.”
At the same time, one person admitted: “Oops, looks like my house is about 5 or 6 trends behind.”
Another added: “Dang I was thinking of doing the geometric wall.”
A third commented: “I love an accent wall in a bland house.”
