We are seeing the start of the pushback against the "millennial gray" interior design philosophy thats been so dominant the last 10-15 years. Where do we go next? Do we overcorrect with gaudy colors and loud decor?What are you doing in your house to add personality and make your space look less like a corporate hotel lobby?
>>2984958wood never goes out of styledon't know why you think we're past the grey though
>>2984964People are going to be stripping paint off of knotty pine for generations to come.
>3 pointless questions >not posting in >>2965962a good thread died for this trash
>>2984958people like to point out that the grayness disguises the style clash, like you have a postmodernist gray table and a contemporary silver couch and a pale wood flooring. nobody notices or cares that none of it matches because they all look the same anyway and they're going to be forgotten as soon as you're done looking at them
>>2984964it's not over but people are starting to get mad at it, in about 2-3 years time something will be ready to replace it
>>2984965the funny thing about white walls is that my parents' old house was built in 2008 with white walls and by the time they finally got kicked out by the bank (because they built a house in 2008) the walls were fucked because if you touch a white wall for any reason it leaves a stain behind, and my old bedroom was perhaps one of the worst.meanwhile, my house, built in the early 1910s and remodeled in the 1970s with wood paneled walls, still looks the same as it must've when it was remodeled.it's not real wood paneling, of course, but you can throw things at the wall or knock a chair against it or whatever without leaving smudges everywhere, it's great.
>>2984958>gaudy colors and loud decor?This is already happening yeah. About 50% of my work is domestic calls and I have seen this turn over the past year or so. This is in UK, might take a wee while more for the "live, laugh, love" crowd to catch up but.
>>2984978>if you touch a white wall for any reason it leaves a stain behindThey just used a very shitty paint, or they just primed it and never painted the walls. Indoor/outdoor paint is pretty resilient.
>>2984978Take a shower dirtbag
>>2985031it was probably shitty paint, house wasn't exactly built by the best guys around>>2985036that was probably some of it too I'd go for dizzying amounts of time without a shower as a teenager, but I'm also exaggerating, it's more that if you touched the wall often in one spot (say next to a handrail) it would soon be stained offwhite
>>2984958MCM terracotta tones, dark wood, lava rock, and brass accents. You can even keep the white walls.
