Modern media always ruins the 80s with that fake, clean, neon-purple 2020s aesthetic. The real 80s were a wild mix of cozy brown/beige wood paneling and insane, experimental pastel/neon color geometry.Dumping 1980s interiors, architecture, and objects.
>>18711408
>>18711408>Cozy brownNo that's the late seventies just holding over for a few years into the 80s.A lot of people didn't have the money to immediately upgrade into in the 1980s right away. Same with cars, in the 80s there were still a bunch of cars and trucks from the 70s driving around.
>>18711419Anyone who lived through the 80s remembers it was full of brown, wood paneling, and floral patterns. I don't get the obsession with trying to cleanly box everything into decades; the lived reality was exactly that mix, not the modern neon filter.

>>18711424the wood panelling is eliteI can't do carpet though. Unfortunately. Just too gross.
>>18712265and it's so damn hard to find real pics of those places.
>>18712281Magazines should be your best bet. Something like https://archive.org/details/architektur-wohnen-1988-heft-4https://archive.org/details/home-magazine-february-1990/
>>18712289unfortunately i've seen some places like that in my country which have been 'renovated' and all the wood panelling was removed, and all the the insides of the home painted white. disgusting. this is because of some millennial women who think painting everything white makes it instagram-ready (I'm a millennial myself)

>>18711425>Honey, can you quickly get the salt from the kitchen?>Sure, right on m…aaahhh(sounds of bones braking and tableware getting destroyed >>18711426No. Just no. Lots of good stuff itt, but this one is worse than millennial grey.
>>18712348kekWhat is millenial grey?
>>18712350not that anon but i personally think millennial gray is teh coutcome of a multitude of things, not just the outcome from one thing. but basically it is just gray washing everything, making it all bland, taking away colour. some say that this is because when you do this to a house you make it easier to sell. probably somewhat correct.
>>18712361oh ok Some photos might be uglyIt was the 80s hahahabut they are real moments anywayI feel like now that we are surrounded by ai generated images, real photos, even if they're ugly, are worth more1983_High_Tech_Industrial_Wet_Room_Shower

>>18712364o yeha those magazines were cool, i wasn't saying they were bad or filled iwth millennial gray or anything like that, they have interesting images of interiors.I agree with you 100 percent that real photos have way more value now also I like that shower
>>18711424This is definitely cool, but the other OP is right how the 70s carried over into the 80s and even parts of the 90s.That 70s wood panel basement or den went into the 80s decorated with metal band posters and then in the 90s with grunge and an old PC with DOOM loaded on.

I literally called it a "wild mix" in the title. The fact that it originated in the 70s doesn't mean it wasn't part of the actual 80s experience. We are saying the same thing.

>>18712977The point is that it’s not inherently 80s. The 1980s has a distinct look.
>>18712993Where did I say wood paneling was inherently 80s?You and the other guy are arguing with yourselves.And yes, the 80s had a distinct look, that's literally why I said in the OP that it was a "wild mix of cozy brown/beige wood paneling and insane, experimental pastel/neon color geometry" instead of the fake, clean neon media pushes.My OP literally says it was a MIX. Then the other guy comes in to say wood paneling is from the 70s which changes nothing, because it was still everywhere in the 80s and part of the actual 80s experience.Then you come in saying "he's right" when nobody is even saying he's wrong. I don't get it.

All jokes and memes aside, why did distinct decades "end"? 2010 and 2020 are completely blended, and 2030 will likely be exactly the same even though we're talking about thirty fucking years. Even my current phone is basically identical to the one I had in 2016, and the phone I had in 2016 wasn't from 2016.
>>18711408yep.Freaks And Geeks looked like the first half of the 80s, and none of it looked like The Goldbergs. Something Wild with Jeff Daniels is a lot closer to how it was.posting Memphis Design on a bike
